Crescent Oaks is 66 homes on a handful of cul de sacs at the quiet east end of North Ranch, where the tract homes stop and the Whitehawk custom homes begin. It suits families who want a four or five bedroom house on a real lot, low dues and no gate. Homes sold for about $2.08M to $3.31M in 2024 through 2026.
Turn off Misty Creek Road onto one of the short courts here and the Conejo Valley goes quiet fast. Most streets in Crescent Oaks dead end in a circle of a few houses, with mature landscaping, hillside behind the back fences and little traffic beyond the neighbors. It is the kind of place where kids ride bikes in the street. Built in 1988 and 1989 at the edge of North Ranch, it shares the setting of the custom home streets next door.

Cul de sacs at the quiet end of North Ranch
Crescent Oaks sits on the courts off Misty Creek Road and Stone Mountain Lane, at the eastern edge of North Ranch. Nearly every street is a cul de sac, and one Stone Mountain Lane court holds just five homes with nothing directly across or behind. That layout is the whole point. Traffic is limited to the people who live there, the landscaping has had more than thirty years to mature, and listings here regularly point to hillside and mountain views.
Its next door neighbor is Whitehawk, the custom home enclave where Grey Feather Court actually continues across the line. Living here means you share that setting, the same hills, the same quiet, while the homes themselves are tract built.
The trade off is the one that applies across this side of Westlake Village. You get hillside views and calm streets, but you drive to shops and restaurants. Nobody here is walking to coffee.
The homes: four and five bedrooms on real lots
All 66 homes went up in 1988 and 1989. They run about 2,800 to 3,400 square feet with four or five bedrooms, which is a comfortable family size for the era and for the lots they sit on.
Lots are where this neighborhood gets interesting. The smallest is about a quarter acre, the largest is just over an acre, and the typical lot is around a third of an acre. That is enough room for a pool, a usable yard and some privacy from the neighbors, and on the bigger lots it starts to feel like a custom home property.
Because the lot sizes vary so much, two homes of similar square footage can sell for very different prices. For a sense of how other nearby neighborhoods compare, see our guides to Emerald Forest and Island Forest.
Thousand Oaks city, Westlake Village address, small HOA
This confuses almost every buyer, so here it is plainly. Crescent Oaks is inside the City of Thousand Oaks, in Ventura County, with a Westlake Village mailing address. City services, permits and local taxes come from Thousand Oaks. It is not part of the City of Westlake Village on the Los Angeles County side.
The neighborhood is not gated, which surprises people who hear North Ranch and assume a guard house. It also does not have its own association. The homes belong to the Westlake Ranch Property Owners Association, a multi tract group managed by the Emmons Company, with dues of about $27 to $40 a month. At that level you should not expect a pool or a gate. Read the CC&Rs, the budget and any architectural rules in escrow if you plan to remodel or add on.
Schools
Crescent Oaks is in the Conejo Valley Unified School District. The assigned schools are Westlake Hills Elementary, Colina Middle School and Westlake High School. Boundaries can run close to neighborhood edges, so confirm the specific address with the district before you write an offer.
Who it suits and what to know before buying
Crescent Oaks fits a buyer who wants North Ranch for the setting and the schools, needs four or five bedrooms, and would rather spend on a bigger lot and a quiet street than on a gate or a clubhouse. It is a natural move up from the smaller tracts around Westlake Village and an alternative to the custom homes nearby.
Homes sold for about $2.08M to $3.31M in 2024 through 2026, with the middle of the market near $2.7M. Only a handful of homes change hands in a typical year, so pricing leans on the wider North Ranch market as much as on the neighborhood itself. Our Westlake Village home values page tracks that broader picture.
- Age of the homes. These are 1988 and 1989 houses. Roofs, plumbing, electrical panels and original pools vary from one owner to the next, so inspect each home on its own merits.
- Lot matters as much as the house. Check the lot size on any home you consider. A third of an acre and a full acre are very different properties at the same square footage.
- Hillside location. As with other homes backing to open slopes in the Conejo Valley, ask about insurance and brush clearance early.
- City and county. Thousand Oaks and Ventura County, not Westlake Village and Los Angeles County, for everything official.
