The largest master-planned community in Conejo Valley

Dos Vientos Ranch, also known simply as Dos Vientos or DV, sits at the westernmost edge of Newbury Park and the foothills of the majestic Santa Monica Mountains. This master-planned community takes its name from the “dos vientos,” or two winds, which blow through the valley, providing comfortable weather year-round. It’s this gorgeous climate, among other factors, that make the neighborhood highly sought-after. “Dos Vientos definitely ranks as one of the most desired areas in town,” says local property manager Michael Rain. “There’s a laidback lifestyle people expect from Conejo Valley. You see a lot of families settle in the area thanks to great schools and lots of opportunities for employment. It’s a nice place to settle down.” Mary McQueen concurs, a Realtor Better Homes and Gardens for 20 years and an on-and-off resident of Dos Vientos for just as long. “The people who live here are very friendly,” she says. “It’s highly desirable for families. There are great schools and activities and sports like soccer and volleyball. And the Conejo Recreation and Park District is amazing.”

Rolling hills and splendid homes

Dos Vientos can be divided into about 24 different housing developments, all built starting in the late 1980s. “The developments are newer than most others in Conejo Valley,” McQueen says. “And houses have various different looks, if you want something traditional, Mediterranean or modern.” Although many homes tend to take inspiration from Spanish-Mediterranean architecture, with red-shingled roofs lined with rich gold hues, split-levels, Colonial Revival, Tudor Revival and ranch-style homes appear on the market as well. Lawns are immaculately well-kept while other residents decorate their mulched or rock garden yards with desert succulents and the flora of California. Most subdivisions offer sidewalks. Single-family homes spanning 2,000 square feet or less tend to go for between $800,000 and $1.3 million. Farther up the rolling hills, home prices can start around $1.5 million, getting up to $3 million or more.

Keeping active in Dos Vientos

Residents are never far from the outdoors, with hiking trails abounding through the hills that separate subdivisions. Hikers are well-rewarded at the summits, taking in splendid views of Conejo Valley. A few parks can be found within the neighborhood like Dos Vientos Community Park and Del Prado Playfields, which offer several playgrounds.

Special events

The Conejo Recreation & Park District organizes several events like a flashlight egg hunt at Del Prado Playfields, kids who collect all 10 eggs earning a prize. Thousand Oaks is perhaps most famous for Conejo Valley Days, a multi-week festival featuring carnival rides, live music, lots of food and more.

Shopping and dining inside and outside Dos Vientos

Residents are several miles away from stores like The Home Depot and Target found at shopping centers like Village Mall. Fortunately, Newbury Park Plaza is at the center of Dos Vientos, and residents can pick up groceries from Albertson’s, pharmaceuticals from CVS or coffee from Starbucks. Similarly, the bulk of restaurants can be found closer to Thousand Oaks like El Sancho Loco Taqueria, known for having some of the best micheladas in town, and Side Street Café, a popular brunch spot. But there are a few local coffee shops and eateries within the neighborhood, like Honey Cup Coffeehouse and Country Harvest, which serves up comfort food like fried steak with biscuits and gravy.
