The 44 homes in Siena share a Mediterranean design language, with stucco exteriors, tile rooflines, and arched details typical of early-2000s gated developments in the San Fernando Valley. Home sizes in the community range from about 2,738 to 3,585 square feet, making Siena homes noticeably larger on average than the mid-century ranch homes common in older parts of Woodland Hills.
Because the community was built as a single development in 2004, the housing stock is uniform in age and condition relative to many neighboring tracts, which can simplify comparisons for buyers shopping multiple homes within the gates (source: local real estate listings).
The gated layout typically includes private interior streets maintained as part of an association, which is a departure from the publicly maintained streets common in older, ungated Woodland Hills tracts, and is a factor buyers weigh when comparing Siena to nearby non-gated neighborhoods of similar vintage.
Homes in this area of Woodland Hills offer a combination of architectural character, established landscaping, and strong community identity that attracts buyers looking for something beyond a generic suburban tract. While the broader Woodland Hills market provides a range of options, this particular pocket has its own micro-market dynamics — often with faster absorption times and tighter inventory than comparable addresses across town.
gated communities and newer planned developments carry HOA fees; older Ranch-style neighborhoods typically are non-HOA Buyers who prioritize privacy, outdoor space, and a neighbors-who-wave culture consistently point to neighborhoods like this one as undervalued relative to the broader San Fernando Valley market.
The homes in this area range from post-war single-family residences to updated modern builds, with many properties undergoing significant renovations over the past decade. Lot sizes are competitive for Los Angeles County standards. Most homes feature private outdoor space, attached garages, and mid-century design cues that have become increasingly sought-after in Southern California real estate.
Buyers with specific taste — whether for Spanish Colonial, Craftsman, or Contemporary — will find homes here that meet that brief. The range of price points within the community also means that entry-level buyers and move-up buyers often shop the same streets, which keeps demand diversified across market cycles.
This area of Woodland Hills has tracked alongside or above the broader San Fernando Valley appreciation curve over the past several years. Rental demand is also strong — single-family homes in Woodland Hills attract quality long-term tenants, making buy-and-hold strategies viable even with current interest rate environments. The Knight Group tracks off-market opportunities in this area specifically because they rarely generate open-offer situations and tend to close with less friction than listed properties.
Siena is a planned gated residential community in Woodland Hills’ hillside terrain — the master-planned Italian-village-themed development that brought the gated community residential concept to the western SFV hillside market with the Mediterranean architectural vocabulary and the community amenity package that the Siena development design created. The gated community format provides the security, the architectural consistency, and the shared amenity access (the community pool, the tennis courts, the maintained common areas) that the HOA governance structure sustains. Siena’s Italian-village aesthetic — the stucco and tile architectural language, the piazza-inspired common areas, and the landscaping palette that evokes the Mediterranean residential character — creates a distinct neighborhood identity within the Woodland Hills market that differentiates Siena from the conventional suburban residential character of the surrounding flat-grid neighborhoods. The HOA fees at Siena reflect the maintenance and amenity costs of the gated community infrastructure; buyers should review the HOA financial statements, the CC&Rs, and the pending special assessment status as part of their Siena due diligence. The community’s hillside position delivers the valley views from the upper streets that the flat Woodland Hills grid cannot provide.
The Siena community’s Italian village design creates the community atmosphere that the planned residential development philosophy specifically intends: the shared piazza spaces, the walkable internal street design, and the community amenity concentration create the neighbor-to-neighbor encounter opportunities that the isolated single-family suburban residential format rarely generates spontaneously. The community pool and the common areas provide the gathering infrastructure for the community events and the seasonal programming that the Siena HOA organizes as the social calendar that the planned community’s residents use as the neighborhood gathering infrastructure. The Siena buyer who chooses the gated community specifically for the community environment alongside the architectural character and the hillside views finds the Siena management’s ongoing investment in the community programming and the common area quality the defining differentiator between the planned community lifestyle and the equivalent single-family detached alternative at a comparable price point.
The Siena community’s Italian village design creates the specific residential experience that the intentionally smaller-scale planned community delivers: the neighbor relationships that the pedestrian-oriented internal street design fosters, the community gathering infrastructure that the shared common areas provide, and the Italian village aesthetic that the architectural vocabulary creates as the community identity marker. The Siena resident participates in both the intimate community environment of the village-scale development and the broader Woodland Hills community lifestyle — the Ventura Boulevard commercial amenity, the western SFV recreational infrastructure, and the Warner Center employment proximity that the Woodland Hills geography provides as the shared lifestyle context for all Siena residents. The community pool, the tennis courts, and the maintained common areas that the Siena HOA sustains as the shared recreational infrastructure create the year-round lifestyle amenity that the planned community format specifically delivers as the ongoing return on the HOA investment.
Fire Risk: [INSERT: confirm the specific fire hazard severity zone designation for Siena via the LA Fire Department’s current hazard map, as Woodland Hills communities closer to the Santa Monica Mountains foothills can carry higher designations than flatland tracts.]
Climate: As a newer development with consistent landscaping, Siena experiences typical San Fernando Valley summer heat, with mature plantings around the gated entry and common areas providing some shade along the street frontage.
Getting Around: The community is positioned for convenient access to Woodland Hills’ main commercial corridors along Ventura Boulevard and Topanga Canyon Boulevard, with the 101 freeway reachable within a short drive.
Schools: [INSERT: confirm current LAUSD elementary, middle, and high school assignments for this address range.]
Water: Water service is provided by the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP).
Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) serves this area. Within the neighborhood’s draw zone, families typically access Haynes Charter, Robert Frost Middle, and El Camino Real Charter. LAUSD and private school options are also available for families pursuing specialized programs in math, arts, or bilingual education. The availability of strong public schools at multiple grade levels is a consistent driver of demand in this area.
Residents commute primarily via Ventura Blvd, the 101 Freeway, and De Soto Ave, with typical drive times of 25–50 minutes to Warner Center, Burbank, and Century City. For buyers who prioritize non-freeway alternatives, local surface streets and rideshare coverage are solid. Remote work has reduced the commute calculus for many buyers in this market, but access to major employment corridors still factors into pricing at the neighborhood level.
Day-to-day conveniences are handled by The Village at Westfield Topanga, Ventura Blvd restaurant corridor, and Warner Center. Grocery options, pharmacies, fitness studios, and coffee shops are accessible without significant driving. The mix of national brands and local independents gives the area a lived-in feel that distinguishes it from purely commercial suburban centers.
Outdoor recreation centers on Topanga State Park, the Nash Bridges filming locations, and Westfield Topanga. Year-round outdoor activity is the norm in Southern California, and this neighborhood’s access to trails, parks, and recreational facilities is a meaningful part of the value proposition for active buyers. Nearby options expand the range further for buyers who prioritize specific activities like cycling, hiking, or swimming.
Pricing Snapshot: As of mid-June 2026, Woodland Hills citywide has a median sale price around $1,340,000, up 6.3% year over year, or about $614 per square foot (down 1.8% year over year), with a median list price around $1,470,000, or about $640 per square foot. About 223 homes were on the market with 67 recently sold, homes typically going pending in around 53 days at about 99.8% of list price, buyers averaging roughly four offers per home, and a typical down payment around 17.0% (source: Redfin).
Recent Sales and Inventory: Siena homes range from about 2,738 to 3,585 square feet, larger than the typical Woodland Hills home, which generally puts total sale prices above the citywide median even when the per-square-foot rate tracks close to the broader market.
Price Trends: Because all 44 homes were built in the same 2004 development, price differences within Siena tend to come down to lot position, floor plan, and updates rather than the wide age and condition variation seen in older Woodland Hills tracts, and corner or larger-lot units within the gates have historically commanded a premium over interior units of the same floor plan.
Active listings in this area of Woodland Hills have been trading in the $900K–$3.5M range for single-family homes, depending on square footage, lot size, and renovation quality. The market is sensitive to condition: fully updated homes transact at the top of the range, while fixer-upper and dated inventory sits longer and tends to attract investor offers below list. Understanding this bifurcation is essential for buyers calibrating their search budget.
The buyer profile here skews toward families seeking larger lots, Warner Center professionals, and buyers priced out of Studio City and Encino. Demand is rarely speculative — most buyers who commit to this neighborhood are making primary residence decisions tied to school zoning, commute routes, or lifestyle preferences that are not easily substituted elsewhere. This makes the market relatively resilient during broader downturns: demand does not evaporate, it waits.
Inventory has been tight relative to historical averages. Well-priced homes in move-in condition typically receive multiple offers within the first week. Overpriced or significantly deferred-maintenance properties sit considerably longer — sometimes through multiple price reductions — before finding a buyer. The Knight Group uses real-time MLS data to identify mispriced inventory and act before market corrections happen.
The price dynamics in this area are shaped by Woodland Hills offers more square footage per dollar than most Valley markets, attracting value-driven buyers. Buyers who understand these local drivers are better positioned to make competitive offers and negotiate from strength. The Knight Group’s market intelligence extends beyond list prices and includes off-market sales, pending transactions, and expired listings that paint a more complete picture of true market value in this area.
Woodland Hills is the western SFV’s most diverse housing market by price tier: the Warner Center high-rise condo zone trades $450K-$850K; the south-of-Ventura flat residential grid trades $1.0M-$1.8M for single-family; and the north-of-Ventura hillside estates command $2.0M-$5.5M+ for the view properties above the boulevard. The Warner Center employment hub (home to major employers including Warner Bros. Games, Anthem Blue Cross, and the many commercial office tenants in the WB Building and adjacent towers) creates a walk-or-bike-to-work buyer profile from the adjacent residential neighborhoods that few SFV communities can match. The Ventura Boulevard commercial corridor provides the retail and dining infrastructure; the US-101 freeway access at multiple Woodland Hills interchanges connects the western SFV to Downtown (30-35 minutes), the Westside via the 405 interchange at Calabasas (20-25 minutes), and the Conejo Valley employment corridor to the west. Woodland Hills’ appreciation over the past decade has outpaced the broader SFV average due to the Warner Center employment growth and the continued investment in the western boulevard commercial corridor.

If your target property type is not available on-market, a conversation with our team about off-market options is worth having.
Woodland Hills contains multiple distinct micro-neighborhoods, each with its own character, price range, and amenity profile.
