What Policy 8.4 means for a remodel

The General Plan 2045 names the Eichler homes, along with Case Study House No. 28, in Land Use Policy 8.4, under which the City will strive to maintain the architectural integrity of developments that represent notable styles in Thousand Oaks. The Eichler Network reports that the tract has no historic designation or design guidelines.

That leaves the specifics to the permit process. Before you buy with a remodel in mind, ask the City’s Planning Division what review an addition, a new roofline or a second unit would need on that lot, and look up the address’s past permits on TO/24, the City’s online land use service. Additions do happen here: the Eichler Network describes a sizable second-story office addition on Fordham Avenue.

Thousand Oaks Eichler questions, answered

Is the tract a City historic landmark?

Not on the General Plan 2045’s list, adopted December 5, 2023. That list of City landmarks runs from the Stagecoach Inn to the former Jungleland site and adds Case Study House No. 28, placed on the National Register in 2013, but not the Eichler tract; Policy 8.4 is where the plan names it.

Why do some listings here look different from an Eichler?

Because the search area takes in the tract’s neighbors too. Check the year built and the builder named in each listing. To look beyond it, browse Thousand Oaks homes for sale citywide, or have a Thousand Oaks real estate agent flag new Eichler listings for you.

How do I find the tract?

Look for the Eichler Homes sign at the corner of Lynn Road and Camino Manzanas, installed in 2014 as a community project, according to the Eichler Network. Tarantula Hill, a hiking area, sits beside the homes.
