About Granada Hills, California

What do actor Cuba Gooding Jr. and actress Ashley Judd have in common? Aside from both receiving well-deserved Emmy nominations for their enjoyable performances, they also share the same home town: beautiful Granada Hills, CA. That’s not the only name you’ll recognize from this small town: Football legend and Super Bowl winner John Elway (quarterback of the Denver Broncos) is also from this suburb in the San Fernando Valley.

Drive east along the Ronald Reagan Freeway from San Fernando, cross the San Fernando Freeway, and you’ll find yourself in beautiful Granada Hills, CA.

Today, Granada Hills CA real estate is primarily homes (along with some beautiful parks, like O'Melveny Park and Limekiln Canyon Park), but you can still see glimpses of the type of real estate it was many years ago: imagine row upon row of citrus trees in vast orchards, offering some of the freshest and most delicious oranges, lemons, and grapefruits in the country.

Now a bustling suburb of Los Angeles, Granada offers real estate investors and prospective home owners something equally as fresh: a home that is close to the center of the action – it’s just minutes down the San Fernando freeway to Los Angeles – while still offering real estate that has the look and feel of a smaller town. It is quiet enough here that you won’t feel hemmed in by the big city, but it’s busy enough that you’ll never be bored. Spend five minutes here and you’ll have no doubt why Granada Hills CA is called San Fernando Valley’s “most neighborly town”. Drive down the street and you just might see someone wave at you.

Granada Hills embodies what many people feel is missing from the hustle and bustle of modern America: a slightly slower pace, a smile, and a friendly hello from strangers.

Granada Hills CA was founded 80 years ago and has grown from a citrus farmer’s orchard into a bedroom community that’s not too sleepy. Real estate investors and home owners who want to be close to Los Angeles without actually being IN Los Angeles, are turning to places like Granada Hills CA.

Granada Hills CA has all the amenities that you’d want in any city – including a high school, library, and access to Los Angeles – but it also has something special: Mission Point, the highest spot in Granada Hills. From here you can turn your back on civilization, look out over the lush San Fernando Valley, and feel like you are exploring the area anew.

Looking for a place to call home? What more could you want! You’re just a stone’s throw from Los Angeles, from beautiful oceans thundering on sunny beaches, and from the serene San Fernando Valley. Who knows, perhaps owning a home here means that you’ll be the parent of the next Emmy nominated actress or Super Bowl winner.
