Woodland Hills, CA
Walnut Acres
Walnut Acres is a large-lot residential district in Woodland Hills' 91367 zip code, zoned RA-1 for very low density and agricultural use, a designation confirmed directly in a published California Court of Appeal opinion covering a representative parcel here. That zoning permits horse-keeping and other agricultural uses, and it comes with a documented trade-off: RA zoning precludes curbs, sidewalks, and streetlights on interior streets. Typical lots run 27,000 to 54,000 square feet, per city records, more conservative than the one-to-two-acre figure that circulates in marketing. The Walnut Acres Neighborhood Association, a real incorporated nonprofit, sued the City of Los Angeles over an oversized eldercare facility proposed on Fallbrook Avenue and won a published appellate decision forcing the city to rescind its approval. Fallbrook Avenue itself carries a city Major Highway classification where it borders the neighborhood. Jim's Fallbrook Market, a family-owned grocery at Fallbrook and Oxnard, has served the area for decades, and George Ellery Hale Charter Academy sits directly on Califa Street within the neighborhood's footprint.

Frequently asked
Is Walnut Acres a gated community?
No source found describes it as gated, and its open street grid, without curbs or sidewalks as a direct result of RA-1 zoning, is inconsistent with a gated subdivision. Confirm with a specific property before assuming otherwise.
Can I keep horses in Walnut Acres?
The area is zoned RA-1, Residential-Agricultural, which a published Court of Appeal opinion and the city's own zoning-administrator record both confirm permits animal-keeping, including horses, at least for the immediate neighborhood covered in that case. Confirm zoning for any specific parcel before purchase.
Is there a homeowners association, and are dues mandatory?
There's a real, incorporated neighborhood association, the Walnut Acres Neighborhood Association, with demonstrated legal standing, but it functions as a voluntary civic association rather than a CC&R-governed HOA with mandatory assessments, per its own mission statement.
How big are the lots?
An official city council record puts typical lot sizes at 27,000 to 54,000 square feet, roughly six-tenths to just over an acre, more conservative than the one-to-two-acre figure that circulates on real estate marketing sites.
Has anything major ever threatened to change the neighborhood's character?
Yes. Between 2012 and 2015, a developer sought to build a 60-room, roughly 50,000-square-foot eldercare facility on Fallbrook Avenue that exceeded RA-1 zoning limits several times over. The neighborhood association and residents sued and won a published Court of Appeal decision forcing the city to rescind its approval.
Is there a grocery store within walking distance?
Jim's Fallbrook Market, a family-owned grocery operating since 1946, sits at Fallbrook Avenue and Oxnard Street at the neighborhood's edge, confirmed open as of July 2026, a rare bit of commercial use inside a neighborhood that's otherwise almost entirely residential.
