Enjoy Los Angeles to its fullest. Conveniently located off 101/405 fwy. Steps away from Lake Balboa Park & Ventura Blvd. 3 miles from Van Nuys Flyaway Terminal, 8 miles from Universal Studios, 12 miles from West LA, around 30 minute drive to LAX, Malibu/Sta Monica beach, 6 Flags Magic Mountain, Pasadena, Hollywood, Downtown LA & tons of hiking trails. Encino prides itself for being one of the safest neighborhoods in LA. It is filled with families fond of the outdoors. It’s normal to see people around taking a walk with their dogs, jogging towards nearby parks, or walking towards Ventura Blvd to dine and shop. *the famous lake balboa park is walking distance . The intersection of the 405 and 101 highways is located in Los Angeles, California. There are numerous things to do near this intersection and in the surrounding areas. Here are some popular attractions and activities: 1 Universal Studios Hollywood: Located near the intersection, Universal Studios offers thrilling rides, live entertainment, and behind-the-scenes tours of a working movie studio. 2 Getty Center: Situated west of the intersection, the Getty Center is a renowned art museum featuring an extensive collection of European paintings, sculptures, and decorative arts. 3 Santa Monica Pier: Head west on the 10 freeway from the intersection to reach the iconic Santa Monica Pier, where you can enjoy amusement park rides, dining options, and beautiful ocean views. 4 The Getty Villa: Located in the Pacific Palisades neighborhood near the coast, the Getty Villa is an art museum dedicated to ancient Greek, Roman, and Etruscan art and culture. 5 Hollywood Walk of Fame: Take the 101 freeway southbound to Hollywood Boulevard etc

Encino is a gem in LA. The perfect blend of suburban feel and city life without the noise. Less than a mile is the Balboa sports park where an array of sports are available to take advantage (Basketball, Soccer, Baseball, Tennis, Pickle ball, Archery, Cricket) *Kids playground *Running trails that lead to Lake Balboa (famous for fishing, aqua cycle paddle boats, picnic) *Lots of golf courses Encino is known to be a very safe neighborhood. It consists of families fond of the outdoors. It’s normal to see people around taking a walk with their dogs, jogging towards nearby parks, or walking towards Ventura Blvd to dine and shop. It is very conveniently accessible to both 101 and 405 Freeways; so limited time spent on side streets just to get to freeways. Encino’s concentration of parks, green spaces, and recreational venues provide endless opportunity for healthy activities. The Sepulveda Basin Recreation Area offers multiple golf courses, baseball diamonds, soccer fields, bicycle racing tracks, cricket grounds and tennis courts.
