Tarzana is a quiet, established residential community in the western San Fernando Valley known for its large lots, tree-lined streets, and a strong homeowner culture that consistently invests in renovation and property improvement. The neighborhood sits between Encino and Woodland Hills along Ventura Boulevard, and its mix of large post-war homes and newer construction makes it an active market for ADU construction, home remodeling, and room additions. APLA Construction (CA Lic #1136359) is a Valley-based licensed general contractor serving Tarzana with residential and small commercial construction.
Tarzana’s large lot sizes — many properties exceed 8,000 sq ft — make the neighborhood ideal for detached ADU construction.

Tarzana falls under the City of Los Angeles jurisdiction (LADBS), with the state-mandated 60-day permit processing time.
