Sherman Oaks
The Encore Apartments is conveniently located in the southern portion of the San Fernando Valley in the heart of Sherman Oaks. Sherman Oaks is the hidden gem of the San Fernando Valley because it is a quick 20 minute drive from many Los Angeles destinations. We're close to both the 405 and the 101. Sherman Oaks also has offerings of its own, like the Van Nuys/ Sherman Oaks Recreation Center and the Sherman Oaks Galleria. Check out some of our residents’ favorite places near our community on the map below, but be sure to stop by and see the neighborhood for yourself.
