Masongrove Townhomes in Chatsworth, CA (10201 Mason Avenue)

Written by Antonio Vaziri, Realtor, Epique Realty, DRE #01927866 · Last updated October 2026

One street address, 140 homes. Every townhome at Masongrove shares the same number, 10201 Mason Avenue, and is told apart only by its unit number. The community sits on Mason Avenue between Devonshire Street and Lassen Street in Chatsworth, on a single 7.6-acre parcel, and every unit was built in 1980. I have been part of four sales here since 2014, the most recent in June 2025, so this guide mixes the public record with what I have seen in those escrows.

Listings and appraisals sometimes write the name as "Mason Grove." The association's own website uses "Masongrove Homeowners Association," which is the spelling this page follows.

The four floor plans, measured in square feet

The Los Angeles County Assessor lists every one of the 140 units with its living area and bedroom count. Only four sizes appear, which makes Masongrove unusually easy to compare unit against unit.

Living area Bedrooms Units Share of community
1,520 sq ft 2 48 34%
1,534 sq ft 2 54 39%
1,623 sq ft 3 6 4%
1,711 sq ft 3 32 23%

Source: LA County Assessor parcel records for 10201 Mason Avenue, checked October 4, 2026. Bathroom counts vary by unit because some owners have remodeled; the MLS also shows one three-bedroom record at 1,718 square feet.

The layouts are multi-level. Some sale records list two levels and others list three or more, so walk the specific unit before you assume a floor plan. When I listed a two-bedroom here in 2016, it had two primary suites, which is a common reason buyers ask about these plans.

How the monthly dues have climbed since 2014

When Monthly dues shown Where the figure comes from
September 2014 $373 MLS record of a closed sale
November 2015 $400 Email from the management company to me
August 2016 $450 MLS record of a closed sale
September 2022 $518 MLS record of a closed sale
2025 sales $635 to $637.73 MLS records of five closed sales
2026 sales and listings $714 to $715 (one record shows $684) MLS records, March to September 2026

That is close to a doubling in twelve years, and about a 13 percent step between the 2025 and 2026 records. On the 2025 and 2026 records, listing agents named items such as water, sewer, trash, cable TV, grounds care and earthquake insurance as covered; not every record lists the same items.

Check before you count on a number. Dues above are taken from listings and one management email on the dates shown; they are not a quote. Ask the association, through escrow, for the current budget, the reserve study, the insurance summary and any special assessment. In a 2025 escrow I worked on, escrow quoted the management company's fee for the resale document package at $635, with faster turnaround available for an added charge.

CRMLS Matrix, every closed sale recorded at 10201 Mason Avenue from January 1, 2024 through October 4, 2026, pulled October 4, 2026. Unit numbers are left off on purpose.

Two patterns stand out. The 1,711 square foot three-bedroom plan has held a narrow band, $685,000 to $720,000, across four sales in 2024 and 2025. The two-bedroom homes have drifted the other way: from $619,000 to $669,000 in 2024 down to $590,000 to $607,000 in 2026. The lowest result, $530,000 for a 1,623 square foot three-bedroom in September 2026, came after 118 days and a first asking price of $649,000; the record does not say why, which is a reminder that condition and timing can outweigh square footage.

The longer view, year by year

Year Sales Median price
2012 5 $263,000
2016 11 $370,500
2019 6 $440,000
2021 12 $510,000
2022 8 $578,500
2024 5 $639,000
2025 5 $685,000
2026 (to Oct 4) 4 $595,000

Medians mix two- and three-bedroom sales, so a year with more three-bedroom closings reads higher. The 2025 median reflects three of five sales being three-bedroom homes.

On the market right now

On October 4, 2026, one Masongrove home was active in the MLS: a 1,534 square foot two-bedroom asking $599,000, listed for 157 days. Nothing was in escrow and no unit was offered for lease. With 140 homes and roughly five sales a year since 2023, a buyer who wants a specific plan may need to wait.

Leasing a Masongrove townhome

Five Masongrove leases closed in the MLS between August 2025 and July 2026, at $3,000, $3,150, $3,500, $3,500 and $3,500 a month. The three-bedroom in that group, a 1,623 square foot plan, leased at $3,500, the same as two of the two-bedroom homes. Back in 2019, two-bedroom leases here closed at $2,600 to $2,750.

Owners who plan to rent should read the current rules on lease terms and tenant registration before buying. Those rules are not shown in the MLS records, so ask the management company for them in writing.

Pets, rules and the documents to request

Several sale records mark the community as "Pets Permitted" with "Pet Rules," without giving the limits. The association adopted a revised set of rules and regulations in 2008, which the management company sent to me in 2015; rules may have changed since. Owners have online access to association documents through the portal linked from masongrovehoa.com. Before you remove contingencies, read at least these:

  • CC&Rs, bylaws and the current rules and regulations
  • Current operating budget and the most recent reserve study
  • Master insurance summary, including whether earthquake coverage is carried and its deductible
  • Board meeting minutes from the last 12 months and any notice of special assessment
  • Any parking, pet, leasing, satellite dish, barbecue or EV charging policy

Lender approval and condo eligibility can change, so ask your lender to confirm early.

My own record at Masongrove

My work here goes back to 2014, when I represented the buyer of a two-bedroom townhome. In 2016 I listed and sold that same home for the same client. I was also part of the purchase of a three-bedroom unit in 2022 and its sale in June 2025. Four escrows in one 140-unit community have taught me where the questions usually come up: dues history, the resale document package, garage condition and which plan a buyer is actually comparing against.

Own a Masongrove townhome? With only four plan sizes, I can price yours against the exact same floor plan rather than a neighborhood average. Ask for a value estimate on your unit, or reach me by call or text at 818-381-9977.
