Irvine, Calif., (September 14 , 2026) –  The Sanctuary at Thousand Oaks, a new multifamily community in Newbury Park developed in partnership with Prime Life Technologies Corp, is now leasing and open for tours. The Sanctuary marks MBK Rental Living’s third community delivered in 2026, following Las Brisas in Santa Maria and Vintage Farms in Murrieta. 

Set on the historic grounds of the Timber School, originally constructed in 1924 and recognized as the oldest existing school and public building in the Conejo Valley, the development brings renewed purpose to a significant community site. 

“New communities are too often designed around trends that fade quickly,” said Ken McCarren, President of MBK Rental Living. “The Sanctuary takes a different approach – one that is shaped by history, designed with intention, and built to remain relevant over time. When you have the opportunity to work with a site that has been a part of the community for more than 100 years, the responsibility is not just to preserve it—but to ensure it continues to have a purpose.” 

Residences include a mix of studio, one-, and two-bedroom apartment homes ranging from 628 to 1,429 square feet. Interiors are thoughtfully designed with an emphasis on natural light, functional layouts, and materials selected for durability and longevity including and quartz countertops, stainless-steel appliances and wood-style flooring. Finishes and color schemes are intentionally refined, creating homes that feel more like a true residence than a typical apartment. Select floorplans also include patios or balconies and kitchen islands. 

Amenities throughout the community are designed to support everyday living. Residents have access to a secluded pool, a 24-hour fitness center, dog wash, several co-working pods and a multipurpose lounge, along with a network of Spanish-style courtyards designed to provide both connection and retreat. Gathering spaces throughout the community include indoor and outdoor lounges and shaded seating areas beneath heritage oak trees, including a kids retreat space. 

Honoring the Past with Renewed Purpose   

The Timber School, long considered a defining civic landmark in Newbury Park, has been carefully preserved and reintroduced as the heart of the community—ensuring its legacy continues as an active and lived experience rather than a preserved artifact. 

Original classrooms have been transformed into the community’s leasing, library, and co-working environments—designed as quiet, functional spaces for focus and everyday use. The former auditorium has been reimagined as a fitness center, maintaining its role as a central gathering space, while the original kitchen has been adapted into a grab-and-go cafe, offering a natural continuation of its historic purpose. 

This approach preserves not only the structure of the building’s original intent, but the intent of the spaces, ensuring the buildings continue to bring people together in meaningful and relevant ways. The newly constructed apartment homes are set behind the historic buildings, creating a layered residential environment that balances heritage and contemporary design. 

Notable preservation and repurposing elements include: 

• The exterior design of the school structure has been maintained or refurbished including the Spanish roof tiles, windows, exterior stucco and cupola  

• The site’s legacy is commemorated with a two historical plaques designed by members of the community and historic photography depicting the school’s past throughout the shared spaces 

• A docent will be onsite throughout the year during various weekends offering residents and visitors the opportunity to learn more about the Timber School’s past and its impact on Newbury Park  

“The most compelling communities are the ones that feel connected to something larger than themselves,” said McCarren. “At The Sanctuary, we were able to develop on a site with a long-standing history in the community, resulting in a place that feels established, intentional, and meaningful from day one.” 

The Sanctuary also incorporates MBK Rental Living’s With Our World sustainability program, integrating energy-efficient systems and environmentally conscious design practices to support long-term performance and resident well-being. 

Located in the Newbury Park neighborhood on the western edge of Thousand Oaks, The Sanctuary enjoys scenic views and nearby access to cafes, restaurants, shopping centers and entertainment venues. Nature lovers will appreciate the extensive network of wilderness trails and community parks, including Dos Vientos Community Park and Wildwood Regional Park. The community is served by the award-winning Conejo Valley Unified School District and offers convenient access to the U.S. 101 Freeway for local outings or commutes in Ventura County and beyond.  

MBK Rental Living is currently leasing apartment communities across California and Colorado, including Vintage Farms in Murrieta, Solana in Duarte and Zia in Anaheim in Southern California; Vida in Morgan Hill, The Haven in Petaluma, and Ona in Natomas in Northern California with their JV partner Hines; Las Brisas in Santa Maria in Central California; and Alexan Peña Station in Denver with Trammel Crow and The Aven in Colorado Springs with Hines.

ANAHEIM, Calif. (November 20, 2024) – Zia, a premier luxury apartment community, and Radiant Beer Co., a local craft brewery, have teamed up to create a unique and refreshing beer experience. The two neighboring businesses recently launched “The Zia,” a limited-edition hazy IPA, and hosted a successful launch party for beer enthusiasts.
The event, held in early November, drew a crowd of craft beer lovers who enjoyed the new brew and received a complimentary Zia pint glass as a souvenir. This collaboration celebrates the spirit of community and highlights the synergy between two local businesses.

We look forward to continuing work with Zia and providing our customers with new, creative, and unexpected ways to experience and connect with their neighborhood.”

Now open and leasing, the five-story, wrap-style apartment community is located at 1600 W. Lincoln and offers upscale living with easy access to downtown Anaheim, Interstate 5, and Disneyland.

IRVINE, Calif. (April 15, 2024) – MBK Rental Living, one of California’s most successful and innovative private developers, is proud to announce the launch of With Our World, a comprehensive program to create healthier living spaces that better serve their residents while caring for the planet.

“With Our World represents a strategic evolution in our development philosophy,” says Ken McCarren, President of MBK Rental Living. “This program goes beyond incorporating eco-friendly features. It establishes a comprehensive approach to sustainable living, empowering residents, fostering a sense of community, and minimizing our environmental impact.”

The pioneering program is organized into three tracks: pro-people, pro-planet, and pro-action. The first, pro-people, provides above-and-beyond amenities to enhance each resident’s quality of life. The second, pro-planet, focuses on high-performance, conscious design that reduces each residential community’s environmental impact. The final, pro-action, encourages residents to engage with their surrounding community and act on matters that are important to them.

“This three-tier approach sets With Our World apart from other green initiatives,” explains Lisa Cabral, Senior Manager of Marketing and Design at MBK. “With Our World allows us to celebrate sustainable and responsible living, elevate it as a central tenet of our residences, and prove that it can be done without sacrificing comfort or at the expense of great design.”

The first residential community to debut the With Our World program is Vida at Morgan Hill, a Class-A, 389-unit, three-story residential community in Morgan Hill, California that recently celebrated its grand opening. There, a mix of high-tech and thoughtful design decisions, including on-site solar panels, EV charging stations, and smart thermostats, make it easy for residents to enjoy a high quality of life while leaving a lighter footprint.

The program will then be rolled out across other MBK residential communities, both new and existing. While sustainability has always been a key consideration of every MBK project, the With Our World initiative reinforces the company’s ongoing commitment to developing spaces that support both residents and the wider community. It also aligns with the core tenets of MBK’s parent company, Mitsui & Co., whose focus on business innovation to “build “brighter futures, everywhere” includes a strong commitment to environmental and social sustainability.

“We look forward to providing new housing opportunities that showcase this sustainable approach to life in 2024 and beyond,” said Cabral.
