It is crazy expensive to live here in San Francisco Bay Area! Rents are through the roof and, if you have any hope of buying a home of your own, expect to pay top dollar for an old, run-down fixer-upper on a tiny lot in an iffy neighborhood. It’s no wonder that many families are heading inland to areas like Mountain House, CA to settle down and call it home. Mountain House, about five miles west of Tracy, is a new home community that continues to grow with multi-generational housing which varies in size and pricing. In fact, Frans and I attended a huge 2-day grand opening there a couple weekends ago. The event featured three new communities with ten new model homes in the Cordes Village and Hansen areas.
May 2018 Grand Opening of New Homes in Mountain House, CA
The new neighborhoods included Cascada by Woodside Homes, Savannah II by Signature Homes, and Wellington by Richmond American Homes. These homes are perfect for families of all sizes. They offer spacious, open floorplans, gorgeously accented kitchens and bathrooms, and come with optional rental or in-law units (either attached or detached). With ten new layouts, options, and design styles, prospective buyers are sure to find the perfect home to fit their personal needs and wants. Families will love the fact that there are several parks and highly-rated schools (five elementary and one high school) nearby.
New Homes in Mountain House, CA — Cascada by Woodside Homes
The first neighborhood Frans and I toured was Cascada by Woodside Homes. We loved how these new homes in Mountain House were set up. The rooms were nicely appointed without feeling too complex or over-the-top. If we were looking to buy a house, we would probably choose one from among these floorplans. The master bedroom walk-in closets were impressive and proper laundry rooms could act as a great hideout for “me time” between loads. The optional studio or 1-bdrm in-law suites, located above the detached garage, were just the right size and included everything necessary for a relaxed work or living space. From the upper $500,000s.

Finally, we jumped back in the car and make our way over to the Wellington models by Richmond American Homes.

There’s no end of ways to customize these new homes in Mountain House. Depending on your lifestyle, choose expansive rooms, gourmet kitchens, deluxe master retreats, breakfast nooks, studies, and lofts. Take advantage of the generous living spaces and inviting backyard areas for year-round house parties or summer barbecue cookouts. Two of the three model homes even had attached in-law or rental units. From the low $700,000s.
