Once upon a time, Mountain House was an unknown spot somewhere between Livermore and Tracy. Now, it is a bustling community<\/a> with all the bells and whistles of more established cities. Minus the traffic congestion and inflated prices, though. Several years ago, some friends of ours bought a home in Mountain House, CA. They had wanted to buy a home for a while but housing in this area didn\u2019t fit their needs. But, they still wanted to stay close enough to commute back here for work. Then, not too long ago, another family we know bought a new home in Mountain House. That family of four was able to get a huge house with a separate in-law suite for her parents. Yet, it was only a fraction of what they\u2019d pay for a much smaller structure in the heart of the San Francisco Bay Area.<\/p>\n

Grand Opening of Inspirato Homes in Mountain House, CA<\/h3>\n

New homes are continually being built in Mountain House. Frans and I recently attended the grand opening of the Inspirato homes<\/a> in Cordes Village. The new collection consists of four two-story floor plans by Richmond American Homes. These were on display for potential homebuyers with three model homes to tour. Who doesn’t love to tour model homes and pick up some expert decor ideas?! The multifunctional floor plans range from 2,080 to 2,500 square feet with 3-5 bedrooms, up to three bathrooms, and many personalization room options. Prices start from the low $500,000s. That is super impressive, especially when you take into consideration how much you get with that!<\/p>\n

Each of these homes has a completely different feel. It was also interesting that each home featured photos of families from different nationalities. One home had photos of an Asian family, another with an African-American family, and one with a Caucasian family. This might be a minor detail to some but, to me, this detail showed how vested the builder (and the designer they hired) are in catering to a diverse group of homeowners. Decor items and color schemes in each home differed slightly as well.<\/p>\n

To see what I mean, take a peek into each one. I will warn you now \u2014 the decor is beautiful! So, make sure you go through each slideshow and take notes. \ud83d\ude42 FYI, I took so many photos that it took forever to narrow it down to these. Can you tell which model home I liked best? (hint: I’m craving a summer BBQ cookout…)<\/p>\n

        What I loved about the Inspirato homes was how cozy they were. By cozy, I don\u2019t mean small. The floorplans were generous. But, the way spaces were arranged made the houses feel more like family homes than swanky display pieces. It was clear that much attention was given to areas where families would spend most of their time \u2014 the living room, kitchen, bathrooms, and backyard space. What impressed Frans the most was how cleanly the homes were finished and the quality of the construction. They didn\u2019t seem like rushed, cheap structures at all. In fact, it was quite the opposite and I found myself mentally moving into a couple of the homes as we toured them!<\/p>\n

        Multi-Generational Living for Family & Friends<\/h3>\n

        The Inspirato homes will appeal to families and first-time buyers. For multi-generational families or for those that often host overnight or extended guests, the Sundance II floor plans<\/a> in Hansen may be a better fit. These have a secondary suite for a more comfortable stay or residence. Homes with this optional suite start in the low $600,000s or mid $700,000s.<\/p>\n
