Looking for a new home? It seems everywhere in San Diego County there is lots of inventory in various new home builder communities. In Escondido and Valley Center, two inland North County communities have some extra special buys for those looking for large homes and lots, convenience to freeways and shopping, and at what might now be considered “bargain” prices.

The City of Escondido is a vibrant community of about 150,000 people. The downtown Grand Avenue area has experienced quite a renaissance; lots of new restaurants, coffee bistro’s, cafe’s and art galleries dot the street that’s very “walk friendly”. Just a block away is the California Center For The Arts, which boasts a Conference Center, Children’s Museum, two Theaters, an Educational Complex and Visual Arts Museum. Just across the Street is Grape Day Park, which hosts Escondido’s annual Grape Day parade and the Escondido History Center. Just a few miles away is Escondido’s world famous Wild Animal Park.

A new master planned community, Eureka Springs offers five different communites priced as low as the upper $300,000′s. These homes are built by two fine builder’s – Lennar & Centex Homes.

At The Terraces, you can buy up a good sized home of 2328 square feet for under $400,000. Step up to The Briars (3198 square feet) or The Groves (2970 square feet), and you can get a very large home in the $400,000′s. Sister neighborhoods The Steppes (3574 sqare feet) and The Knolls (3844 square feet) will only dent your wallet to the tune of the low $500,000′s!

But as the builder’s say….”there is a catch”. The catch is that these prices are good for one day only, January 19th, but don’t worry, you’ll still get a bargain if you happen to be a little further down the road if you not quite ready to purchase.

Valley Center, Escondido’s sleepy small neighbor about 5 miles Northeast, is where you want to go for a little more “country”. Valley Center is currently undergoing a bit of a change from a small rural town to a beautiful “bedroom community”. Valley Center’s “Western Days” festival is held every year over the Memorial Day weekend.

There is a beautiful new home development in between Valley Center proper and Hwy 15 called Rancho Vallecito. This develpment, built by RWR Homes, consists of Estate sized homes (3500-4200 square feet) on lots that are from 2.9 acres on up to over 7 acres with fabulous views that go on forever. Best of all is that these homes, with all the square footage, privacy, views and acreage are currently priced starting from the mid 700,000′s!

To add the cherry to the top of all this good news is that all of the builder’s are willing also to provide additional incentives (check with each builder for details, or call us) like rate buydowns, design center credits and landscaping allowances.
