Jan. 17, 2009 - Bank Owned in Custom El Dorado Hills Neighborhood

 

     

Loch Way, El Dorado Hills, CA What an opportunity! This is one of those times when the pictures don't do justice to the home.  It was built in 1992 on just over two acres, in the beautiful upscale custom neighborhood of Sterlingshire, which is situated on the northern end of El Dorado Hills.  The home has approximately 5312 square feet, with 5 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, a den/office, an upstairs laundry, a remote game/bonus downstairs, a pool/spa, and a yard that with the right owner could be amazing.  It has wallpaper (popular in the time in the time it was built) and and redwood decking (Trex was not around then) that will need to be addressed along with the normal home inspection findings but  this home  has so much potential.  Both the circular driveway in front and the driveway going up to the garages and RV parking has insets of brick to match the use of brick on the front of the home.   This  bank owned  property is listed for $999,000 $939,000.

Jan. 8, 2009 - Beautiful Serrano Home on Golf Course

 

     

Titleist Way, El Dorado Hills, CA - It's been quiet on the home touring front with the holidays but with the new year were many new listings to see this week.  I saw several great homes today, but this one wowed me the most.  This Serrano home was built by Parker as a semi-custom in 2000. However, it is far from that now as the sellers have totally customized it through it's extensive remodel that included the addition of walls, columns, arches, and wood beams.  The home is nestled between the quaint street and the 8th green of the Serrano Golf Course.  You can see the beautiful golf course views and the local views from the nook, family room, ground floor master bedroom, and the cozy bonus upstairs.  It has just over 3000 square, 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and other added features such as a refrigerated wine room, three fireplaces (bonus, master bedroom, office),  and a built in BBQ.  It is listed at $1,035,000.

Welcome to my Best of the El Dorado Hills weblog! The Hills I refer to here are the foothills east of the Sacramento Valley. My inspiration for this blog came as a result of my Real Estate profession where touring homes and knowing the inventory are some of the best parts of my job. Though my predominant intention here is to tell you about the homes for sale that have wow’d me, I also want to include what I consider to be among “other bests” of living in this wonderful area. You can search by categories, by clicking on the links below, or click on a tag word under one of my postings for more blogs about that subject. The prices shown on each blog is as of the date written. I'll try and update them when time allows. Please keep in mind that sometimes the pictures don't do a home justice, but they are what the listing agent has submitted to the MLS and what I have to work with. For more pictures or information on any of these postings or for help in locating similar homes available in our area, please contact me by clicking on the “Email Me” link below. Be sure and check out My Favorite Links for more helpful sites. Blog postings with * following the name indicate that the home has been sold and is no longer available.
