Best of the El Dorado Hills

Blog by DeeDee Riley
El Dorado Hills, California

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.

Categorized in: Best Views

 

Ridgeview Drive, El Dorado Hills, CA - This "Best Find" was built in 1982 but went through updating and remodeling in 2006.   As you walk into the entry you can either go up the stairs to the main level where you'll find the kitchen, living room, dining room, master suite, office, and laundry room or you can go down stairs to the other 3 bedrooms. The kitchen was remodeled using antique white cabinetry and granite that show beautifully.  The ceilings on the main level are high and give a dramatic flair to the home along with the rich wood flooring used. The 3800 plus square foot home has extensive decking off of the back of the home to show off the Valley views also visible from all the home's main living areas.  The landscape like the view is timeless and magnificent all the way around the house.  In the back you'll find the recently added pool and spa.  One of the great things about the Ridgeview neighborhood is that there are no HOAs and no Mello Roos.   It is currently listed at $849,990.   For more information, call or email me
