Best of the Hills

Blog by DeeDee Riley
El Dorado Hills, California

Welcome to my 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.

Best Deal El Dorado Hills - April 08

May. 2, 2008
Categorized in: Best Deals
Redondo Drive, El Dorado Hills, CAThe "best price per square foot" home in El Dorado Hills is unbelievably priced at only $140.66 per square foot.  It's bank owned and extremely low even among other bank owned properties.  I truly believe sometimes this is a strategy for banks to get a higher price as it insights competition and multiple offers.  However, it is what it is so I'll just give you the information I found.  This semi-custom home was built in 2004, in one of the gated villages of Serrano, on approximately .482 acres, and has 4265 square feet, 4 bedrooms, 4 baths.  The kitchen has granite counters and stainless steel appliances.  Our Lyon RE Trendgraphix statistics for the month of March show that 30 homes sold at an average price per square foot of $192.  Of these 30 sold homes, 9 were bank owned properties averaging $163/square foot.  The home is listed at $599,900.  Keep in mind that generally, larger homes go for less per square foot so though it has the lowest per square foot price, it isn't the lowest priced home.  There are two homes under $300K for sale in El Dorado Hills and both of them are bank owned. Please call or email me for more information.   To see all bank owned properties in El Dorado Hills visit my website at www.deedeeriley.com and click on the instant search button at the top of the page.

Darling Single Story Semi-Custom in El Dorado Hills

Apr. 20, 2008
Categorized in: Best Finds
   
Cabrito Drive, El Dorado Hills, CA  -  Built in 1999 and filled with character, this single story, semi-custom home was a great find this week on tour.  Located behind the gates of Serrano's Village B neighborhood, it is within walking distance of not only the local elementary school but the middle school, high school, and the El Dorado Hills library as well.  The home is approximately 2109 square feet, has 3 bedrooms plus a den and 2 baths.  In the kitchen you'll find granite and Corian counters with stainless steel appliances.  I found the backyard to be inviting and very private.  This wonderful home is currently listed at $529,000.  Please call or email me for more information or pictures on this home or others like it.  As always, if you are not currently working with a Realtor, I would love to represent you in the purchase or sale of your home.
