Built in the 1970s and 1980s, this subdivision features a variety of home styles including ranch, two-story, and split-level houses with attached 1 or 2 car garages. The lack of a home owners’ association allows residents to freely park their boats, RVs, and campers in their driveways. Lots range in size from 0.15 and 0.3 acres. Large, established trees, foothills views, and cul-de-sac streets add to the neighborhood’s appeal.
