Amazing Home in a Gated Community in Arden Manor Sacramento
Are you a first-time home buyer hoping to find an amazing home in a gated community in Arden Manor at an affordable price? Look no further. Homes in the Villaggio gated complex do not come up for sale very often. All around this neighborhood, you see so much new construction. Developers are building $750K to $900K homes in Arden Manor. When the seller bought this home in 2005, it offered a gated community in the middle of an older, established neighborhood. Today, that community is revitalized with many remodeled homes and quite a number of upper-end luxury homes. This is an excellent opportunity from an investment or long-term hold point of view. You will love the price, too.
The first thing you should consider when buying a home in a gated community in Arden Manor is parking. You don’t have to be rocket scientist to figure out the garage is a one-car. However, look at that space in front of the front door. What is that? I’ll tell you what that is. It’s a carport. And then over on the left-side of the house is a bricked yard with space for two more cars. Yes, you can park a minimum of four cars at this home. More, when we figure out how to stack them on top of each other.
You can’t see the home in this photo because this is shot from the street (Jonas). The home is located all the way at the end on the right, nestled in the evergreens. It’s a very private location. Not only that, but it’s one of the largest lots in the subdivision. The last two homes on the right are set back from the street with a much larger area of street in front. Nobody has verified this, but the seller thinks the property line for each of the houses runs to the middle of the street. If that is true, that definitely makes her particular lot much bigger than the others at .0933, according to the Sacramento County Tax Assessor. That could be wrong, though. Although most of the other lots are .06.
Check out the entertainment space. This room is around the corner from the sheltered entrance. Beautiful oversized ceramic with variances add drama to the travertine around the fireplace. The owner of this home has impeccable taste, wouldn’t you agree? Look at those oversized Hershey’s Kisses on the floor in front of the fireplace. Perfect accessory, no?
If you haven’t guessed it by now, the first floor of this home is for entertaining. There is a half bath around the corner by the entrance, but the rest of the layout is kitchen and family room. Of course, the cabinets are a beautiful maple, and all of the black appliances stay. Over on the left is the area the former owners used as a dining space, but our seller prefers a table in the middle. What do you think? Middle like this? Or dining area in the corner?
Last year the seller painted to keep everything fresh. All of the rooms are the same color for consistency. You will find three bedrooms and two full baths upstairs. The seller uses one of the bedrooms as a TV room and it offers a balcony as well. This is a photo of the master bedroom at the back of the home. You will love the master bath, complete with a separate shower and a soaking tub.
Plenty of time in the day to relax outside. There are many areas around the perimeter of the home to curl up and read a book, due to its remote location. Much of the exterior was remodeled by the seller, including the pergola, patio surround and walkways. It’s a place you really need to see in person because it’s even better than the photos. Why not come to our open houses on Saturday and Sunday, both from 11 AM to 1 PM, September 29th and 30th? If you can’t wait, here is the virtual tour.

New Listing: Spacious Mid-Century Home in Rancho Cordova
Who would not love a big mid-century home in Rancho Cordova? Especially a home with 3 baths and updates! This gorgeous single-level story is more than 2,100 square feet, according to the Sacramento County Assessor’s office. The layout includes a permitted family room addition, about 20 x 20 feet, that looks like it was original. If you need 3 bedrooms (all large) and 3 baths, you can’t do any better than this home in Rancho Cordova.
Oh, my goodness, will you look at those beautiful hardwood floors? This living room is spacious and open, with a floor-to-ceiling painted white brick fireplace. What picture will you hang in that spot? It’s the first room you see when you walk into the sheltered entry. Through the living room, you can see the bonus family room with sliding glass doors. Why you could fit two pool tables easily in that space.
Into the updated kitchen, the first thing you will notice, of course, is the light earth-toned granite counters. So much storage available. Plus space in the kitchen for a table and chairs. There is a double oven and a gas cooktop, including a built-in black microwave. Right off the kitchen is a formal dining room, which also features sliding doors to the bonus family room.
Down the hall of this Mid-Century home in Rancho Cordova to the bedrooms. Apart from a 1/2 bath, a vintage bright yellow sink, there is another full bath (also vintage in pink) in the hallway with a tub and shower, and yet another full bath (white) in the master with a shower. All three of the bedrooms are larger than you might expect. But then, the home was constructed in 1959 when larger bedrooms were more common.
The back yard — wow, so many fruit trees: orange, mandarin orange, lemon and peach trees. On top of which, for your entertaining, a roomy covered brick patio, too. See the virtual tour. It will give you a better feel for how large the yard actually is!
Restricted hours for showing this Mid-Century home in Rancho Cordova. Call your own Sacramento Realtor or the listing agent, Elizabeth Weintraub, at 916.233.6759 for more information and details.

The Odyssey of New Sacramento Listings and MetroList
Listen to your agent about making an offer on a new listing in Sacramento
The last time I wrote a post about new Sacramento listings I’m working on, I received an email from our MetroList. Well, that isn’t really true. I received the email about 3 months later, not right after I wrote it. I’m not sure if they didn’t notice the date on the blog or which jealous agent flung it in their attention, but gosh darn it, they wanted to make sure I wasn’t doing anything hokey. Like that would ever be an issue with this Sacramento Realtor. I dot my I’s and I cross my T’s. Those who work with me know I am the Paperwork Queen of Sacramento real estate. Comes from my 1970’s escrow officer background. I glanced at my backlog and there were 15 hits on that old blog, all within the course of a few hours. I shake my head.
MetroList also wanted to mention that its staff had thoroughly examined my website and discovered it was literally crawling with listings. Why, I had a whole bunch of listings on my website that were, OMG, not my listings. What the? At first I didn’t know what they were talking about; the clerk was so extremely adamant I had purposely done something wrong. You can’t do that, she insisted. No? What did I do? She transferred me to a supervisor who also confirmed I can’t do what I’m doing.
Well, it is a product MetroList sold to me, and I pay MetroList every month for it.
You’re OK, she said, and abruptly hung up. See, this is why agents complain about MetroList. Accuse first, ask questions later.
I spent a good part of yesterday working on new Sacramento listings. This is what taking a 4th of July vacation in Hawaii does. Gives me an opportunity to set appointments after the heat wave eased some. Line up my new listings. Because I’ve sold everything now except for one listing, which is a little bit of a challenge due to certain circumstances. Yet, I imagine that will sell shortly as well. Can’t recall the last time a listing did not sell. When it does, then, I’ll have zero listings active. Bring it on.
It’s time to contribute to the new Sacramento listing inventory. We are in dire straights of needing more homes for sale (I’ve never liked that band). Lyon Real Estate called the demand from buyers insatiable, and that’s an excellent word to describe buyer activity. I’ve got new Sacramento listings coming up in Elk Grove, Natomas, Rosemont, West Sacramento and Rancho Cordova. If you’d like to get on the bandwagon with a top producer in Sacramento and get your home on the market, the time is now to call me, Elizabeth Weintraub, at 916.233.6759. Selling homes keeps me busy and off the streets, you know, where I might be tempted to succumb to delinquent behavior.
Psst: Successful people are always under the spotlight and scrutinized. It’s just the way things are.
New Gardenland Listing Looks Straight Outta Pottery Barn
2808 American Av, Sacramento, CA 95833 is for sale at $259,000.
When I first visited this Gardenland listing in Sacramento, I kinda gave the seller a hard time about his home stager cousin. I asked him for the name of his company, asked whether the guy had ever been paid for home staging, drilled him about business cards, really questioned him thoroughly because I wasn’t certain his cousin would do an adequate job. I’m always a bit wary when sellers tell me they have family members who do real estate-related jobs because there are so many wannabes out there.
I had to eat my words. It’s a good thing I didn’t place any bets or I would be chewing on my shoes right now or forking over a hundred bucks. The home stager cousin is wiz-bang miracle worker. It’s not often that I am wrong, but I freely admit when I am. The guy is a genius. The home also looks oh-so-much better without the pool table in the living room, as evidenced by the photos below.
This is a Gardenland listing that was already beautiful to start with. It has granite counters in the kitchen, newer appliances, ceramic floors and engineered wood flooring in the main entertainment areas. The staging just made the place pop with excitement. Also, much of the furniture will be sold personally, outside of escrow, by the seller, if the buyer wants any of it. He’s very reasonable with pricing.
You’ll find 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths, in addition to a formal living room, separate dining area, and a family room, which is vaulted. Also an indoor laundry room with cabinets, that comes with a washer and dryer, if you remember to ask for it in the purchase contract.
Another feature that makes this Gardenland listing unique is its huge yard. According to the Sacramento County Assessor, and this has not been confirmed by me, the lot size is .34. That’s more than one-third of an acre. Gigantic! Huge! Imagine lounging on the deck this summer under a covered umbrella, or leaning over the railing to throw your dog a stick to chase.
