[quote=Carmel Valley Journey]In the long run I see that the value of the homes located in the Carmel Country Highlands area will hold strong, especially if your home has lots of square footage and the lot size is better than a postage stamp. For those who are buying Derby Hill homes could regain their purchase price if they make smart choices in upgrades and don’t go crazy with the landscaping. For those who didn’t get a chance to buy their “Dream Home” at Derby Hill I found out Pardee Homes will be building East of Carmel Mountain Road where it deadends. Ask the sales office staff at Bridleridge about it. The houses are expected to be 4600 sq. ft. and larger, but who knows how long you might have to wait for those to be available. I was told it will be 2-3 years from now. Many people are looking for larger homes, but don’t want to move further East on the 56 to get it. My husband and I sold our home in 2006 and have been renting until the houseing market is right for buying. I would recommend doing this so when you find that model home you love so much you won’t have any contingencies on selling your home. Pardee loves that![/quote]
I heard that Pardee was going to build attached communities at the end of Carmel Mountain Road, specfically high end townhomes with shops nearby and supposedly a Trader Joe’s.
If that’s true, Bridle Ridge is the last detached community in the CCH area. Thank god.
