This thread is somewhat old, but I just recently stopped in their sales office for an update. They are re-opening their models this month. The “redo” is that they have brought the spec down so they can lower the prices. It makes sense to get the $/SF down and the only way to do this is to take away all the high end features that these homes originally built as a standard option. Now you can buy there if you can only afford up to $800k and if you can afford more “stuff” you have to pay for it. That was how Santaluz did it, too.
As for Santaluz…I couldn’t agree more that the communities are vastly different and pricing should be as well.
I will say that they are my favorite neighborhood and I would move in there in a heart beat. Whoever said a shared patio was mistaken! The master suite/bath in the model I love so much is so private! The neighbor’s view is obstucted in this very thoughtful design! Baywood was a genius!
