PQ areas

[mollytanner]

We’re renting in Sabre Springs. We have been here since November. Looking in PQ because we have heard it is family friendly and there are bigger lots (we have 3 dogs). Just wondering if it’s a good area because I can’t really tell just from looking at it. I did drive around parts where there seemed to be a lot of people standing around in the streets. I wasn’t too keen on that.

We came from a neighborhood that is really tight knit and we are looking for the same sort of thing. We are also looking to be in a good school district and near a nice park where we can walk or bike to.

Okay… Where to start…

Lets first talk about the home. I assume you are talking about the listing at 14247 Via Cabezon. This home is not priced to sell as indicated by the market time of 97 days. To put a focus on this little part of PQ, it is an interesting part. There is a very cool cul de sac (La Tortola Pl) that have a few homes that have exceptional size lots that span up the hill. One of them was for sale last year and it got scooped up quick. Other then that, the entire south face of that area that La Tortola runs down, including Cabezon and Benavente is kind of… regular PQ to me. Nothing out of the ordinary. As it winds around to the east (becoming Paseo Montril) it is slightly less desireable.

As the other poster noted there are other more desireable parts of PQ. There are other less desireable parts of PQ as well. Stay away from the northeast PQ. The desire for a big lot will be challenging in PQ depending on your definition of big. Much of PQ is standard tract home setups so the lots do not vary much. However due to the topography you may get a larger lot due to an up or down slope in the backyard. I had a couple of clients who have bought in PQ over the past year and 2 of them got some pretty nice sized lots.

PQ is served by the Poway school district so you are good to go with that satisfying your requirements. Price ranges for say a 2k sf home in the decent parts of PQ will range from 500k and go up. As discussed in the thread the “best” of PQ will be to the west boundary at Torrey Highlands. These homes are nice but not cheap and have MR fees. Park Village is a nice area as well and is pretty desireable. Lots of inventory around Stargaze off of Black Mtn Road as well.

If you came from a tight knit neighborhood PQ may or may not suit your needs. There are plenty of parks, and if you go down the canyon in Park Village, Penasquitos Canyon is fantastic. Great place to take the kids and I take mine there alot. Again, that neighborliness factor may or may not suit you and to be honest it will vary somewhat from micro area to micro area.

I am guessing that you relocated here due to you or your husbands job situation. My second guess is one or both of you either works in the Sorrento Valley or RB area? Perhaps I am wrong. At any rate given your needs (and I am just basing it on what you wrote) PQ, Sabre Springs, Scripps and maybe Carmel Mtn Ranch all may suit them. Tougher to find a bigger lot size in Sabre Springs or Carmel Mtn Ranch. Poway is also a possibility. Scripps is NOT part of the Poway school district unless you end up in Stonebridge. Not sure of your budget but it is not cheap over there and you have MR fees in there as well. If your commute is where I think it is Poway will add 10-15 minutes over say PQ. Rancho Bernardo is a possibility as well but again, a bit further out then PQ.

In the end it is hard to answer your question… Is it a good area? Yeah for the most part it is. Is it an ideal area for you? Not sure. It will be somewhat similar to where you are in Sabre Springs. I assume you guys are renting a home there. Neighborhoods can vary over a small area because they take on the personality of the residents. If you live on say a cul de sac of 10 homes and 7 of them have young kids then chances are that it is a bit tighter knit then if 3 of them did. Also demographics plays a bit of a role. Hope that was a bit helpful. If you have q’s on other homes just post and I will help out. I am sure you will get lots of suggestions here from all the posters.

FYI some of the houses on the south side of La Tortola just west of the park have huge yards backing to the canyon also. I listed one about 2 years ago and it was pretty big.
