Skyranch in Santee

PKMAN, do you mind telling me how big is your lot?

[quote=PKMAN]Been living in Santee for about a year now and really like it. We looked at houses in MM and RB in late 2008 but found them to be expensive ($550K+) and kind of old. For about $100K less, we were able to buy a brand new single family house (2,100sqft) in Santee, 1.1% tax, no MR and only $108 HOA.

Both my wife and I work in the Serra Mesa area, so Santee is very convenient. MM would’ve been a bit closer but MM Blvd is much more congested than Mission Gorge Rd. RB is further.

Santee is not the best community in SD (to me that’d be Coronado) but for my affordability, distant to work and the fact that it’s a brand new house, I’m very happy to live here.[/quote]

Why is Coronado better than any other place?

It’s pretty small, only about 40’x80′. But the upside of it is that we don’t need to hire landscaping people to maintain it. I bought a $200 electric lawn mower and it does the job just fine. Because it’s a new home, it comes with automatic sprinkler system with expansion capability.

Our dog doesn’t like to play in the back yard (too small) but our community has a big grass area for him to run around freely, just a short walk away.

Riverwalk is a great community with friendly neighbors. My wife worked out at YMCA just across the street, before she started working. Next to YMCA is Rio Secco (K-8) so if we have a kid it’d be super convenient.

I just like it. If I was to live there (somewhere central), I don’t think I’d want to go anywhere else on weekend, or drive. I’d just walk to shops, restaurants, beach and other places. The cool ocean breeze makes even the hottest summer days very comfortable.

One thing about Santee is that it’s damn hot. Because it situated in a valley, temperature here is hotter than MM, RB or most other middle-class residential communities. Another good thing about buying a new home is that it comes with energy-efficient windows (dual-pane insulated) and A/C. It makes living in Santee during the summer much more comfortable and cost-effective.
