3 unique communities with an incredible Santa Rosa locale are now open
Open spaces, rolling hills, vineyards, a thriving art scene and a charming town filled with great restaurants and boutiques has homebuyers looking to plant roots in Santa Rosa. Not long ago, this bucolic setting just 45 minutes from San Francisco was a getaway destination for harried city dwellers seeking a respite from the crowds, noise and stress. Today, Santa Rosa is turning into a home base versus a weekend escape. Helping to achieve this transformation is the emergence of new-home neighborhoods, with homebuilder City Ventures and their eco-conscious green homes leading the way.
“Homebuyers are coming here from the East Bay, Silicon Valley and San Francisco,” comments Natasha Zabaneh, vice president at City Ventures. “We offer something for everyone at our Santa Rosa Collection — from luxury single-family homes to farmhouse-style threestory townhomes. Classic design with modern amenities make this a perfect place to live, especially for remote workplace professionals.”
The innovative homebuilder offers three different new-home communities: Round Barn, Fox Hollow and Reserve. The unique neighborhoods reduce the impact on the environment while delivering optimal technologies for in-home convenience and a planet-friendly home that is plug-in ready.

The three-story townhomes at Round Barn are the first solar-included new-home neighborhood in the highly regarded community of Fountaingrove. Priced from the low $600,000 range, homes range from 1,746 square feet to 1,884 square feet with up to four bedrooms, threeand-a half bathrooms and two-car garages. Residents enjoy high-tech features such as keyless entries, Nest programmable thermostats, Energy Star appliances and pre-plumbing for electric cars. The community rounds out the homes nicely with exclusive amenities such as parks, a playground, pool, cabanas and a community garden.
For those preferring a single-family home, Fox Hollow delivers with City Ventures’ signature homes featuring 1,742 square feet to 2,485 square feet of thoughtful living space priced from the high $600,000 range. With up to five bedrooms, three bathrooms and two-car garages, stylish Fox Hollow is next to the nature preserve, with nearby trails, parks, and close to the downtown area, providing young and growing families with ample access to amenities as well as recreation.
Reserve is City Ventures’ luxury collection of residences, beautifully situated on large homesites that provide a distinguished address without Mello-roos or HOA fees. Square footage ranges from 2,570 to 3,210 with up to six bedrooms, four bathrooms and two- or threecar garages. Prices start in the high $700,000 range for these stunning homes that exemplify the indoor-outdoor lifestyle for which California is famous. Private backyards are perfect for entertaining, and customizing options cater to unique styles.
With its fantastic location at the gateway of the Russian River Valley, Santa Rosa allures with its charming shops, restaurants and abundant recreation. Add in the fact that there are so many things to do locally, from hiking and biking to music and art festivals, farmers markets, farmto-table dining and the region’s most celebrated activity — wine tasting — it’s no wonder that Santa Rosa has become the “it” place to call home.
