Construction Underway in Pacific Highlands Ranch; Two New Neighborhoods by Pardee Homes to Open in Mid April

    SAN DIEGO, CA, March 13, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Construction is underway in coastal-close Pacific Highlands Ranch where Canterra and Casabella by Pardee Homes are anticipated to open in mid- April following the successful grand opening of Verana in late February. Canterra and Casabella together will feature seven exciting new floorplans, all offering luxury, energy-efficient living just east of Carmel Valley.

"We are pleased to bring this fresh collection of homes to North San Diego County," said Liz Ramirez, regional director of marketing for Pardee Homes. "Unique to both will be the availability of Pardee's exclusive GenSmart Suite option, allowing homebuyers to select a floor plan that includes a versatile 'home within the home' with a separate living and sleeping area that is ideal for extended living arrangements or visiting family and friends. These homes will also feature the LivingSmart package of standard and optional eco-friendly features that increase energy-efficiency and save water as well as incorporating materials that come from recycled and sustainable resources."

Homebuyers can currently join the interest list to receive important updates throughout the development of these new communities by visiting www.pardeehomes.com.

Canterra will feature timeless, two-story living in three open plan designs. Each home will embrace the indoor-outdoor way of life and include spacious great rooms, generous dining rooms, space-enhancing lofts and well-defined first-floor bedrooms. Homes will have four bedrooms, three to four baths and approximately 2,644 to 3,311 square feet; pricing will be from the low $900,000s.

Stylish Casabella, priced from the mid $900,000s, will offer three to four bedrooms with three bathrooms, two- and three-bay garages and approximately 2,134 to 2,824 square feet. Four upscale, two-story plans will offer great room living, lofts, covered patios, optional prep or chef's kitchens and optional spa showers.

The grand opening of Verana on February 28th attracted hundreds of home shoppers, and resulted in the sale of seven homes. With such strong interest, Pardee Homes will release a second phase on March 28th. Verana features three floor plans with four to five bedrooms, three to four baths and approximately 2,645 to 3,518 square feet. These two-story homes, with two- and three-bay garages, have open, airy floorplans with great room living, covered patios, lofts and options such as den/offices and extended patios to maximize indoor and outdoor living in addition to the GenSmart Suite option. Verana is priced from the low $1 millions.

Master-planned Pacific Highlands Ranch occupies one of San Diego's best coastal-close locations. Surrounded by 1,300 acres of preserved natural habitat, this exciting Pardee Homes community demonstrates the principles of LivingSmart beautifully with remarkably energy-efficient homes, drought-tolerant landscaping and a multi-use trail system for hiking and biking. A proposed private recreation center with swimming pool is planned for this area of Pacific Highlands Ranch. The community is surrounded by 1,300 acres of preserved natural habitat and back country views while also offering residents close proximity to beaches, shopping, parks and hiking trails, and Trader Joe's in The Village Center is scheduled to open in late March.

The neighborhood is served by many private schools and the highly-rated Del Mar Union School District for public schools such as Sycamore Ridge Elementary School. The San Dieguito Union High School District, including Torrey Pines High School and Canyon Crest Academy, serves older students.
