New Home Dreams Are Coming To Life In Shea Homes Gold Coast Ventura County Neighborhoods

Jan. 17, 2012 - PRLog -- VENTURA COUNTY, CA – Unbelievable value pricing and low interest rates are creating irresistible opportunities for homebuyers at Shea Homes’ RiverPark neighborhoods. Right now at three spacious townhome and courtyard style communities, Shea Homes Representatives are showing homebuyers how to use today’s lower than low interest rates to their advantage. There’s no time to lose in visiting Reflections, Meridian and Boardwalk at RiverPark in Oxnard and getting the information that could literally change the future, starting today.

First time buyers and those moving up to a new home have the advantage of owning the best for less right now. Shea Homes has over a century of experience in homebuilding, understands the importance of a home for individuals, and has the know how to maximize value when interest rates are low. Even first-timers may now gain an investment that pays lifestyle dividends from day one, and know the peace of mind that comes from owning a home built by an award winning builder with a long history of excellence and integrity. Shea’s special ability to make attached home living exceptionally satisfying means there are no compromises for today’s smart buyers.

“While interest rates are so incredibly low, homebuyers honestly get more home for their money, including the possibility of lower monthly payments,” stated Janet Benavidez, vice president of sales and marketing for Shea Homes Southern California. “Our Sales Representatives are great listeners, and can guide buyers in the right direction to realize the dreams of new home ownership that they’ve set as their goal. It all starts by having a conversation, touring the model homes and seeing the truly unique possibilities that exist now.”

Reflections' uniquely designed two-story attached homes are a perfect fit for the lifestyles and budgets of first-time homebuyers. Living areas measure approximately 1,338 to 1,475 square feet, including up to four bedrooms and two and one-half baths plus a covered porch or balcony and a two-car garage. Varying plans feature a versatile loft or a gourmet kitchen island, and every residence is enhanced by fine appointments, including granite kitchen countertops and European Thermafoil cabinets in a choice of three colors. Prices start in the low $200,000s.

Also starting in the mid $200,000s, Meridian's two-story attached homes range from approximately 1,301 to 1,980 square feet, with up to four bedrooms, two to three baths and a side-by-side two-car garage. The highlight of these floor plans is the fact that all of the homes are end units, which allow natural light to extend throughout the homes.  Some of the floor plans offer an enclosed courtyard that extends living areas outdoors, while Plan One features two balconies for outdoor enjoyment. One plan features a downstairs bedroom, and many homes offer driveways for added off-street parking or car washing.

Boardwalk presents spacious two-story courtyard residences that are ideal for young families. With prices beginning in the high $200,000s, the homes extend from approximately 1,800 to 2,124 square feet and encompass up to five bedrooms and two to three baths, and varying plans take on the added dimension of a master-suite retreat, bonus room or secluded study. One plan features a downstairs bedroom with a full bathroom. Touches of luxury extend throughout the homes, from granite kitchen countertops to stainless steel appliances.

RiverPark's extensive array of community amenities includes eight neighborhood parks that offer recreation opportunities ranging from tennis and basketball courts to children's playgrounds. Two brand-new schools within RiverPark, Rio Del Mar Elementary and Rio Vista Middle School, are both just a short distance from the Shea Homes neighborhoods.

The centerpiece of the Oxnard coastline is Channel Islands Harbor, which offers fun-filled water activities for the whole family. The Harbor features several beach-lined parks for picnicking, as well as nearby biking and walking paths. The Harbor also offers excursions to Channel Islands National Park, a unique ocean environment that is home to more than 2,000 terrestrial plants and animals.

All these possibilities are just one conversation away. Buyers are urged to visit Shea Homes’ RiverPark neighborhoods and get answers from Sales Representatives. To reach the neighborhoods by traveling the Ventura Freeway (101), exit at Oxnard Boulevard, then drive east and follow the signs to the individual neighborhoods. Boardwalk Information Center is open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Wednesday from 2 to 5 p.m. Reflections and Meridian Information Centers are open Saturday through Tuesday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Wednesday from 2 to 5 p.m. and closed on Thursday and Friday.
