Garages placed at the rear of the homes. California rooms that extend living areas into the outdoors, taking advantage of a popular trend as well as the fabulous Ventura weather. Upstairs bonus rooms that can be used in any number of ways. These are just a few of the unique floorplan features that are driving new-home sales today, and they’re a big reason why The Farm has become the fastest-selling community in the area for Ventura County home buyers.
“The Farm is different by design in many ways, most notably in our partnership with the city of Ventura and under the umbrella of the Thelma Hansen Trust to create a community that addresses the area’s housing shortage as well as issues including density, access, product variety, affordability, and agriculture,” said Daniel Faina, Vice President, Sales and Marketing, at Williams Homes. “In designing the different residences at The Farm, it was important for us to be able to use the same innovative spirit that went into the design of the community. So, instead of seeing cookie-cutter exteriors and floorplans that feel like everything else out there, you’ll find truly unique new homes that provide all the function buyers expect, with thoughtful designs that take into account the way they really want to live today.”
The Farm offers four unique new Ventura County home communities within an exciting new masterplan in East Ventura:
Single-story homes are a popular choice among young families and retirees, and this Topa Topa Plan 1 includes all the space and style Ventura County home buyers are looking for.
These traditional single-family homes suit Ventura County home buyers seeking a spacious floorplan with easy entertaining opportunities and an airy design that creates easy flow throughout the gathering areas. Island kitchens connect to ample breakfast nooks, and dining rooms are either standard or optional in all plans. The single-level Plan 1 has been embraced by young families and retirees who want a spacious home with all the flair and none of the stairs. In Plans 2 and 3, the gorgeous master suite with spa bath and generous secondary bedrooms offer privacy on the second floor, while a first-floor bedroom provides a convenient touch. Topa Topa’s homes range from 1,914 to 2,677 square feet, with three to four bedrooms, two to three baths, and two and three-car garages.
Go ahead and take that gathering outside in your Ventura County home. Plan 1 at Olivas has an amazing California room, which eliminates the barrier between the living space and the covered patio.
These light-filled homes with four bedrooms and three to three and one-half baths in 2,251 to 2,702 square feet showcase innovative floorplans that were designed to serve the needs of families, both inside and out. Modern, open designs showcase chef’s kitchens, great rooms, and eating areas. The California room, standard in Plan 1 and optional in Plans 2 and 3, creates even more desirability and ties into one of today’s fastest-growing new-home trends: indoor-outdoor living. That light streaming in from the front of the homes—that’s one of the benefits of having garages at the rear of the residence. Now the natural light can find its way in instead of being blocked by the garage. Moving the garages to the back of the homes can also reduce street traffic and increase the likelihood that homeowners will interact in the community in the way that Thelma Hansen, head of the original land trust, once imagined.
Sespe Plan 3 has a one-bedroom apartment above the garage that Ventura County home buyers love for multi-generational living arrangements or rentals to offset the mortgage.
Large families and those who desire a Ventura County home with a floorplan that suits multigenerational living—rejoice! Sespe’s impressive executive homes offer four to six bedrooms and three and four and one-half baths in 2,787 to 3,343 square feet. And then there is the separate apartment unit above the garage in Plans 2 and 3, which buyers love for the great flexibility it offers. Turn the studio apartment in Plan 2 or the one-bedroom in Plan 3 into the ideal place for in-laws, visiting guests, or even a rental unit to help pay the mortgage. Meanwhile, in the rest of the home, you’ll appreciate the dramatic open-concept designs, huge gourmet kitchens with islands, spacious family rooms and dining rooms, and ample outdoor space with covered patios in every residence. That outdoor space extends to the front of the homes, where Sespe’s Ventura new home plans also enjoy the advantages of alley-loaded garages. Expect to find increased dog walking, impromptu neighbor get-togethers, and bicycles and tricycles on the neighborhood streets where you would normally expect to see cars driving by.
This Anacapa plan sure doesn’t look like a townhome, with a wide-open interior and great flow between the kitchen, living room, and dining area in this Ventura County home.
Spacious, attached homes offering great floorplan design and features are in short supply—especially when they also have private outdoor space. Anacapa’s three plans with 1,744 to 2,287 square-foot interiors offer three to four bedrooms and two and one-half to three baths, creating unique residences that are as functional as they are fabulous. The first floor of each of the units is wide open, moving seamlessly between the island kitchens, family room, and dining room. Plan 3 also offers a home office or fourth bedroom at the front of the house, and all three new home designs open out onto a private patio, porch, or yard. One of the most intriguing features of Anacapa is the bonus room above the garage in Plans 2 and 3. Homebuyers love being able to turn this space into a home office, TV room, or a spot for extra storage.
As unique as each community—and floorplan—is, they all share some important elements in common. Each community was designed as a refuge for Ventura new home buyers, with distinctive new floorplans that are filled with today’s most desirable features. They all also feature Williams Homes’ commitment to architectural distinction and homes that look as great as they live in beautiful, convenient locations.
