Outside, enjoy garden beds and a collection of young fruit trees, including key lime, peach, tangerine, naval orange and apricot with a new sprinkler system installed in the front and back yards. Situated above a slope, the backyard regularly catches a pleasant afternoon breeze, creating an inviting space to relax and enjoy the outdoors. Additional features include thoughtful updates, practical storage, and a layout that makes everyday living feel simple and functional. Shopping, dining, parks and other community amenities nearby. A comfortable home with useful spaces, outdoor potential, and a refreshingly simple approach to Southern California living.
Margarita Village-Temeku Hills, located between Old Town Temecula and Temecula Creek, is a suburban and golf-adjacent Temecula neighborhood with rolling fairways and pocket parks. The neighborhood’s energy concentrates around the Rancho California Rd and Margarita Rd corridor, where patios, tasting rooms, and local storefronts set a steady, after-work rhythm. Temeku Hills Golf & Country Club anchors the landscape with palms, cart paths, and wide street views. Nearby, Old Town Temecula’s Temecula Olive Oil Company and The Merc add a craft-and-heritage counterpoint to newer tracts. Homes lean toward late-20th-century builds with tidy yards and cul-de-sacs. Santa Gertrudis Creek Trail threads green space through the area, linking daily walks to open-sky views.

Frustrating, isn’t it? You went through the process of getting approved for buying a house and you got all excited to go find a new place to call home--thinking it was going to be like what you see on an episode of HGTV, where you see three houses, pick one, and move in--Now, here you are, six months later, and you keep getting beat out by other buyers…D’oh! Throw in the fact that there are only a small handful of Single-Story homes in Temecula for less than $650,000 and you can see why the hunt for homes can make you wanna pull your hair out. Well, let’s see if we can help you ease that residential angst with Vintage Hill’s hottest and newest Single-Story listing (the only Active listing in the community). Step inside this Single-Story marvel. 3 cozy bedrooms, a bonus office for those “working from home” days (Netflix binge, anyone?), and 2 remodeled bathrooms, all packed into a charming 1,360 sf, this beauty is ready to dazzle. The remodeled kitchen is so fancy, you’ll feel like Gordon Ramsay every time you cook ( * though yelling at the family and calling them donkeys while making toast is not recommended, but I digress). Camino Romo is located right across from the top-rated Vintage Hills Elementary, your kids can practically roll out of bed and into class. If location is important to you, then you’ll love being in the center of Temecula, where you’re minutes from award winning wineries, shopping, restaurants, and more. Secret bonus? This home is located super close to the Sports Park where they razzle dazzle you with an awesome 30-minute firework show on 4th of July every year; and this patio-covered backyard feels like having front row seats: so, start planning your patriotic parties now! With low taxes and an HOA fee of just $115, you get access to two sparkling pools, a relaxing spa (perfect for soaking away the stress of figuring out new math homework), a clubhouse, serene parks, and courts for tennis and basketball. There’s even play areas for when you need to tire out the kids (or yourself). So, now what? Go ahead and text this listing to your significant other (who is probably sitting right next to you on the couch staring at their phone) and say, “OMG! Let’s go see this!” Because if you don’t, you’re gonna miss out and then you’ll be all grumpy and nobody wants that to happen. See it. Love it. Buy it. You’ll be glad you did.

The specific plan zoning district is intended to provide the flexibility in planning and design to effectively implement the goals and policies of the general plan. In addition, the purpose of this chapter is to establish uniform procedures for the adoption and implementation of specific plans for the coordination of future development within the city, consistent with this development code and pursuant to California Government Code.
