Rancho Murieta Real Estate — Rancho Murieta Homes For Sale in Rancho Murieta, CA

Rancho Murieta sits on 3400 acres about 24 miles from downtown Sacramento California. But it's probably only about 12 miles south of Folsom. That makes it pretty convenient to all the amenities offered by the hustle and bustle of larger cities, without all the traffic and congestion issues that come with them. There are about 4000 homes here with some of the best top-rated schools in Northern California. I would describe it as having 3 distinct regions. There is the 55+ community south of Hwy 16. It boasts ownership of the land by the residents. They live in mobile homes but don't have to pay the high rents you see in other communities. South Rancho has it's own golf course south of the River. Many of the homes here were built by builders like Lennar, Corinthian, etc.. Then there is Rancho Murieta North (Meaning north of the Consumes River) where you'll find lots of custom built homes. Some surround one of the 2 golf courses in Rancho Murieta. While others make up the surrounding neighborhoods which lead up to the private lakes area. The lake only allows boats with small trolling motors or kayaks on it, making it totally fit for relaxing. Here also you'll find Stonehouse Park where you find many families playing on the lighted baseball, soccer, and play parks. There is also an outdoor amphitheater which hosts concert events on Saturday nights during the summer. So much fun! So if you're looking for community close to it all that offers the comforts and security found in other locations, check out Rancho Murieta. You'll be glad you did! less
