Springville is a newer neighborhood at the western end of Camarillo, approximately north of the 101 from the Camarillo Airport. Two developers are building out the property - KB Homes and Elacora. Elacora has already completed two of four offerings of homes - Sol and Brisa. The Viva single family homes are going fast, as are the Aire townhouses.
We've been by twice, in addition to checking out the floor plans and amenities online. One major plus is the proximity to Ponderosa Plaza, a short walk away. That shopping center has a Ralph's Fresh Faire, Starbucks, various restaurants, a bakery, and much more. We really liked that aspect of this neighborhood. A five-acre park is already complete in the middle of the complex, as well.
A nearby apartment community - AMLI Spanish Hills fits right in with lush landscaping and a well-cared-for vibe.
We initially were partial to one of the models in the Viva area, but upon a second visit, we liked the upstairs better than downstairs. Though they have a great room style, there's no place to put a dining room hutch, the way the windows and patio door are situated. I believe that model also was missing a built in microwave, and didn't have all that much spare counter space to place one.
We went back to see the two story plan of the townhomes, but they'd sold it off. There are a few more left to be built, but you can't see one ahead of time. Most of the townhouses are three story affairs, which seems to be a major trend for maximizing square footage on the smallest amount of land. The townhouses have balconies, but no yards.
The sales staff is very friendly and down to earth. No high pressure tactics - yay! read more
