Wilson Single Story Home With Pool Historic Wawona Ranch Clovis Ca. 93619

It is a strange time where no homes are actively on the market in the highly coveted Historic Wawona Ranch. The last home to be on the market only lasted 8 days according to MLS. That is a significantly shorter length of time than the average days on the market for the greater Fresno/Clovis area of three to four months.

But highly sought after homes in nice neighborhoods move quickly if they are presented well and priced appropriately. Having followed this neighborhood now for quite some time, I’m getting to know some of the owners and they are becoming more familiar with me through various forms of marketing. Through my efforts over time I have come to know of a home that will be listed for sale in the near future.

This home is a single story plan with three bedrooms, two and a half baths and a three car garage. This home has an inviting pool for the hot summer months that will be barreling down on us in no time. Another nice feature is the courtyard in the front of the home. Talk about setting yourself apart from all of the cookie cutter homes these days with an exquisite feature like a front court yard. You can now let your young kids play in the front area and have them be fully enclosed and out of harms way.

This floor plan I would consider to be much larger than a first time buyer home. These homes are definitely to be considered move up homes with 2,630 sq. ft. of living space and a large 10,400 sq. ft. lot. Inside you can entertain by the fireplace on the all wood floors throughout. The gourmet kitchen is inviting with granite countertops, eating area, stainless appliances and a convenient breakfast bar.

Apart from this great property is the great location next door to the Buchanan Educational Complex. Buchanan is known for its baseball, wrestling and football programs through the state of CA and beyond. The Veterans Memorial Stadium has been host to the California State High School track and field championships for several years now.

The price has not been set for this listing nor has the listing company been chosen. But all of this will be happening soon. Contact me, Jason Nenadov, if you would like to be kept in the loop for when this home hits the market. To see all active listings for sale in and around this neighborhood, click here.

Wilson & Wathen Historic Wawona Ranch Homes Selloff Clovis CA. 93619

Okay perhaps the entire Wilson & Wathen Wawona Ranch Homes Selloff in Clovis CA. 93619 is a bit of a misnomer. But I don’t consider the title to be clickbait so let me explain. I come back to this neighborhood frequently because I like the homes that are found in here plus the location. So when I did a map search to see what kind of activity was going on here I was a bit surprised. Of the roughly 250 homes in this community there was a glaring characteristic. All of the real estate activity in this community was along the southern border only. In fact, of all four sales and the one active listing, four of them were on the same street. The only one not on the same street was on a corner that bordered that same street of Omaha.

This discovery was bizarre to me, but only for a split second or two. Probably over six months ago I had heard that the large land parcel to the south of this neighborhood, consisting of Wawona Farms stone fruit and facilities, was going to be sold off at a very good discounted, undisclosed price to local church. I cannot remember off the top of my head but if I remember correctly it was something like 50-80 acres of land. I was hearing things like mixed commercial use on the border of the property and a huge mega church with whatever else goes along with that too.

So the string of people selling along the southern border decided it was a good time to make a move. No longer would their neighbor to the south be a quiet and peaceful peach orchard. Their future neighbors would be loud heavy equipment operators for years while the property is built out. All day church league sports tournaments, a sea of cars going in and out of the property throughout the week and not just on days of worship would be the new neighbors. Most of the residents in this Historic Wawona Ranch community are retired and or work from home. They have lived a good 15 years here and some may be looking to downsize.

As more and more people are born and towns expand, these once expansive pieces of land that helped feed our nation are turning into other developments. Allow me to help you navigate the tricky home buying and selling experience. I’ll have your highest interests in mind. I’ll look into things such as “future neighbors” and other nuisances that may spring up in your lifetime. Give me a call at 559-246-8991. I’m Jason Nenadov, Broker at Equity Assets Real Estate.

Wathen & Wilson Historic Wawona Ranch Homes for Sale Clovis CA. 93619

If you were to come see the Wathen & Wilson Historic Wawona Ranch Homes for Sale in Clovis CA. 93619, you would not be disappointed. Alternately, if you were looking for an update of what is happening in the coveted Historic Wawona Ranch community regarding recent home sale and prices, look no further! I frequently come back to this development because it seems like such a nice place to live with mostly single story homes and classy elevations, architecture and curb appeal galore. Wading through the current low inventory crisis it is often that you will find that there have been few to no sales or few to no active listings in specific neighborhoods. I found that there was enough real estate activity going on within this community that it was time for a quick update or market snapshot.

Looking at 152 Omaha Ave. I am surprised to see that this five bedroom and 3,076 sq. ft. home sold for a bargain price of $515,000. I’m sure the neighbors are not happy about this sale. This home was on the market for 238 days (way above the normal marketing time in this market) and was originally listed for $610,000. After multiple price reductions it was last listed at $544,900 before it sold for $515,000, 94.51% of the last listed price. Really the only knock on this home that I can see is that the backyard had no grass and was mostly dirt with some shrubs and trees. Other than that, the only thing that I can see as a negative is that it backs up to a large parcel of land that will eventually be commercial/mixed use so you won’t really know who your neighbor is and if it will inconvenience any residents in the current neighborhood. This Omaha house sold on 5/30/18 for a price per sq. ft. of $167, which is the lowest of all the five sales in the past six months.

The other four sales ranged from $183 – $219 per sq. ft. or from $470,000 – $705,000. One home is pending in escrow at $689,000 and $215 per sq. ft. There are only two homes that are actively listed for sale in MLS at this time. Both of them are showing recent price reductions. These two homes are both the 2,772 sq. ft. plan and they are asking about $515,000 and $505,000 for these remaining homes.

Perhaps the market is softening a bit for this neighborhood which is basically double the price of the average home sale in the Fresno/Clovis city limits. It may be a good time to get yourself into one of these thoughtfully designed homes now that the summer buying season is starting to come to a close. I know that personally I want to be in a home like these some day with a single story floor plan, a safe neighborhood and located close to shopping conveniences.

To see either of these two remaining homes at Historic Wawona Ranch or to have a no obligation consultation of what your home may be worth in this current market contact Jason Nenadov, Broker with Equity Assets Real Estate at 559-246-8991.

Historic Wawona Ranch Homes 3 Car Garages Sell Quick Clovis CA. 93619

Driving through the neighborhood this morning it dawned on me why the Historic Wawona Ranch Homes with three car garages sell quick in Clovis CA. 93619. Half of the homes had cars in the driveway with garage doors open after 10 AM on a weekday. I spoke with one of the homeowners on Dewit and he attributed it to some of the homeowners being retired. Why wouldn’t you want to retire Here? Well I am glad that you asked. These homes are mostly single story so there are no stairs to climb and aggravate your knees or hips if you are 55+ years of age.

Not only are they single story but they all come with thee or more garage spaces. If you visit a new home development it is very hard to find a brand new single story home with a third car garage option when the house is over 2,000 sq. ft. There simply isn’t room for the 3rd car option on a larger single story plan due to the home and garages not fitting on the tiny lots. Builders are building homes on smaller lots to make more money and to appease the state and fed regulators. The government is pushing green dollars through subsidies that promote higher density developments. The general plan calls for higher density residential moving forward and less urban sprawl. If more people live closer together then maybe they will use public transportation and cut down on their carbon footprint. I’ve spoken with a Fresno City Councilman and they confirmed this.

The three car garage option is awesome but just as important is the location. If someone wanted to buy a new single story home with a 2 car garage option they would probably need to look in the Loma Vista area by Clovis East High School. But this neighborhood is just to the east of Buchanan High School and the Buchanan Educational Complex. This community combines the best of the Wathen Castanos Buchanan Estates homes and the Leo Wilson Rivage and Wyndover homes. A lovely tree lined street separates the Wathen and Wilson homes on the north and south with round abouts for ease of commute and less stop signs.

For those who are active the Dry Creek Trail borders Historic Wawona Ranch on the east side. This is a popular walking/running/biking trail that connects with other trails. Bordering the west side of Historic Wawona Ranch is Buchanan High School. The stadium is better than most community college facilities and many people walk and run around the track and stadium when students are not using the facility.

Of the four properties that have sold here in the past six months, they have sold in an average of 16 days on the market. Currently there are only two homes actively listed for sale. Both of them are 5 bedroom 3 bath homes and slightly over 3,000 sq. ft. The one on Omaha is listed for $599,999 and the other on N. Dewit is listed for $591,000.
