The McCaffrey Group Brings Northern Italian or Tuscan Architecture to Valley

The McCaffrey Group Brings Northern Italian Style or Tuscan Architecture to the San Joaquin Valley (Fresno and Clovis) with Treviso Custom Homes

Hampton Renaissance at Loma Visa and Treviso, Clovis and Fresno, CA

On a mid-Fall afternoon, I and some friends decided to go house hunting. For us, this activity has become a sports. Especially in this buyer's market where developers and sellers want to see potential buyers, my friends and I just felt it was time to see what is on the current market. We headed out to Grantland and Bullard which is a well-established community with huge homes and beautiful front and back landscaping. Just in case you did not know about the local housing community, there are pockets of beautiful homes in the Greater Fresno-Clovis area. And there are expensive homes that range in the $ million range. As with anything, you have to know where they are located to find them. The McCaffrey Group is offering potential home owners the possibility to leave their architectural imprints in this part of Fresno, specially at Grantland and Bullard.

According to the McCaffrey Group Marketing representatives, Treviso offers expansive custom lots that can go up to one-half acre in size. The pricing is competitive. It can start from the $200,000 and up. If you want cul-de-sac, corner and standard lots, you can get them too. We can truly say that this is one of the major features of the development. My friends were awed by the expanse of the lot. So if you want to have a pool, spa a 4 or 5-car garage, you will be able to fit it. What struck us the most was the entrance. We stopped there for a while to take pictures of the balloon floating above the entrance walls. We also looked at the huge tiles and European lighting. We could tell that lots of attention was paid to the design and selection of trees that adorn the entrance. We drove around the lots. Some of them were bought the first week the development was open. There are still some great lots that wait for your attention. As we made our way to the back, we got out of the vehicle and started talking to a gentleman who retired from the San Jose area. He was more than happy to show us his lot. It is going to be a custom home designed and built by one of the best architects from the Bay Area. This man had great ideas for his lot. That is where he wants to build his dream home. Interested consumers can buy their lots. They will select their own architects, custom-home contractors and landscape designers. After taking some more pictures, we exited Treviso only to look at all the homes that are being built right in front of The McCaffrey Group development. Treviso is part of the Hampton Renaissance development in Fresno. You can also find Hampton Renaissance at Loma Vista in Clovis, CA. The Loma Vista Village features nearby community park, schools, shopping, dining and entertainment. It is located near the Reagan Education Complex. As far as Treviso is concerned, it is located in the Central Unified School district which is building the Koligian stadium and an education complex that will feature Harvest Elementary school, middle school and high school. So your kids will only have to walk a short while to reach their school and playground. Some of my friends enjoyed a lot Loma Vista's design. The Loma Vista's amenities ( urban village style, residential living, business, education complexes, retail stores, dining and entertainment, a sense of high-class, high-end living) attract them a lot.
