PROS: The Homes on Esprit Park is airy, comfortable, and features an energy efficient green design. The access from freeway is easy.
CONS: The South end of the building overlooks an unsightly rooftop of an industrial building.
BOTTOM LINE: Homes on Esprit Park is spacious and is ideal for families.

Overview

Nearly 3 years in the making, Homes on Esprit Park has evolved from a commercial winery and warehouse with history dating from the 19th century to a modern new homes complex with over 25 differentfloor plans (includes reverse plans). The new home community consists of two main buildings: North Court and South Court. Esprit Park sits next to North Court and is as large as the homesite and has plenty of grass and trees for a stroll with your dog or a game of frisbee.

The building has been rebuilt with a steel frame with South Court preserving the brick and timber feel and North Court featuring all new construction. Homes on Esprit Park have been designed with energy-efficiency in mind including tankless water heaters, radiant heated floors, and maximum light/air exposures. The light switches are also controlled by dimmers but does not include a motion sensor to turn off lights after a specified time. Large patios, decks or terraces are included in over 80% of the residences. Unlike Union by Palisades, Homes on Esprit Park doesn’t intrude the living space with exposed support beams.

Amenities

HOA dues are in the low $500s for a 2-bedroom and mid $600s for a 3-bedroom and include garbage and fire insurance. For the price, you get a media room, gym, and full size storage lockers. One parking spot is assigned for 2-bedroom homes and 2 spots for 3-bedrooms. Additional parking is available for sale. In addition, City Car Share spots are planned.

Buying Advice

Homes on Esprit Park includes a lot of features that would be an additional cost or unavailable in other new homes. Features such as radiant heated floors, tankless water heaters, and outdoor living space don’t come cheap and would need extensive renovation in an existing home. A recent 18% price reduction makes the homes a bit more appetizing and worth considering as a family oriented living space.
