Go All Out for Your Big Night In

With Valentine’s Day coming up, it’s time to start planning your at-home rendezvous for two. And the homes at Tracy Hills have rooms that flex in every which way and living spaces that easily double as romantic getaways.

When you’ve got a gourmet kitchen like the one at Amber by Lennar, there’s a perfect spot at home show off your culinary skills. With Wi-Fi CERTIFIED Home Design™, you can set up your own personal smart home hub and play the best tunes for kitchen dancing with a simple voice command while you craft a delicious dinner with your sous-chef. To turn up the romance, cook up a special-occasion dish that will make you feel like you’re at a three-dollar-sign restaurant or keep it casual with your favorite comfort recipes. The experience of cooking together in a beautiful space with premier stainless steel appliances, sleek quartz or granite countertops and more Everything’s Included® features will make the taste that much better.

If you don’t want to add kitchen cleanup to your special night in, why not order takeout? Pick up from a restaurant that you both love and bring it home to enjoy. Formal dining rooms, like the one at Topaz by Lennar, are the perfect places to fancy things up. Dim the lights, add some candles—and your at-home dinner date just got that much more romantic. If you’re looking to keep things on the casual side, set up at the large kitchen island or bring your plates to the couch in the great room to watch the next episode of the show you can’t stop talking about.

Fresh air pairs perfectly with any occasion, and the outdoor spaces at Pearl by Lennar offer the best seats in the house to enjoy a beautiful evening with your Valentine. Sit under the stars and share a nightcap or curl up on the California room loveseat with a hot beverage. And if you want to stretch your legs and get a change of scenery, take a leisurely stroll around the community hand in hand.

Do you and your significant other have a competitive edge? Or maybe an artistic side? Larimar by Lennar will have all the right spots to set up for fun activities with lofts and flex space. Break out Monopoly and let the race to owning Boardwalk begin—loser does the dishes! Or you could create your own art night for a creative change of pace. Puzzles, DIYs, video games, karaoke. There’ll be room for whatever your favorite shared pastimes may be.

And sometimes a movie night is exactly what the doctor ordered. Get the popcorn popping and pick your favorite romantic flick or choose from the list of must-sees you’ve been waiting to watch together. The great rooms at Vantage by Meritage Homes take comfort to the max with the kind of space that calls you to sit back, relax and stay awhile.

No matter what your at-home Valentine’s Day may look like, the spacious single-family designs at Tracy Hills can make it that much better. So go ahead. Plan your big night at home with your honey and find joy in the simple things—like each other’s company and the space you’re in.

Fall and Halloween Décor to Adore

Fall is in the air, and naturally so is that need to add a seasonal touch to your surroundings. Whether it’s updating your décor for that fresh autumn feel or decorating your home with Halloween in mind, here are some tips and tricks that will have your space looking good and feeling festive.

Think Cozy

Nothing says fall like comfortable accents in warming colors. Try adding some soft throw blankets and fuzzy pillows in neutral shades, such as muted orange, light browns and classic grays and whites. Finish it all off with natural textures and candles for a look that says sweater weather has arrived. Get more ideas.

Take It Outside

When it comes to decorating, it’s not just what’s on the inside that counts. Transform the outside of your home with just a few simple touches, whether it’s adding a seasonal wreath and lanterns, putting some pumpkins on your front porch or introducing some rustic furniture, cornstalks or fall botanicals. See how you can think outside the home.

Focus on Centerpieces

Everyone loves a good centerpiece, especially when it creates that autumn feeling. Round up some pumpkins and gourds for a harvest-forward theme at your dining table. Collect some leaves, pinecones and branches from outside and place them in a glass vase or bowl for a DIY feel. Or gather some yellow, orange and red flowers to place around the home in the perfect fall arrangements. Learn all about it.

Let’s Get Spooky

Blankets and fallen leaves are great, but sometimes you need to embrace your inner Halloween enthusiast. For an irresistible eerie vibe, fake cobwebs, hand-crafted spiders, gravestones and hanging sheet ghosts are perfection. If you’re looking for a little more magic, a cauldron, candles, broomsticks and spell books come together for the ultimate witch’s lair. Or you can always add some classic skeletons, jack-o’-lanterns and tattered cheesecloth draperies and call it a day! Get more inspiration.

There’s nothing like dressing up your home for the season, especially when it’s brand new! Visit Tracy Hills today to see how you can own the perfect new home to decorate to your heart’s content this fall and all the seasons to come!

A New School Is Headed Our Way

Bright futures are on the horizon! The future Corral Hollow Elementary School is on its way to Tracy Hills, and we can’t wait to see it open its doors and open young minds to a great education just steps from home.

The latest addition to the Jefferson School District, this new open-air campus is planned to take shape in the center of the community, near the Welcome Center and walking distance to each of the Tracy Hills neighborhoods. It will serve upwards of 900 K-8 students and even make room for potential daycare before and after school as well as preschool opportunities.

At its heart, the future school will embrace a technology-driven yet book-forward library, an upstairs learning hub that will facilitate growth and propel students to engage, explore, discover and stir their passions.

In addition, students will enjoy a range of opportunities both inside and outside of the classroom, from the Gifted and Talented Education program (GATE) to statewide academic and sports competitions and more.

To learn all about this exciting new development in our community, watch the video and see why the smart move is Tracy Hills.

Tracy Hills Featured in the San Francisco Business Times

Tracy Hills was recently featured in the San Francisco Business Times for its lure to Bay Area homebuyers, who are looking to trade urban living for the space and convenience found in a master-planned community.

Here, seven new home villages come with a variety of lot sizes, floor plans and flexibility. These single-family residences have between 1,700 and 4,100 square feet with outdoor space and attractive prices ranging from the $500,000s to the $700,000s. Median home prices in Tracy tend to be about $400,000 less than that of the Bay Area. It’s easy to find your home base when there’s so much to choose from.

With city dwellers craving room to grow and get moving, Tracy Hills’ walking, hiking and biking trails will be where they can roam. From planned retail spaces to schools and free Wi-Fi connectivity offered throughout the community, it’s a development that considers all aspects of living in a time when everything’s done at home. But when that daily commute starts up again, Tracy Hills is fully accessible to the hustle and bustle of the Bay Area, so commuters can conveniently jump on I-580 to get to work.

Groundbreaking News at Tracy Hills

“We are thrilled to begin the construction of the new fire station at Tracy Hills that will provide emergency services to all of Tracy Hills along with south Tracy residents,” said John Stanek, principal of Integral Communities.

“We worked closely and collaboratively with RRM Design Group and a committee of firefighters to design a station that not only meets our strict design standards but also offers residents a station that features the most advanced life-saving and firefighting technology.”

The new station will be staffed and operated by the South County Fire Authority (SCFA), which operates under a joint powers agreement between the City of Tracy and the Tracy Rural Fire Protection District (TRFPD). While the primary response area will be the master-planned community, the fire station will also respond to emergencies on I-580 north to Patterson Pass Road and south to the county line.

“As Tracy continues to grow, it’s important that our public safety services and infrastructure grow with it,” said Tracy Mayor Robert Rickman. “The groundbreaking of Fire Station 95 reflects an investment in our community’s safety, and I am proud that it will be housed by the brave men and women of the South County Fire Authority.”

“The opening of Fire Station 95 will be a key component to providing comprehensive fire protection and first responder paramedic services to south Tracy,” said South County Fire Chief Randall Bradley. “We look forward to being part of the Tracy Hills community.”

If you’re spending a lot more time at home these days, it can be a challenge to keep the kids busy. We’ve got you covered with some ideas and inspiration for your next indoor activity.

Bring a new sense of exploration to the indoors with a scavenger hunt. Riddle clues add a bit of mystery to the fun and can make it last longer. While you’re hunting for treasure in the house, might as well bring the whole playground indoors. It’s simple to create a fort or obstacle course that’ll keep the kids entertained for hours with the furniture and items you already have. Happy imagining!

There’s no time like now to try out new recipes, and it’s the perfect excuse to get your little ones involved in the kitchen.

Then kick the fun up a notch with an indoor picnic. Pack a meal, set up a blanket and enjoy your culinary creations on the living room floor.

If downtime is what you’re looking for, try breaking out a puzzle and playing cards or a board game. Plus, it’s always fun to take a trip down memory lane. Show your little ones old family photos albums or introduce them to your favorite books, movies and games from when you were their age. If that’s all been said and done, why not have the kids create their own stories and videos to share with the family?

Check out some more indoor activity ideas here to pass the time. There’s bound to be something excited you haven’t given a go at your Tracy Hills home yet!
