Communities in southern Chino Hills
Butterfield, also known as Butterfield Ranch, is in southern Chino Hills, a city in San Bernadino County. "Anything in Chino Hills is going to be nice, to be honest. There are a lot of new builds," says Carlos Flores, a Realtor with Keller Williams Whittier, who has been in real estate for over a decade. Butterfield is primarily residential and includes an assortment of subdivisions. It's quiet and can feel rural, as it's located near open spaces and regional and state parks. "Right away, you notice how pretty it is. It stands out from Chino and some areas of Chino Hills," Flores says.
Butterfield has incredible views of mountains and rolling hills.

Subdivisions from The Meadows to Vila Borba
Much of the development started in the late 1980s and continued through the 1990s. Single-family homes of 1,200 square feet to 2,400 square feet are $650,000 to $1.1 million. Communities include The Meadows and South Trails. Homeowners associations may not be present in these older areas, and homes may have aged out of Mello-Roos, the local infrastructure bonds tied to properties.
The Vila Borba community, developed in the late 2010s, has 2,700-square-foot to 3,500-square-foot homes, many with private pools, priced at $1.3 to $1.8 million. There are several condominium and townhouse developments from the 1990s and 2000s, including Celamonte, Hampton Court and Hampton Manor, which is gated. Prices range from $515,000 to $680,000.
Throughout Butterfield, most houses have neutral-toned color palettes and Spanish-style elements like stucco exteriors and red clay tile roofing. Homeowners association monthly fees can be in the $200s to $400s. Amenities may include pools, clubhouses and maintenance of common areas.
Homes in Butterfield Ranch come in a variety of sizes and styles.

Across SR-71 on the east side is Prado Regional Park, with an equestrian center, another dog park and archery and shooting ranges. "People go fishing, camping and RVing.
