Master-planned living in northeast Folsom

Modern homes within an active HOA
The contemporary homes in The Parkway range from 1,800 to 3,500 square feet, with Mediterranean-inspired stucco exteriors and tile roofs. Prices start around $670,000 and get up to $950,000 for larger homes with backyard pools. Compared to similar surrounding communities, lot sizes are smaller, but homes tend to be larger and more modern, most built in the late 1990s and early 2000s. But what really sets The Parkway apart is its proactive Homeowner's Association, which might be a draw or a drawback, depending on what a homebuyer is looking for. "There is an HOA that covers front yard landscaping and has strict requirements on exterior paint colors and parking, so the community always shows impeccably," Bushnell explains. "You'll never find a dead lawn or an unwanted RV next door…but you need to be a homeowner that loves abiding by rules and regulations."
The yards in The Parkway are fairly small but always kept tidy.
The Parkway was created in Folsom in 1996

Local parks connected by a trail network
"My favorite part of the neighborhood is the trail system that runs throughout the community, splitting the neighborhood in half and providing miles of trails to run or ride your bike," Bushell says. "This is what gives the Parkway its name. Many homes in the community back up to the trail system and green space, offering tranquility and privacy — the city did a great job planning the neighborhood." The trail network connects several local parks, like Econome Family Park, which has modern sports amenities, and the nearby Castle Park, beloved by kids for its themed wooden play structure.
Trails in The Parkway are perfect for dod walkers.
