Rolling Hills
Suburban Neighborhood in Fullerton, California
Orange County 92835
Rolling Hills is a residential gem of a neighborhood that pairs understated charm with a vibrant community spirit. It's a pocket of suburban comfort where well-tended homes and verdant landscapes combine to create an atmosphere that resonates with a sense of tranquility and warmth. "It's full of vintage mid-century homes, there are parks all over the neighborhood, and it's convenient to both Brea and Downtown Fullerton," says local Realtor David Drake of Drake Real Estate Team. "What more could you ask for?"
Rolling Hills' housing scene is a delightful collage of mid-century aesthetics and contemporary updates. The homes, primarily ranch-style structures, effortlessly blend into the natural terrain, with their low-lying profiles harmonizing with the rolling topography. As one moves through the neighborhood, it becomes evident that the term "cookie-cutter" can't be applied here. Every home is unique, offering personalized landscaping, color palettes, and architectural details. You can find a 3-bed, 3-bath condo in the neighborhood for around $700,000, while most single-family homes offer between 1,200 and 3,000 square feet and sell for between $800,000 and $1.5 million. No matter what part of the neighborhood you're in, you're likely to enjoy wide, sunny streets lined with native flora and offering picturesque valley views.
For most residents, Rolling Hills' standout feature is its wealth of green spaces. 124-acre Craig Regional Park offers tree-canopied trails, picnic spots, and a serene lake. Smaller city parks like Rolling Hills Park and Mountain View Park are perfect for playground play-dates and pickup basketball. East Coyote Hills Trail, meanwhile, is great for hiking and mountain biking and connects residents to the 11-mile Fullerton loop trail, one of the most popular nature trails in all of Orange County.
Schools in Rolling Hills, overseen by the Fullerton School District, also deserve a nod. Local students can expect to attend Rolling Hills Elementary and Ladera Vista Junior High before matriculating to Fullerton Union High School, which is graded an A- on Niche and is known for its award-winning arts and theater program.
Of course, one of the perks of life in Rolling Hills is its balance of seclusion and connectivity. Although the neighborhood exudes a removed feel, it's just a stone's throw from both downtown Fullerton and Downtown Brea. This convenient proximity means residents can easily tap into both cities' myriad dining, shopping, and entertainment options.
Locals don't have to leave the neighborhood to find decent shopping, though. They can pick up groceries at Stater Bros. or swing by one of the shopping centers along Brea Boulevard, where they can find chain stores like Goodwill and Guitar Center alongside a wide variety of dining opportunities. You can grab a cappuccino and pastry at beloved local coffee shop Melted Vinyl, try the authentic Italian at Luigi's D'Italia, or stop by the iconic Summit House Restaurant, known for its prime rib steaks and stunning views of Fullerton.
Rolling Hills merges the comfort of suburban living, the sociability of community life, and the serenity of nature into a compelling neighborhood narrative. Here, residents can cultivate a lifestyle that doesn't just meet their needs but embodies their vision of a fulfilled, balanced life.
