Green Acres offers a spacious, affordable life in Southern California

Rugged mountain bluffs surround Green Acres, creating epic views, and the open landscape is full of possibilities for developers and anyone seeking an affordable SoCal home. "The surrounding towns — Menifee, Mariette, and Temecula — are all newer cities," says Darren Ham, a licensed Realtor since 2003 who works for Signature Real Estate Group. "But this part of Southern California has seen a lot of growth." Though Green Acres is largely rural, it's near cities that are starting to take off, like Menifee, and it's got its own newer properties to boast of, mixed in with a stable base of older manufactured homes. The neighborhood is built around two major highways, and its valleys offer a broad mix of recreation and more shopping than one might imagine.

Winchester Trails brings a suburban feeling to this rural area

Green Acres' original homes are manufactured properties ranging in price from the $285,000 to $535,000. Many were built from the 1960s to ‘70s but some are new. The landscape has a carefree look — with potted aloe vera plants, evergreens and palms decorating yards framed by different styles of fencing. Green Acres is also home to Winchester Trails, an HOA-run planned development that began taking shape in the early 2000s. Homes there come with three to five bedrooms and a carefully manicured curb appeal. They generally price from the $528,000 to $725,000. Lot sizes are spacious across the board in Green Acres, with many properties on half an acre. There are also large plots of land, upwards of 10 acres, to buy and build on.
