California Ranchers under the shade of orange trees
One stroll down Cuesta Park’s tree-lined streets and it is easy to see why the neighborhood is so desirable. “There is a very competitive market,” Orion says. Mountain View is recognized as a Tree City USA Community by the National Arbor Day Foundation, and classic California Ranchers sit under the shade of towering oaks. Orange trees are a common sight amongst the well-manicured landscaped lawns, complete with local shrubbery and colorful flowers. Ranchers may be the predominant style, but mid-century moderns and Spanish Revivals with stucco exteriors can still be found throughout. Contemporary townhouses range between $2 million and $3 million. Single-family houses price from $2.5 million to $4.5 million.
