Sacramento's hidden gem
Just 21 miles northwest of downtown Sacramento is the hidden gem of Orangevale. “Honestly, I tell people it’s the best-kept secret in Sacramento County,” says Sandra Moreno of Sandra Moreno Realty, who has two decades of experience in the area. “There is a pride in the ownership of these homes, and it is really great for first-time home buyers.” The neighborhood’s name comes from the orange groves that once stood where homes do today. “With the orange groves, the lots were naturally bigger, and they’ve stayed that way today,” says Moreno. Homes have room to breathe in Orangevale, and some of the larger homes in the northern end of the neighborhood are comprised of multiple acres. While Orangevale has its own distinct style, it’s easy for residents to commute to Folsom or down to Sacramento.

Bungalow and Craftsman homes
The majority of homes in Orangevale are Craftsman ranch-style bungalows. Bright colors and unique facades give the neighborhood a distinct character. Prices start at $450,000 and range up to $650,000. “When my daughter bought her home in Orangevale, she was saying she was paying Orangevale prices with access to Folsom amenities,” says Moreno. On the northern edge of the neighborhood, larger homes with acreage for horses are in the $1.5 million to $2 million range. The residential areas are away from major highways and feature quiet, winding streets that often lead to cul-de-sacs. Wide sidewalks make it easy for dog walking, and houses feature front and back lawns shaded by tall trees. Street parking is a non-issue as homes feature long driveways and multi-car garages.

Each year, the park hosts the annual Orangevale Summer Palooza in June, a three-day carnival with food, music and horse shows. Pets can get some exercise at Pecan Park’s dog park, while owners can hit the lighted basketball and tennis courts. During the colder winter months, locals can get an indoor workout at Excel Fitness of Fair Oaks.

Dining off Greenback Lane
There are plenty of spots to eat on Greenback Lane, which intersects the neighborhood from east to west. Kobleh Kabob serves up authentic Persian dishes in a festive atmosphere, while Mode Brewing + Kitchen has a laidback vibe and an outdoor area to enjoy classic American favorites. Greenback Lane is also home to coffee shops, Mexican restaurants and familiar national chains. On the eastern side of the city, locals can grab a drink and listen to live music at The Boardwalk, a concert venue that hosts local bands and comedians. Grocery shopping is convenient, with Walmart and WinCo both in the neighborhood, and shoppers can go a few blocks to the west to visit the large indoor Sunrise Mall.
