Mistletoe
Neighborhood in Redding, California
Shasta County 96002
Modest midcentury through 1980s homes with established yards
“It’s a seasoned neighborhood,” adds Marin, “so you get tree-lined streets and a fair amount of pride of ownership. But its age also means it’s spotty in that regard. There’s going to be a few shabby properties mixed in. It’s not one of the area’s elite destinations, but you’re close to so many of Northern California’s amenities.” Mistletoe’s neat grid of streets includes subdivisions such as Woodside Meadows, Christensen Park and Mistletoe Manor to the north and Penn Acres and Victoria Estates to the south. Cul-de-sacs are concentrated in the middle of the neighborhood, and lawns are filled with large oaks, pines and palms. Side-yard buffers are often thickly planted. The community’s primarily ranch-style single-family homes were built between the 1940s and 1980s and range from $330,000 to $420,000. Home pricing reflects square footage and recent updates.

Close to Sundial Bridge and Turtle Bay Exploration Park
Mistletoe’s location, just across I-5 from a big bend in the Sacramento River, puts residents only a 2-mile, 10-minute drive from the river’s Sundial Bridge. “Sundial’s been around for nearly 20 years,” says Marin. “It’s this glass bridge over the river that’s part of the paved River Trail loop from the Sundial parking lot all around a beautiful portion of the river. People are always walking their dogs or biking there.” Completed in 2004, the bridge functions as a sundial at one end and connects the north and south sections of Turtle Bay Exploration Park. Locals head to Turtle Bay to interact with indoor and outdoor animal exhibits, attend museum events, explore gardens or have fun on the playgrounds. A variety of membership packages offer discounted year-round access.

Happy holidays at Redding Garden of Lights
Residents look forward to the annual Redding Garden of Lights at the McConnell Botanical Gardens near Sundial Bridge. Every December, guests stroll through 10 acres of artful and immersive illuminations synchronized with music and animation.Easy-driving roadways, close to medical centers and Redding Regional Airport
“One thing great about Mistletoe and really all of Redding is that the roads aren’t congested anywhere,” adds Marin. Residents can drive just a few blocks down Mistletoe Lane or Cypress Avenue to shop and dine. Two major hospitals — Shasta Regional Medical Center in Downtown Redding and Mercy Medical Center near Greenwood — are within less than a 5-mile, 30-minute commute. Most residents drive, but for those needing public transit, Redding Areas Bus Authority stops are available along main roadways, including Hilltop Drive and Cypress Avenue. The Redding Regional Airport is a 7-mile, 13-minute drive south via Route 44 to Airport Road.

Shop and dine in Hilltop, Cypress Pointe and Mount Shasta malls
Mistletoe’s western-edge neighbor is Hilltop, a commercial district of inns, hotels, industrial employers and informal eateries such as Jack-in-the-Box, Domino’s and IHOP. Hilltop Drive leads north to Mount Shasta Mall’s more than 80 specialty stores, services and a food court. For date nights or family dinners out, Mosaic Restaurant by the Sheraton Hotel at Turtle Bay Exploration Park serves a creative menu of wraps, bowls, Wagyu burgers and seafood in an urban farmhouse-chic atmosphere. Just across Churn Creek Road, east of the Hilltop commercial district, at the southwest corner of the residential area, Cypress Pointe Shopping Mall offers a Starbucks and Habit Burger Grill, along with a Safeway, CVS and Lowes for groceries and essentials.
