Ramblewood
Residing in Ramblewood
Spanish-influenced homes are the most common style in Ramblewood, though townhouses with Modern Traditional designs are currently being constructed. Among these prospective homebuyers will also find sprawling ranch-style homes and townhouses constructed in the 1980s. An older three-bedroom townhouse can price around $800,000, while newer models and larger ranch-style houses will both climb as high as $1.5 million. “Many of the homes have either been recently built or recently remodeled,” Dinh says. “Homes there are attractively priced for the area, and buyers get a lot of privacy.”Scholarship in Ramblewood
