First-time homebuyers in Stockton, California, have more options after a neighborhood of newly-built houses opened.
Homebuilder LGI Homes opened its newest batch of single-family homes, known as Ligurian Village, on Monday, according to a news release. The community includes three-, four- and five-bedroom residences.
The neighborhood sits just about 5 miles outside the bustling city of Stockton in Northern California, and it offers buyers access to a range of outdoor activities while still maintaining proximity to the downtown area.
“It is very family oriented and has such a small-town feel, which is a surprise since it’s tucked away in such a big city,” Jeanine Roach, the brand’s vice president of sales for Northern California, said in a statement.

Houses in Ligurian Village are priced in the $440,000-range, offering buyers a “budget-friendly path to homeownership,” according to LGI Homes.
On the website for the newly developed community, the brand touts support for first-time buyers interested in purchasing a property and notes that the builder will cover closing costs.
Data from Homes.com showed that in January, the median single-family home price in Stockton was about $455,000. Looking exclusively at newly built houses, that figure stood at $427,000 as of the latest update from the Census Bureau.
