RIVERSIDE, CA – Amazing new homes with gorgeous hillside views, extra-large homesites, spacious yards and unbelievably low prices starting in the mid $300,000s. That’s the unbeatable combination of advantages that home buyers are discovering at TRI Pointe Homes’ Castlerock in Riverside, and it’s making the community their number-one choice.

All it takes is one visit for prospective buyers’ love affair with Castlerock to begin. The minute they see its quiet, secluded location and the picturesque hills and natural rock formations that surround the neighborhood, they are enchanted by a setting that is vastly different from most new-home communities today.

Then they are captivated by the homes themselves, spacious two-story floor plans with a wide array of customizing choices and extra-roomy backyards made possible by expansive homesites averaging 14,000 square feet.

“You won’t find another community like Castlerock anywhere in the Inland Empire,” stated Steve Wolpin, vice president of sales and marketing for TRI Pointe Homes. “It’s an amazing value, and with a total of only 27 homes, it’s an opportunity that will be gone before you know it. Visit now to avoid missing out.”

Castlerock features two innovative two-story floor plans with spaciousness ranging from approximately 2,336 to 2,905 square feet. For a rewarding at-home lifestyle, expansive great rooms set the scene for family gatherings and fun-filled entertaining, gourmet island kitchens make it easy to prepare everything from a snack to a feast, and lofty ceilings enhance the feeling of spaciousness.

Castlerock’s expansive homesites allow plenty of room for backyard fun. Pools, patios and play areas are all possibilities, along with vegetable and flower gardens, and even storing big-kids’ toys is no problem.

Castlerock’s flexible room options make the homes adaptable to every household’s needs. Residence 1 features the choice of a den that may also be selected as a formal dining room or an optional downstairs bedroom as well as the option of an upstairs loft. Residence 2, which includes a convenient downstairs bedroom that’s perfect for overnight guests, may be expanded with the addition of an optional upstairs bonus room.

Castlerock’s gourmet kitchens make mealtimes a delight with stain-grade cabinets for abundant storage, ceramic-tile countertops that always sparkle and a full complement of Whirlpool® appliances, including a gas range with oven, microwave oven/vent hood combination and multi-cycle Energy Star® dishwasher. Buyers may choose a variety of upgrade options, including designer-selected stain cabinets, granite countertops and a stainless steel appliance package.

Castlerock residents begin and end each day in the luxury of elegant master suites where large oval tubs, separate showers and ceramic-tile countertops make everyday grooming extra-special. To accommodate extra-large wardrobes, Residence 2’s master suite is enhanced by his-and-hers walk-in closets. In addition, secondary bedrooms are spacious, providing plenty of room for growing families.

Castlerock’s exteriors are distinguished by richly detailed Spanish or Cottage-style architecture with designer-selected colors that lend a custom-like appearance to the neighborhood. On select plans, inviting front porches welcome impromptu visits with neighbors. Sectional steel roll-up garage doors complement the architecture and provide convenience as well. Concrete tile roofs provide long-lasting protection from the elements, and rain gutters prevent runoff into yards and planter areas. In addition, illuminated address numbers assist after-dark guests.

To accommodate today’s technology, the homes include structured wiring with RG6 and CAT5e cables to facilitate high-speed computer connections as well as cable TV and telephone.

A Castlerock address brings with it convenient proximity to a wide range of nearby shopping choices, including neighborhood supermarkets and the fashionable stores and family restaurants of the Galleria at Tyler, Riverside’s premier mall.

The community is also close to the 91 and 15 freeways, which make it easy to commute to employment centers and recreation destinations throughout the Inland Empire and Orange County.
