Via Moraga Will Welcome Homeowners in Early 2017

For 40 years, Moraga's Rheem Valley Bowl was a popular hangout for Lamorindans of all ages. In 1999, the bowling alley lost its lease and closed its doors. For the next five years, the boarded up building sat, abandoned and deteriorating. In 2004, the building was demolished and drivers on Moraga Road, the main thoroughfare through town, viewed an empty lot.
Come early 2017, the site will look better than ever and again be populated by young couples, empty nesters, families and laughing children.
Via Moraga, one of several housing developments going up in Moraga, is looking to welcome its new homeowners at the beginning of the new year. Developer Signature Homes has been working with the town since 2011 to build the subdivision of single-family homes and, weather permitting, the hope is that construction will be completed within the next six months, according to Senka Maricic-Foster, Signature's on-site sales associate.
Seventeen two-story, four-bedroom homes are planned for the site directly across the street from the Rheem Shopping Center. There are three different floor plans available, ranging in size from just under 2,000 square feet to 2,570 square feet. Each home has a finished two-car garage and a small yard and features premier KitchenAid stainless steel appliances, beautiful quartz slab countertops, Moen faucets and showerheads, custom beech cabinetry stained in a rich warm oak, quality plush carpet, designer selected light fixtures and upstairs laundry room.
Signature Homes, builder of Pleasanton's renowned Ruby Hill, is known for "providing quality homes of enduring appeal." They believe that the "details make the difference" and the outstanding features incorporated into the bright, sunlight-filled Via Moraga homes fully illustrate that belief. Each home is prepped for future solar installation, and includes a security system, state-of-the-art home wiring for networking capabilities and High Tech Nest thermostat. The community will also include a small park and children's play area, as well as attractive landscaping.
There are many ways buyers may customize their home and, according to Marcic-Foster, there are a number of beautiful top-of-the-line alternate design selections available.
Marcic-Foster, who began selling Via Moraga only three months ago, proudly stated that 12 homes have already sold. The remaining five are priced starting at $1.2 million.
