GRANADA HILLS, CA, March 11, 2011 (Press-News.org) High Lights, Trumark Homes' collection of 81 brand-new townhomes overlooking the San Fernando Valley in Granada Hills, is racking up huge sales numbers even at a time when the housing market is still in recovery mode. High Lights sold 23 homes in 28 weeks from June through December, 2010. That's nearly one sale a week, and the momentum shows no signs of slowing down.
"High Lights owes its success to several factors," stated Cathie McGill, vice president, sales and marketing, of Trumark Homes. "With prices starting in the low $300,000s, it is an affordable alternative to renting for entry-level buyers, and today's ultra-low interest rates and government tax credits have added to that affordability. The purchasing power of first-time home buyers remains strong, and High Lights gives them the perfect opportunity to use that power."
High Lights offers two- and three-story townhomes ranging from approximately 1,112 to 1,659 square feet, including two to four bedrooms and one and one-half to three and one-half baths. Select plans feature a first-floor bedroom and bath that are ideal for a home office or private guest suite, and every home encompasses a two-car side-by-side
Gourmet kitchens are highlighted by Whirlpool stainless steel appliances and granite countertops in an array of color choices.
High Lights boasts a gated, hilltop location at the north end of the San Fernando Valley that is just as spectacular as it is convenient. "You can literally look across the valley from the community and see where you're going for work or play," McGill observed.
Tucked away at the end of a very quiet street and enclosed by restricted-access gates, High Lights is directly across from the famed Odyssey Restaurant, which for years has attracted diners who are as enchanted by magnificent vistas of the city lights below as they are by the fine cuisine. The same panoramas captivate the owners of High Lights' limited number of view homes, and a lookout point within the community makes those vistas available to all residents.
High Lights turns a home into a fun-filled experience with a variety of lifestyle amenities, including a community swimming pool, spa and barbecues, which will be completed in the fall of 2011.
Convenience is an added attraction because High Lights is close to multiple freeways, including the 5, 405, 118, 210, 170 and 14. Those routes make it easy to reach employment, entertainment and recreation destinations throughout the Los Angeles area.
To discover all the reasons why High Lights is significantly outperforming today's real estate market, travel the 405 Freeway northbound and exit at Rinaldi Street. Turn left on Sepulveda Boulevard and left on Rinaldi. Turn right onto Blucher Avenue and left onto Odyssey Drive. Turn right into the community, which is directly across from the Odyssey Restaurant. The Sales Gallery is open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and additional information is available by calling 818-360-9898 or visiting LiveAtHighlights.com
