El Dorado Hills is located along the western border of El Dorado County from Folsom Lake to the north, and stretching south to Latrobe. It borders Cameron Park and Rescue to the east and Folsom on the west. Sacramento is just a short commute to the west and Lake Tahoe is only an hour to the east, with vineyards, rivers and ski slopes along the way.
A master planned community started in the early 1960s, the original developer planned a series of residential villages separated by open space to facilitate outdoor recreational activities with small commercial centers in each village and a larger, growing Town Center shopping center just south of Highway 50. The area between Folsom Lake and Highway 50 remains mostly residential. The area south of Highway 50 is a mixture of residential and commercial with a number of business parks.
In 1995 the Parker Development Company purchased 3500 acres and started developing Serrano El Dorado, one of the largest master planned communities in Northern California. It is known for its innovative use of recycled water for irrigation. Each home has a potable water system and a recycled water system for the landscape. The result is reduced costs for resident’s landscape irrigation.
The El Dorado Hills schools are excellent and there are many parks, hiking trails and, of course, Folsom Lake for your boating pleasure. The El Dorado Hills Community Service District is in the process of resurfacing the community pool with completion expected in time for this years swimming season. El Dorado Hills also contains the award winning Serrano Golf Course.
With a population reported to be in excess of 42,000, EL Dorado Hills is the most heavily populated community in El Dorado County. Since El Dorado Hills remains unincorporated exact numbers are difficult to obtain. El Dorado County and the CHP provide Police services. This avoids any city taxes and the issue of incorporation is a frequently disputed election issue.
El Dorado Hills offers a wide range of residential real estate options. There is a manufactured home park just south of Highway 50, several apartment complexes, condo complexes and two senior (age restricted) developments. However, most of the community is dedicated to single family homes that are available to all ages. Home sizes, age, styles and prices vary widely, and there are usually homes available to meet every taste and budget. Settings for your idea home can range from golf course lots, to those with lake and/or mountain views. Homes with mature landscaping, water front settings or gated access can all be purchased. Although modest homes are available, most exceed 2000 square feet with the largest at 10,500 square feet.
Many community activities are scheduled throughout the year. The community Easter Egg Hunt is held on the Village Green for the children, the annual Passport Weekend offers participants a sampling of hors d’oeuvres to complement the award-winning local wines, free concerts are held at the Serrano Visitor center along with outdoor movie showings.
El Dorado Hills provides an ideal setting for the lifestyle that you select and provides an excellent place to raise a family.
