Solar is standard in every City Ventures Northern California home - and it is owned outright with the home, not leased. Energy-efficient appliances are also included as standard, with ENERGY STAR-rated or LG stainless steel packages depending on the neighborhood. All-electric construction applies at some communities but not all; Parkside at Cherry Blossom Row in Richmond, for example, is specifically built all-electric. Check the Community Features section on the neighborhood page you're interested in, or ask that community's sales team for the exact included list.

Standard Living Green features across our Northern California homes include an owned solar power system, a smart learning thermostat, a Ring video doorbell, ENERGY STAR-rated appliances, dual-glazed windows with UV coating, a water filtration system at the kitchen sink, and efficient water heaters. Every home we build is also wired with the electrical connectivity needed to add EV charging. Optional upgrades include solar power walls for battery backup, keyless entry, Wi-Fi boost, and network upgrades. The exact standard list varies slightly by community - see the Community Features section on each neighborhood page.

City Ventures is an infill builder: we redevelop underused urban and suburban land rather than expand into open space, and we deliberately choose sites near community centers, employment hubs, and public transport so residents can walk, bike, or ride instead of driving. In Northern California, this has produced neighborhoods positioned near BART, Caltrain, VTA light rail, and ACE commuter rail, and within reach of downtowns such as Livermore, Santa Rosa, and San Bruno. Each community page includes an interactive "Around the Area" map showing nearby transit, schools, shopping and parks.
