And, the Foxenwood neighborhood is bordered by other prestige areas such as Lorraine Estates, Deerfield Estates, and the new “Old Mill” development.

The first half of 2010 has been pretty dramatic with the $8000 federal tax credit extension and the introuction of the $10,000 California new home and first time home buyer credit. Buyers were on a roller coaster with the first two months having moderate activity, then a blaze of acvtivity in March and April followed by low activity in May and June.
