GRAND OPENINGS : Active Adult Offering

Leisure Technology opens the model homes and a 20-unit increment of The Private Villas at Leisure Village Ocean Hills today, the first new homes released in five years in the active-adult community in Oceanside.

The two- and three-bedroom single-family houses are offered in five one- and two-story plans, with 1,594 to 2,630 square feet. Prices range from $254,990 to $324,990 and first move-ins are scheduled for March, 1990. The Private Villas will have 536 units when completed, according to Leisure Technology’s Joseph A. Gallagher, who added that more than 120 units were sold in Private Villas before today’s grand opening.

Designed by Berkus Group Architects, Santa Barbara, the houses are aimed at active retirees who want larger houses than are commonly offered in retirement communities, Gallagher said. At least one buyer in a household must be 55 or older. Five furnished models will be open daily 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. at 4681 Cyrus Way, reached from the eastbound California 78 exit of Interstate 5.

Moreno Valley Homes

The first increment of 30 single-family houses opens today in Cambria, a 150-unit development by Bramalea Homes in the Towngate master-planned community in Moreno Valley.

Three floor plans, each with four bedrooms and three bathrooms are offered, ranging in size from 2,135 to 2,493 square feet and in price from $164,000 to $196,000. The project features Mediterranean-styled architecture by Bassenian/Lagoni, Newport Beach.

Move-ins are scheduled for mid-November, in the “affordable move-up” community, according to Bramalea sales director Tim Galvin. Three furnished models are open daily from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. at 22562 Belaire Drive, reached from the southbound Frederick Drive exit of the Pomona (60) Freeway.

4 Builders’ Homes

Laband Village, a master-planned 972-acre community developed by Rivendell Management Group in Chino Hills, opens this weekend with four home builders unveiling their first-phase models.

The builders are Zellner Communities, Warmington Homes, the Fieldstone Co. and Brock Homes.

Zellner’s project, the 98-home Autumn Hill, is priced from the mid-$200,000s; Warmington’s 153-home Oakmont Ridge, from the low $300,000s; the 213-home Fieldstone Classics, from the $200,000s; the 207-home Fieldstone Collection, from the $300,000s, and Brock’s 141 houses, from the high $200,000s.

More than half the acreage at Laband will be devoted to open space and parks. There also will be a lake with a waterfall, bicycle and jogging paths, a fitness course and equestrian trails connected to the Chino Hills system.

The development is at the crossroads of Grand Avenue and Chino Hills Parkway, reached from California 57 north to California 60 east or from the Riverside (91) Freeway east to the Corona (71) Freeway north.
