Large Homesites Offer Luxury

Why Large Homesites Offer Luxury Living Without Limits

Yesterday’s standard homesites may have satisfied the average homeowner, but today’s sophisticated buyers demand more. As residences evolve into private offices, wellness sanctuaries, and multi-generational retreats, generous space, design flexibility, and uncompromised privacy are no longer luxuries—they are essential hallmarks of modern living.

But when you choose a home on a 1-2 acre lot, you get the freedom to truly live. Instead of compromising, you have the luxury of space to create a home that fits you and your lifestyle perfectly. Let’s explore the top benefits and possibilities of living on a large homesite.

Benefit #1: The ultimate in outdoor living and entertaining

The Northern California climate is perfect for outdoor entertaining nearly year-round. When you live on a large property, you have the room to make the most of your home’s exterior space and enjoy the beautiful weather in all its glory. Whether you’re entertaining on a spacious patio or creating a dream playscape for your children or grandchildren, the setting is yours to personalize.

One popular modification is adding a custom outdoor kitchen and dining area to create the ultimate outdoor living space. This not only keeps the heat out of the kitchen in the summer, but provides an exceptional al fresco dining experience year round. Or create your own personal retreat with an outdoor fire pit and lounge chairs so you can enjoy a summer night under the stars.

Benefit #2: Active living for all ages

Movement is key to staying healthy, but it can be hard to find the time and space for exercise in the hustle of the city. But when you have nature right outside your doorstep, taking a morning walk to enjoy the sunrise or an after-dinner stroll through the neighborhood is effortless.

Large homesites make it easy to create your own private fitness playground right in your own backyard. Whether it’s a pool, half-court basketball, a yoga area, a pickleball court, a volleyball court, or a bocce ball court, you have the room to make movement your favorite part of the day. For those with a green thumb, blend your love of gardening and desire movement into curated walking gardens that turn a simple stroll into a calming moment.

With the abundance of space, there’s plenty of room to create movement for the whole family, including a dream playscape for the kids.

Benefit #3: Extended living spaces

Today’s homes play a bigger role than simply a place to rest your head. They are our offices, hobby workshops, retreats, sometimes even storage units. Too many homeowners try to squeeze it all into small spaces, leading to frustration. But in a home with property, there’s room to explore your every interest, and even make sure there’s a dedicated guest space to make visitors feel right at home.

At Oakhaven by Blue Mountain Communities, select lots feature RV garages and ample space for your creative or professional passions, whether that’s a home gym, pottery studio, or garden workshop.

Benefit #4: Multigenerational living

With multigenerational households becoming more common, many homeowners are searching for room for every generation, ensuring independence and privacy for the whole family while still staying connected. With a large homesite, you have the flexibility to build a multigenerational retreat that meets everyone’s needs.

Add a casita or guest house in a private corner of the property to create privacy and freedom for older generations, add a slide to the pool for the kids, and bring everyone together over a good meal in your stunning outdoor dining area.

Select Oakhaven homesites offer the perfect setup for a multigenerational lifestyle, with space for a casita or guest suite that balances independence with connection.

Living on a large homesite is more than just having space—it’s the rare opportunity to create the life you’ve always imagined.

At Oakhaven, Blue Mountain Communities’ award-winning, gated neighborhood in Rescue, CA, you’ll find luxury single-story homes on expansive one- to two-acre estate lots, surrounded by the scenic beauty of the El Dorado foothills.
