For years, buyers in Glendora had to make a choice: buy an older home with character
(but old plumbing) or move to a different city for new construction.

La Colina Estates changed that.

This is the most significant luxury new home development Glendora has seen in decades. If you

are relocating and want a turn-key, modern estate, this is where we should look first.


Modern Luxury Defined

Built by Taylor Morrison, these homes are designed for the way we live today. We’re talking

about open-concept "Great Rooms,

" massive kitchen islands, multi-generational suites (perfect

for in-laws), and indoor-outdoor California rooms. You get the high ceilings and the energy

efficiency that you just can't find in a 1950s build.


The "Poppy" and "Iris" Plans

The floor plans here, like the popular Poppy and Iris models, are spacious, ranging from approx.

3,000 to over 5,000 square feet. They are designed to maximize the views of the foothills, which

serve as the development's backdrop.


A Financial Bonus: No Mello-Roos

This is a huge deal for relocating buyers. many new developments in California come with

"Mello-Roos" (a special tax bond). La Colina Estates does not have Mello-Roos. This can save

you thousands of dollars a year in property taxes compared to similar new builds in neighboring

cities.


The Vibe

Because it is new, the neighborhood is full of energy. New neighbors are moving in, meeting

each other, and forming a fresh community. It’s exciting to be part of something from the ground

up.
