Searching for a new home in the Inland Empire? We don’t blame you! In addition to spectacular scenery (think tranquil lakes and majestic mountains), the region boasts a blend of small-town charm, attractive housing options and desirable amenities, including shops, restaurants, gardens, parks, museums, theaters and more.  

There are many floor plans to choose from in Riverside County, California, but the Tourmaline is a popular pick among area homebuyers. Here’s a glimpse of some of the fabulous features you’ll find in this inviting Seasons™ Collection home.

Typical Tourmaline specs:

• 3 to 5 bedrooms
• 2.5 to 3 baths
• Approx. 2,650 to 2,680 sq. ft.
• 2- to 3-car garage

Floor plan highlights:

Versatile flex space

We recognize that flexibility is key for today’s homebuyers, and the Tourmaline plan was designed with your convenience in mind. It offers a large “flex room” that can be used as a home office, home gym, craft room, game room, playroom and more. The beauty of the flex room is that it can evolve along with your family’s changing needs.

Open entertaining areas

If you’re seeking ample space for entertaining, the Tourmaline fits the bill! The main floor of the must-see plan offers a spacious great room (with an optional fireplace), an open dining room and a well-appointed kitchen, complete with a center island and generous walk-in pantry. But that’s not all! Center-meet doors in the kitchen (and dining area at some communities) lead onto an optional covered patio, so you can take the party outside year-round, given Riverside’s moderate temperatures.

Multi-purpose loft

The Tourmaline also features a large loft, which can be optioned as a fourth bedroom for added versatility. Much like the plan’s flex room, this space can serve a variety of purposes—from a lounging spot to a homework station to an impromptu dance floor for the kids!

Elegant owner’s suite

An owner’s suite is at the top of many new home wish lists, and the Tourmaline plan doesn’t disappoint. In addition to a spacious bedroom with two optional windows for even more natural light, it boasts an attached bathroom with dual sinks and a shower and an immense walk-in closet. Did we mention that the suite is located directly across from the loft—instead of the bedrooms—so you’ll be able to enjoy extra privacy?

It’s all in the designer details…

We believe that every new home should be as unique as its residents. That’s why we offer homebuyers hundreds of exciting structural and design options for their living spaces. Want to add the aforementioned covered patio to your Tourmaline home? Go for it! Daydreaming of a kitchen with crisp white cabinets and countertops? Not a problem! Everyone who builds a brand-new home with us can work with professional designers at our Home Gallery™ to showcase their unique style and bring their vision to life.
