Lock-and-leave means you can lock your home, leave for the weekend and have no worries about front yard maintenance, whether mowing, raking leaves or other maintenance concerns you would have for your front yard with a traditional single-family home community.*<\/p>\n<h2>Juniper at University District<\/h2>\n<p>Our neighborhood in Rohnert Park features three cluster floor plans in a lock-and-leave environment. Lifestyle amenities are paramount at this master-planned community. Because outdoor community space is key to the lock-and-leave lifestyle, where high-maintenance yards are not the norm, this 260-acre community includes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A future 7-acre commercial center with restaurants and boutique shops<\/li>\n<li>60 acres of open space<\/li>\n<li>An on-site public park with soccer fields, baseball diamonds and picnic areas<\/li>\n<li>Great location in Sonoma County, three miles from Sonoma State University and Green Music Center<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>When you purchase a new home at Juniper at University District, you can be free to experience the best of wine country and the surrounding area with less worries!<\/p>\n<h2>Lock-and-leave homes<\/h2>\n<p>Just because a community is lock-and-leave (a.k.a., minimal yardwork) doesn\u2019t mean the homes are devoid of personal outdoor spaces. All of the floor plans at Juniper at University District have covered backyard patios available. These single, detached homes within the neighborhood are grouped in clusters of six to build a sense of community within the neighborhood.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe beauty of lock-and-leave communities is that you can take advantage of all the benefits of homeownership with less day-to-day upkeep,\u201d said Oren Hershkovich, Division President.<\/p>\n<p>The floor plans at Juniper at University District feature the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>From the upper $500s<\/li>\n<li>1,960 to 2,490 sq. ft.<\/li>\n<li>3 to 5 bedrooms<\/li>\n<li>Open concept floor plans<\/li>\n<li>Alternate master bath layouts with spacious walk-in showers<\/li>\n<li>Gourmet kitchens with separate cooktops and double ovens<\/li>\n<li>Extra bedrooms available<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Several quick move-in homes will be completed between now and February.** For details about these homes or more information about Juniper at University District, please call 707.346.8033.<\/p>\n<p><em>*Backyard spaces at Juniper at University District may be low maintenance, but are not maintained by the community.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>**Closing dates are subject to change and cannot be guaranteed.
