By Cameron Sullivan For some new-home buyers, the greatest joy, excitement and comfort comes from including several generations of the family. And while home improvements might make an older residence suitable for multiple generations under the same roof, builders have cracked the code on multigen- erational designs. Over the past couple of years and into the foreseeable future, choosing an all-new home situated in a community that meets everyone's needs can be one of the best decisions multigenerational fami- lies will ever make. Let's explore how builders and their communities are defin- ing the look and feel of multigenerational living in California. It's taking shape in ways involving not only the homes and the families themselves, but the municipalities in which they live. West Sac is a hidden gem for all generations West Sacramento takes an active and inclu- sive approach to plan- ning and programming for people of all ages. "West Sacramento as a whole focuses on being a very age-friendly community," says David Jans, a 20-year resident who volunteers as chair- man of the West Sacra- mento Parks, Recreation and Intergenerational Services Commis- sion. The name of the commission (PRIS) speaks volumes about the city's inclusion of its youngest and oldest residents in program- ming decisions. The city's parks department operates the West Sacramento Recreation Center, a full-service activi- ties, fitness and sports center catering to all ages. Amenities include pickleball and tennis; swimming pools for lap swim, water exercise and recreation; a cardio and strength equipment room; group classes; and a youth corner. "West Sacramento is truly an up-and-coming city," says Robin Ingram, a Coldwell Banker luxury agent who, along with Coldwell Banker's Kim Griffiths, repre- sents Parella Estates and its builder, Monley Cronin. "This is a charming community." The resulting improvements to services and activities will amaze the new resi- dents of Parella Estates, a community of 26 semi-custom homes on 1-acre lots. This community takes advantage of a location just a short distance from walking and bike trails, the West Sacramento River Walk, and Old Town Sacramento across the river. Residents will also find themselves conveniently located only a half-mile from the West Sacramento Recreation Center.
