After researching, call me at 925-852-1659 for questions or a community tour.

Summerset was built from 1994-2005, with 26 floor plans & over 2,000 homes;  the 27-hole Brentwood Golf Club runs throughout the communities.  (This golf course is public, so Summerset does NOT support the course’s operation.)  HOA dues range from $95-$145, depending on community. Summerset has 4 gated communities; each community with bocce, tennis, pool, clubhouse and activities. Summerset residents can attend activities in the other communities, giving buyers multiple options on events/clubs/outings.  Click for SUMMERSET Listings

Trilogy Vineyards, a Shea Development,was first constructed in 2006, and they are still being built. When completed, the community will number around 1050 homes.   Trilogy Vineyards is surrounded by grapevines & olive trees. Home sizes range from 1460-3000+ square feet.  The focus of the development is Club Los Meganos (the main clubhouse, restaurant & spa)   If you love wine, the Wine Barn is a great gathering place to bottle & enjoy your grape of choice.   HOA Dues are $346/month.  Building your dream is a great experience!  However, if you can find somebody else’s dream, you usually save yourself money & frustration with a re-sale home.   Click for TRILOGY VINEYARD Re-sale Listings

UPDATED 7/28/2020 - This real estate blog’s focus is Summerset & Trilogy Vineyards; two “55+ communities” in Brentwood CA.   Half of the year is now over, and we are still experiencing Covid’s hold on our lives.  With the “over 55” buyer at a higher risk for this disease, many buyers have stalled their home search.  Buyers are out looking, but not in the numbers of previous summers.  With this softening, many more options are available. 

Trilogy Vineyards, first constructed in 2006, will number +/-1050 homes when completed.  Trilogy Vineyards is a resort lifestyle, with the beautiful Club Los Meganos at its core.  Indoor/Outdoor member dining, indoor/outdoor pools, tennis/bocce courts are all part of Trilogy living.  Home’s range from 1460-3000+ square feet.  The many gated villages surround the resort; HOA monthly dues are currently $346/month.  You can build your dream home, which is a great experience!  However, if you purchase somebody else’s dream, you may save yourself money,   frustration of upgrade selection, and rear yard installation.   One of Trilogy Vineyard’s most popular models is the Costa Dorada, brought back by buyer demand.  There are now 2 for re-sales, down from 4, ranging from $765K-$815K.  Click for TRILOGY VINEYARD Listings

Summerset homes are older, and may not have updated features.  However, homes are gently used, and start at a price point significantly less than Trilogy Vineyards.  Summerset’s 2000+ homes have the 27-hole Brentwood Golf Club, running throughout the communities.  (This golf course is public, so the community does NOT support the course’s operation.)  HOA monthly dues range from $95-$155, depending on community.  There  are 2 golf course homes for sale priced at $600K & $699K.  Summerset homes range in size from 980 – 2600+ sq. ft; something for every budget!  Click for SUMMERSET Listings

UPDATED 5/23/2020 -   HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND!   May is normally a month of preparing for graduations, weddings, Memorial Day parties & vacations.  This month, we’re focusing on the easing of restrictions, and ways to social distance.  Great news --- buyers can now view occupied homes!  This was a huge win, as many buyers want to “feel” the home, before they write an offer.  Open Houses & Broker Tours are still NOT allowed.  Also, no more than 2 buyers in home, at one time.  Summerset & Trilogy Vineyard home sales were slowed these last 2 months, as both buyers/sellers are the age most impacted by the virus.  Restrictions are easing, so if you want to view a home in person or via virtual tour, give me a call.
