As strange as this year has been, when it comes to the housing market, now is actually a great time to buy, especially if you’re interested in securing a home in stunning Pleasant Hill, California. Pleasant Hill has many new neighborhoods that feature some of the top trends in home design. From elegant to vintage to modern chic, let’s take a look at the top trends in Pleasant Hill new homes.
As of 2020, we’re noticing a resurgence of Craftsman style homes in the Pleasant Hill real estate market. It’s easy to see why these older styles are making a come back as an attractive option for buyers. The exposed rafters and front porch columns make for a house with big curb appeal—and a cozy living space. While Craftsman houses first emerged in the US around the turn of the 20th century, plenty of new construction features have been added to update this charming, classical style. Bonus trend: bolder house color options, including a sunny pale yellow, or even blue.
Another popular design trend in Pleasant Hill new homes is the Hacienda style. Hacienda homes take after Spanish architecture. It emphasizes the area surrounding the home to create a palatial, personal escape. There’s no better way of doing this than with a water feature. Several homes in the area feature stunning fountains, ponds, or vibrant foliage in order to create an overgrown oasis. Coupled with some exterior lighting, it’s no wonder why this is such a popular style.
Exteriors are one thing, but the interior design of a home is just as important. Cozy and hygge is in, and that means fireplaces, hearths, and larger living rooms. Exposed brick and shiplap walls perfectly complement this aesthetic, as does a Craftsman style exterior. Recessed lighting can add a touch of warmth to your home. Lookout for new houses that are “smart home” compatible, too. You’ll love the convenience of using Google Home or Alexa to control your lighting (and security)!

This charming city has enchanted home decor specialists as well as buyers for its trendy designs and beautiful neighborhoods. Pleasant Hill new homes are a great way to explore some of the hottest styles in the housing market.
