Calavera Hills - Hillside Master Planned Community in Carlsbad, CA

Entrance to Calavera Hills in Carlsbad CA

 

Calavera Hills is another of Carlsbad's master planned communities (see also La Cost Ridge and La Costa Greens - links below).

Location, views, and affordability combine to make this a community worthy of your attention if you are shopping in the Carlsbad real estate market.

Carlsbad is located about 30 miles from San Diego, and Calavera Hills is situated on rolling hills in the northeast corner, east of Carlsbad Village and bordering on Oceanside.

Most of the homes have been built and are occupied, although the final phase of homes is being sold in Ravinia, built by The Corky McMillin Companies. Only a handful of lots are still available to purchase as of April 2007.

There is also a new elementary school (Calavera Hills Elementary) and middle school.
