There are 3 and 4 bedroom plans, each with the bedrooms upstairs and the main living space and half bath downstairs. Units have a patio, and a balcony off the master suite. Monthly association dues range from about $220 – $250 per month.

The Historic Carriage District is one of Santa Maria's oldest and most charismatic neighborhoods. Have you seen my video about the Carriage District? Older homes aren't for everyone - they are truly a labor of love. I grew up in this neighborhood (on Palm Court Drive) and it resides in my heart. There is a significant amount of Santa Maria history in this neighborhood. The Carriage District lies on both sides of Speed Street, between Broadway and Miller and it is anchored by the Santa Maria Inn and Santa Maria High School's Ethel Pope Auditorium.
I know the media is saying that the real estate market is in the dumps. And I guess if you were hoping to get housing boom level prices for your home, it is. But if you are a Santa Maria or Ocutt home owner who needs to sell your home, you should know that the Santa Maria real estate market is hot! Why do I say that? Because homes that are priced in line with today's market that are not short sales, sell in less than a week. I feel as if this is a hidden secret of today's market place. Everyone believes that it is hard to sell your home right now, but even short sales that are well priced are receiving multile offers right now.
