Alta Sierra, CA Mobile Home for Sale

In Alta Sierra, the rolling landscape of the Sierra Nevada foothills serves as the setting for a sprawling planned development. This Nevada County community dates to the 1960s, when ranch land began to be converted into an area encompassing thousands of homes, a community golf course, a well-rated elementary school and a private airport. Still, housing prices remain relatively affordable, particularly for the entry-level homes here. “You can actually get a fairly good value, because there are quite a few homes on the market there,” says Mimi Simmons, an area Realtor at Team Simmons and Century 21 Cornerstone Realty, with about 40 years of experience. “The homeowners association is volunteer-only. It has the attraction of being below the snowline, and easy access to Highway 49 for commuting to Sacramento or up to the slopes.” Alta Sierra has almost 3,000 homes, and they’re far from cookie-cutter. Some houses date to the ’60s, when the development first sprouted. Others were built as recently as the 2000s. The area’s eclectic mix of architecture includes ranch-style options, contemporary homes, farmhouses and Mediterranean-style houses. Roomy yards are a common denominator — Alta
