Suburban mountain oasis

At the base of the often snow-capped San Bernardino and San Gabriel Mountains, East Highlands shelters a suburban community close to the best of what the Inland Empire has to offer. Founded as a community in the late 19th century, the area was central to the Inland Empire’s agricultural and timber trade, contributing through its bountiful orange groves and logging operations as the region developed. Major freeways provide residents with simple commutes to neighboring cities while at the same time enjoying stylish homes with scenic walking and biking trails. Residents enjoy East Highland's central location. “East Highland price-point wise is slightly lower than Redlands. And it is just a short drive to Rancho Cucamonga and Redlands ever since they connected the 10 to the 210 freeway. It’s right at the base of the San Bernardino mountains and you have gorgeous views of the mountains,” says Cristina Caministeanu, Realtor with eXp Realty. In only 45 minutes you can drive between the mountains and the Pacific Ocean.

Newer builds with Spanish touches

A relatively newer development, Caministeanu noted most of the homes in East Highlands were built in the late 1980s and 90s with newer builds in the East Highland Ranch homeowner’s association on the neighborhood’s east side. East Highland Ranch has numerous amenities including walking trails, two pools, clubhouses and basketball/tennis courts. “For families it is absolutely great. You don’t have to leave the neighborhood to get what you need,” Caministeanu said. Tract homes are common with the residential market is mainly comprised of single-family houses with residents living on winding hillside streets and around quiet cul-de-sacs, all with clear views of the region’s looming mountain ranges. Most dwellings were built with regional architectural styles, Spanish Revival is one of the most popular with stucco exteriors and terracotta tile roofing. Spanish stylistic touches are often incorporated into other architectural molds, such as ranch-style builds. A common sight in East Highlands, ranch homes are built low and wide for equal distribution of heat and for homeowners to take advantage of every inch of living space. More traditional designs honor classic architectural styles of the past while incorporating the clean lines and symmetry typical of modern home styles. The median home price in East Highlands is $600,000 with most homes falling between $500,000 to $800,000. For people in the market for a home, the lower price point in East Highlands is a major selling point, with the neighborhood having the benefits of being close to Redlands and Loma Linda University.
