Sun City Lincoln Hills, a growing community

Sun City Lincoln Hills is a 55-plus community that offers its residents access to athletic recreation, clubs, classes and a wide range of entertainment options. Residents enjoy playing golf and visiting the area’s restaurants. The community is close to a plethora of retail and dining options in Roseville, Rocklin and downtown Lincoln. “The area is more affordable than Rocklin and Roseville because the houses are further from Downtown Sacramento,” says Susan Richards-Slavik, a realtor who sells homes in the area for Coldwell Banker Realty. “The area is becoming more developed every year.”

Condos and single-family homes

Sun City Lincoln Hills has over 6,700 single-family homes and 80 condominiums. Approximately 11,000 people live there.

Two-bedroom, two-bathroom early 2000s stucco-exterior homes with attached garages are generally valued between $470,000 and $710,000. Three-bedroom, two-bathroom early 2000s Spanish Colonial-style homes are valued between $740,000 and $1 million. A two-bedroom, three-bathroom late 1990s single-family home with an in-ground swimming pool and patio large enough to throw parties on is valued at $1.1 million.
