A stone’s throw from downtown Modesto
The small neighborhood of Bystorm offers the best of both worlds for anyone looking for city excitement at a lower price point. The community is just outside of downtown Modesto and is also tucked against Ceres, a neighboring city known for its agricultural industry. Bystorm itself is filled with small homes with an accessible price point, lively local markets and recreation options along the Tuolumne River. “People come to Modesto for affordability and lifestyle. I hear comments from people who are migrating from the Bay Area who want a slower pace of life and less congestion of traffic and people,” says Joyce Fritz, a Realtor and founder of 12 Doors Real Estate who has been in Modesto since 2008.
Bystorm offers midcentury styles and private lots
Bystorm has a mix of midcentury bungalows and ranch-style homes, two-story builds that have been recently remodeled, and mobile homes with an accessible price tag. Regardless of style, homes often have gated front yards and driveways along with fenced-in backyards for plenty of privacy. Between yards and driveways, neighborhood streets are planted with abundant palm and columnar trees. Single-family houses tend to range between $300,000 to $600,000, while mobile homes cost between $100,000 and $200,000 – a lower price point than similar properties closer to the coast. “The closer you get to the Bay Area, prices go out. San Francisco can be frightfully expensive, but Modesto is relatively affordable,” says Deni Royer, a Realtor with Berkshire Hathway Home Services Drysdale Properties who has lived in Modesto since 1979.
