Another 81 Lots In Sommers Bend Community Approved For New Homes

TEMECULA, CA — Another 81 single-family homes are being built in the Sommers Bend community on the northeast end of Temecula.

During the March 16 Temecula Planning Commission meeting, the commissioners voted 4-0 to approve plans for the 81 lots featuring three different detached single-family home plans with four architectural styles. Commissioner John H. Telesio was absent.

The four architectural styles include American farmhouse, craftsman, Monterey, and prairie.

The approved 12.2-acre development area is to the east of Butterfield Stage Road, off Sommers Bend. The 81 lots will have a minimum size of 3,600 square feet and will feature two-story homes ranging in size from 1,837 to 2,442 square feet, according to city staff.

Woodside Homes is the project applicant.

The development is part of the Roripaugh Ranch Specific Plan. In total, the RRSP calls for just over 2,000 homes on approximately 805 acres. Commercial development is also proposed for the area.
