High-end homes
With housing demand — and prices — shooting through the roof, it’s no surprise that a recent wave of high-end housing is taking root within the arroyos and valleys of Inland Southern California.
The 580-acre Vellano project in Chino Hills will offer semi-custom homes priced between $900,000 and $1.5 million as well as 50 lots for custom homes starting at $600,000. The development will overlook a planned Greg Norman Signature Golf Course.
“The vision is to create the finest country-club community between Los Angeles and Palm Springs,” said Louis Fernandez, director of development for the project.
When it comes to exalted home prices, Vellano will overtake The Retreat, another gated country-club community of about 550 houses under development by Ontario-based Empire Companies. The Retreat will include a new Jack Nicklaus golf course and is located just off Interstate 15 in the hills abutting the Cleveland National Forest south of Corona.

The Vellano project comes on the heels of similar large-scale luxury home projects in Corona and Rancho Cucamonga as well as smaller, custom-home developments in Temecula, Riverside, and Redlands.
