Mountain Home Neighborhood —One of Woodside, California’s most equestrian-friendly neighborhoods
The vast majority of Mountain Home Road residents are self-proclaimed horse-people. With homes bordering horse trails, numerous annual equestrian events, and proximity to Wunderlich County Park, there is no better place in Woodside, California to enjoy horses. Coupled with a beautiful, convenient location, an excellent school district, and a strong sense of community, Mountain Home Road even makes a great place for those that don’t own horses, too.
Mountain Home Neighborhood Real Estate Insider
Homes in the Mountain Home Road neighborhood of Woodside, California sell between $2.5 million and $5 million with the median home in 2006 priced at $4.1 million. Lots are generally large, providing ample room for cottages with a barn and pasture or sprawling estates with mansions.
About half of the residents in Mountain Home Road own horses, while the town council and other residents are generally very supportive of equestrian culture. Horse trails run through the neighborhood and occasionally run through private properties, in which case access is at the discretion of its owner. Alternately, Wunderlich Park is a mere 10 minutes away on horseback.
Despite the horse-friendly atmosphere, the neighborhood is undergoing changes as it grows and develops. Construction on very large new and renovated homes is a constant and the large lots and upscale houses are attracting a different class of residents and shopping is now available along Woodside Road. However, residents are certain that Mountain Home Road will remain an equestrian-friendly enclave.
