This week I am featuring Folsom, a city east of Sacramento…. Folsom has a strong sense of community that embraces its history…. There is a really good Saturday farmer’s market on Sutter Street, outdoor shopping at the Palladio, and many miles of trails to explore….. Numerous top rated schools and beautiful parks complement easy access to Folsom Lake…. For those who like to travel it’s about 40 minutes to the Sacramento Airport…. Most commutes to Sacramento from Folsom are about 30 minutes via the freeway….. Or, an alternative is light rail which travels on a regular schedule between Folsom and Sacramento…..

If Folsom sounds like a community that you would be interested in, then please consider my deal of the week…. Reduced $60,000 and on the market since February, this home is now priced at $925,000….. This five bedroom, four bathroom home has over 3,300 square feet of living space and a nice lot…. Built in 2003, there is a bedroom with bathroom on the first floor…. Plus, the home is only two miles from Folsom Point’s boat launch…. A similar Folsom home built in 1999 that’s priced $100,000 higher just accepted an offer…. That home was originally almost $1,200,000 ….. To find out more about my deal of the week please visit the Capital Fifth website at www.capital5th.com
