The Rivers is a 200 acre master-planned community located in Wes
t Sacramento just across the I Street Bridge from Downtown Sacramento. If you are looking for a neighborhood to relocate, the Rivers is certainly one to consider.
This community is convenient to freeways, Amtrak and the airport, Raley Field as well as the cultural opportunities offered in Downtown Sacramento.
With distinctive homes and custom home sites along the river where parks, meandering lakes and walking trails are just one of the many amenities. The entire master-planned community has not been fully built out. However, there are 3 distinct areas which are:
- Silvershore are Executive waterfront homes by the Sacramento River with a minimum of 3,295 square feet with 4-5 Bedrooms.
- Grandview section homes have 4-6 Bedrooms ranging from 2,358 sq. ft. to 4,878 sq. ft. on 9,000 square foot lots
- Cascades
Home buyers will love the 40 acres that have been designated as private parks with play equipment and a K-8 school is planned for down the line by the north entrance along with an Aquatic Park. This is a gated community with 24 hour security service. Even a fishing dock for those just getting started as official fishing enthusiasts has been made part of this master planned community.
The Rivers is a Home Owners Association were there are rules and regulations that each homeowner must adhere to. For more HOA information be sure to read The Rivers Community Association and check out the rules, regulations and restrictions of the covenant. Want to learn more about the Rivers, just click and read the City Council document for phase II of the Rivers. As a home buyer it is always important to read the CC& R’s to make sure you don’t have a problem adhering to the rules of the association prior to buying a house.
Another great amenity is the clubhouse at the Rivers with a pool and party room to rent out.


Remember, this is a community that is still growing and is close to downtown Sacramento located in West Sacramento which is in Yolo County. Always my pleasure to list homes for sale and help home buyers purchase homes in this lovely area known as The Rivers.





Hi,
I would like to know the home prices in the rivers, I am interested and would like to buy. but cant seem to find a centralized list of the home prices.
Dee, the home in the Rivers are quite nice and most are either Short Sales or Bank Owned. Depending on the square footage depends upon the price. If you don’t have a Realtor, it would be my pleasure to help you with finding a home in The Rivers.
Are there single level homes and what are the riverfront homes priced like?
Currently, there is a Short Sale one-story home that has an accepted offer by the seller and the offer is waiting for bank approval. The listing price is $225,000 for a 5 bedroom, 3 bath home with 1976 square feet. In April of this year a 4 bedroom, 3 bath single-story home in The Rivers sold for $231,000 that was a Short Sale and another single story home with 3 Bedroom, 2 baths with 1965 sq.ft. sold in January for $225,000 that was bank owned. Most of the homes that have been for sale in The Rivers on the River side have been 2 story though. Hope that helps you.
Thx. We’re from Davis and are empty nesters now and thinking that we need to downsize. We may be doing a bit of traveling so low maintenance is also an issue. We’d like to be close enough to still take advantage of Davis on occasion but also Sac. Seems like this area is an interesting possibility. We would prefer a single level around 2,000 square feet or so. How would we be able to actually see what they look like or at least see what the floor plans are like. Did Grupe default on the development or did they sell everything to flippers. Are there any single levels for sale or anticipated over the next 12 months?

I’d love to help you. The builder is not building right now and those homes that are for sale at The Rivers are either Short Sale or Foreclosed, Bank Owned homes. If you like I can let you know when a 1 story comes available.
Hi
I would like to get any information that you have on homes for sale in the Rivers. It sounds like there may be quite a few short sales or bank owned…we are looking for a home on the river.
Thanks

Hello Gena my family and i were interested in looking at short sale homes in the rives. I see your last post was in Sept. 2010 was wondering if you were still avaliable to give advice and lead our family in the right direction. Thank you
Absolutely, April. I sent you an email this evening. I look forward to working with you and your family.
Hi Gena –
My husband and I are relocating from Colorado to California. We are military and will be based at Travis, but will only be at Travis 2 days a week. The other three days he will work in Sacramento. We are looking at the Rivers as an option? Can you give me any information because we are totally lost. We just turned 30 with no children and we like the idea of being near downtown but with a suburban feel. Also, I found information about Regatta on the Rivers and Riva on the Rivers. Are those in the River community? First and most importantly we need a safe place because I will be alone frequently. Any information would be appreciated!!!!
I would love to help you and responded to you via Facebook since you sent me an email from there.
What’s the current selection of homes in The Rivers for all three areas (including short sales, etc all)? I’ve looking through Zillow, but there’s just a couple. Email me if possible
-Thanks!
Do you currently have any homes for sale on the river?
Hi Donna, if you would like me to help represent you, I would be happy to. Just give me a call at 916-417-2699
