Brandywine Homes to Hold Grand Opening at Bradbury, a Gated Community in La Puente, Calif., on Saturday, June 9

LA PUENTE, Calif., June 07, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Brandywine Homes will hold a grand opening at Bradbury, a new infill community in La Puente offering 45 single-family detached homes on 3.87 acres, on Saturday, June 9. Interested home buyers are invited to view the model homes from 10am to 6pm.

"With easy access to all the urban amenities of Los Angeles and the serenity and safety of a gated community, Bradbury is the perfect choice for young professionals and families," said Dave Barisic, principal in charge of sales and marketing at Brandywine Homes, a pioneer of infill development in Southern California. "We're excited to show homebuyers these beautiful, timeless and low-maintenance new homes."

Bradbury is located at 747 Del Valle Avenue. The gated community, which includes a community recreation area, is offering two-story homes with three bedrooms and three bathrooms.

These stylish residences are designed with Spanish, Craftsman and Farmhouse architecture, and range in size from 1,843 to 2,087 square feet on 2,500-square-foot lots. The homes have great rooms, lofts, private yards, patios and two-car garages. The gourmet kitchens feature large islands with breakfast bars, and spacious master suites include large soaking tubs and walk-in closets.

La Puente, an up-and-coming city with a population of about 40,000, has very limited housing stock. The last new home housing tract was built almost 40 years ago, according to city officials. Close to Puente Hills Mall, Mt. San Antonio College, California State Polytechnic University, Pomona, the Dwight D. Eisenhower Golf Course and more, Bradbury offers convenient access to the 60, the 605 and the 10 freeways.

"Bradbury offers families a very rare opportunity to own a home in La Puente, which is consistently named one of California's safest places to live," Barisic said. "We don't expect these homes to stay on the market for long."

Interested homebuyers can receive more information about Bradbury here.
