Valencia by FivePoint, a master-planned community in the Santa Clarita Valley, is redefining sustainable living through thoughtful design and comprehensive eco-friendly initiatives. The community, which offers panoramic hillside views and protected open spaces, has been carefully planned to balance environmental stewardship with modern lifestyle amenities.
At the heart of Valencia's sustainability efforts are its homes, built to optimize energy efficiency with features such as rooftop solar panels, tankless water heaters, Low-E windows, and Level 2 EV chargers. The 16 diverse home collections, designed by prominent builders, range from 1,326 to 3,731 square feet and are priced from the upper $500,000s to over $1.3 million. These homes not only reduce energy consumption but also lower utility costs for residents, making sustainable living more affordable in the long run.
Transportation is another key component of Valencia's eco-friendly design. Through VALENCIA GO®, a transportation management organization, residents have access to subsidy programs for zero-emission vehicles, e-bikes, and transit. A recent $100,000 contribution from VALENCIA GO to Santa Clarita Transit will bring a zero-emission bus to the community, connecting residents to downtown Santa Clarita and top-ranked schools. The Mobility Hub at Verve Park offers electric car-sharing and bikeshare programs, further reducing reliance on fossil fuels.
The community's commitment to sustainability extends to its parks and open spaces. Confluence Park, Verve Park, and Riparian Park provide residents with ample opportunities for outdoor recreation, from swimming pools and community gardens to trails and playgrounds. These spaces not only promote physical activity but also foster a sense of community and connection to nature.
Valencia by FivePoint is also dedicated to education, with children attending the Newhall, Saugus, and William S. Hart school districts. The proximity to quality schools is a major draw for families, as is the community's family-oriented atmosphere.
With a goal of net zero greenhouse gas emissions and zero-net-energy homes and buildings, Valencia by FivePoint is setting a new standard for sustainable development. The installation of hundreds of EV charging stations across Los Angeles County and plans for a future transportation hub underscore the community's long-term commitment to environmental responsibility.
