California encompasses a huge variety of topographical and climactic conditions. This incredible diversity is outlined by four distinct regions--the Sierra Nevada sprawls across the east; the Coast Ranges in subsume the west; the Central valley is a flat, agricultural area between; and the southeast is typified by the Mojave and Colorado deserts. Average temperatures range from the upper forties in the Sierra Nevada to low seventies (Fahrenheit) in the southeast’s Imperial Valley. The cities and communities of California all benefit from its grandiose beauty. Rolling pastures in Newport Beach, magnificent mountains surrounding Redding, and the canyons of Laguna Beach all are a part of California’s incredible mosaic of land formations, built up like vast, enduring sandcastles stretching towards the sea.

LAGUNA BEACH Located midway between San Diego and Los Angeles, Laguna Beach is a haven for beach, art and nature lovers. With average daytime temperatures in the mid-70s in the summer months and mid-60s in the winter months, Laguna enjoys a very pleasant climate that warrants lots of time spent outdoors. “You won’t find a place with better year-round weather,” says Lee Ann Canaday of the Canaday Group and broker/owner of RE/MAX Fine Homes with offices in Laguna Beach and Newport Beach. “The gorgeous weather, sheer beauty of the area and nearby Village of Laguna Beach, along with all the activities available make this a unique place to live,” Lee Ann explains.

REDDING Redding, a true northern California city, is located in the Sacramento Valley at the top of the Central Valley region. One of the hidden cities among many other popular Cal-ifornia names, Redding is strategically located only three hours north of Sacramento and the bay area, nearly at the precise midway point between Los Angeles and Seattle. Dynamic terrain and four distinct seasons allow for a wide range of outdoor recreation within Redding and its surrounding areas. Loose grids of connected river trails and streams provide ideal conditions for year-round fly fishing. Shasta Lake—a reservoir with over 356 miles of shoreline— maintains an abundance of King Salmon and Rainbow and Brown Trout, giving locals a chance to trump their last record-breaking catch. Houseboats skim the tops of these local waters, perusing coves, inlets and channels while soaking in Redding’s generous sunshine. The Sacramento River Trail, an 18-mile bike friendly trail spanning from the world famous Sundial Bridge to the most important piece of infrastructure for the Central Valley, Shasta Dam, unfolds in a scenic tour of Redding’s natural gardens, mountain ranges, and waterways. Mt. Shasta Ski Park, just an hour drive from Redding, offers snow-laden thrills

throughout 425 acres of terrain, accommodating beginners and advanced snowboarders and skiers. Supporting a population of approximately 100,000, Redding is geographically and conscientiously oriented to experience smart growth in the future. Shasta College, educating the job force and locals caters to new industries, bringing to light new ways to reduce waste and preserve Redding’s natural wonder. Distant wind turbines spinning on the horizon are not only an infrastructural marvel, but a signifier of an active environmental attentiveness. Many of the vineyards in Shasta County are grown under environmentally safe conditions, tapping into eco-friendly trends that value sustainable farming techniques. Smart homes with geo-thermal exchange systems featuring 250-foot wells, window tint for regulating temperature, and solar roof tiles aim to trim down energy costs while preserving nonrenewable resources. According to realtor Rick Philips, of Real Living Real Estate Professionals, Redding’s outdoorsy culture simultaneously supports and is supported by its conservation efforts, evident through a general striving to fuse its truly awe-inspiring outdoor environment with a higher, sustainable standard of living.

PADUA STABLES Ocala, Florida
A BUYERS GALLERY of FINE HOMES®
FEATURED PROPERTY FLORIDA
By Nicole Lauber
Located in Ocala, Florida—a town rich with history and tradition—is Padua Stables: an exceptional equine property in a serene rural setting that’s minutes from big-city amenities. “Padua Stables is truly one of the most picturesque and unique equine properties available,” says Satish Sanan, the owner of Padua Stables. “The breathtaking views of the rolling acres dotted with live oaks and punctuated by a beautiful, large lake at the heart of the farm make it such an idyllic setting to breed, break and train horses.” The property consists of approximately 763 acres, with an 8,000-square-foot main residence overlooking the largest lake on the property. Between the main estate, lakeside guest house, management houses and employee dormitory, Padua Stables is a great place to entertain and conduct business. “The housing located on the farm for management and staff guarantees 24-hour care to your horses and grounds,” Mr. Sanan says. With both a three-quarter-mile dirt track and one-mile turf gallop, modeled after the turf gallops in Europe, the tracks allow for many different ways to train horses. This property is for someone who truly lives the equestrian lifestyle. A fully serviceable breeding shed and stallion barn, as well as foaling and quarantine facilities, allow every aspect of an equine business to occur under one roof. “Padua Stables is one of the few horse farms in the country that provides the ability to offer all areas of equine care and training at one farm, rather than having to ship your horses to several different locations,” Mr. Sanan says. Padua Stables is located within a 90minute drive of major attractions, including Disney World, Universal Studios, and Cape Canaveral. “Ocala allows you to have the perfect rural setting one would want for your equine establishment, while also providing the amenities one looks for to enjoy life with family and friends outside of the farm,” Mr. Sanan explains. “The city is truly a hidden gem.”

Famous Paranormal Home
Nestled in the Allegany Mountains, sits an innocent looking century old farmhouse, once a rest stop for westbound wagons. A dead-end dirt road still leads to the secluded ten-acre homestead with rolling meadows and a huge spring-fed pond. The two-story house is mostly original with 3-5 bedrooms, bath, kitchen, large living room and two enclosed porches. Home to over 12 SPIRITS – Yes, GHOSTS! It has been documented on the History Channel, U.S. and Canadian TV and in several books written by paranormal experts. They claim this is the most active and exciting site they ever experienced with 12 or more spirits residing in and around the property. These spirits are not figments of imagination – the homeowners, family, friends, neighbors, guests, clergy and paranormal experts have seen them in their entirety dressed in old fashion era clothing! They wish to live in peaceful coexistence and enjoy being mischievous by letting you know that they are there and watching over their beloved home. Ongoing research has found fascinating histories about the spirits that reside there – from the Civil War soldier who walks the dead-end road with a lantern to the little girl who dances and picks wildflowers by the pond to the soldier’s pregnant wife awaiting his return – they are all there to this VERY DAY! If you are a paranormal enthusiast, here is your chance to own this TOTALLY UNIQUE PROPERTY. What a great vacation home or imagine entertaining friends at your country get-away, where 12 full-time residents may leave the lights on for you! Sells as is – needs complete restoration.

Mountain Living A

Season Paradise
By Jaime Hyneman, Nicole Lauber and Amanda Williamson
Imagine seeing the untouched beauty of nature every day—residents of mountain towns, including Aspen, Glenwood Springs, Carbondale, Snowmass Village in Colorado, and Elk River in North Carolina, live this pristine lifestyle daily. These communities offer incomparable vistas and views of various famous mountains, including Red, Burnt, Baldy, Red, Smuggler, East, West Sopris and the Blue Ridge Mountains, among others.
Often called a “four season’s paradise,” mountain living showcases idealistic expressions of spring, summer, winter, and fall. Whether in Colorado or North Carolina, the spring complements soaring vistas with wild flowers; summer lends a mild heat during the day with cool, comfortable nights; autumn turns the foliage into the brilliant golds, reds, yellows, purples of fall; and winter unfurls a blanket of snow, turning the mountains and valleys into a winter wonderland. With every season in the midst of such splendor, it’s easy to see why many visitors come for outdoor activities during the colder months and decide to stay for extended adventures such as hiking, rock climbing, and hot air ballooning during the summer.

Aspen, Colorado You may have heard that Aspen, Colorado is a winter playground for A-listers and international jet-setters, but that does not mean this small town is only for the rich and the famous. “People have a misconception about Aspen because the media has portrayed it as glitz and glamour,” says Craig Morris, coowner of Morris & Fyrwald Sotheby’s Realty in Aspen. “But actually, Aspen is an ideal place to live for anyone because this city is small-town living with big-town amenities.” And he’s right—although Aspen has a population of only about 5,000 residents, the city has four world-renowned mountains that residents can enjoy year-round by skiing, snowboarding, hiking or biking. Residents and visitors have the opportunity to attend music, art, and food and wine festivals throughout the year, and fine dining and high-end shopping is a mainstay of the community.
Another thing year-round residents can enjoy is the incredible weather. “From June through September, our highs are in the 70s and 80s, but there’s virtually no humidity at all,” says Craig. “And our winters are great too—most winter days are sunny, and you can find residents in a short-sleeve shirt or light sweater enjoying the outdoors.” Of the abundance of activities in Aspen, Craig says that the active, outdoor lifestyle is extremely important to most, if not all, residents of Aspen—in fact, the Wall Street Journal recently reported that Colorado has the lowest obesity rate of the United States. Mix the active lifestyle with great schools for students of all ages, an excellent transportation system, and low crime rates, and Aspen becomes a perfect city for anyone, especially families, to live in. Craig notes that anyone looking for an exceptional quality of life should consider Aspen. “One of the sayings in Aspen is, ‘I came here for the winter, but stayed for the summer,’” Craig says. “The quality of life in Aspen is unbelievable.”
