Does Acton Only Have Ranch Properties?

Although Acton has plenty of ranch type properties, there are still a few somewhat traditional neighborhoods to be found. Overall, the lots and homes are larger and it’s obvious residents enjoy more elbow room and privacy. Also, most homes are larger single story type dwellings. Though you might find an occasional guest home type property, there are no condos or town homes to be found in Acton.

Here in Acton, the weather is a bit more harsh than in Santa Clarita and for the most part, so don’t see perfectly manicured green lawns. On the other hand, there are some nicely maintained ranch type properties, perfect for horses, etc. Still, lots of dirt so if that’s a problem, Acton is probably not a good choice.

What to Expect When Buying In Acton

If considering buying a home, there are some good deals to be had on nice custom homes. However, anytime buying ranch or country property it’s important to do your homework and be cautious. Because of the land involved and some of the specifics about the community, there are some unique challenges with regard to any real estate related transactions. Zoning, utility and sewer connections need to be fully investigated. There could also be easements that can impact any sale.
