Builder proposes nine custom homes in Jefferson neighborhood with simultaneous construction plan

In a recent Planning Commission meeting in San Mateo County, developers presented an ambitious plan to construct nine custom homes, aiming for a streamlined approach to grading and construction. The developers, who also engage in land development, emphasized their strategy to tackle the project as a single development rather than piecemeal, which would involve multiple individual lot grading plans.

The timeline for this project is optimistic, with hopes to begin grading in the spring or summer of next year, aiming for completion by 2021. However, this timeline hinges on navigating the engineering, design review, and permitting processes. The developers plan to offer a variety of home styles, including craftsman, Mediterranean, and prairie designs, ensuring each lot receives the unique treatment of a custom home while being built simultaneously.

Access to the homes will primarily be from Jefferson Street, with the first three lots utilizing individual driveways that do not depend on the completion of a new roadway. The developers are also working on a neighboring property, which includes a single-family home that is part of a lot line adjustment related to this proposal.

As the meeting unfolded, the developers expressed their commitment to quality and efficiency, aiming to create a cohesive community while addressing the logistical challenges of construction. The Planning Commission's response to the proposal will be crucial as the project moves forward, reflecting the community's needs and the developers' vision for the area.
