For some new-home buyers, the greatest joy, excitement and comfort comes from including several generations of the family. And while home improvements might make an older residence suitable for multiple generations under the same roof, builders have cracked the code on multigenerational designs.
“West Sacramento as a whole focuses on being a very age-friendly community,” says David Jans, a 20-year resident who volunteers as chairman of the West Sacramento Parks, Recreation and Intergenerational Services Commission. The name of the commission speaks volumes about the city’s inclusion of its youngest and oldest residents in programming decisions.
This community takes advantage of a location just a short distance from walking and bike trails, the West Sacramento River Walk, and Old Town Sacramento across the river. Residents will also find themselves conveniently located only a half-mile from the West Sacramento Recreation Center.

Typically, the lot on which the primary residence sits needs to be around 6,000 square feet in size. But on some properties with less land, Perpetual can avoid that land requirement by attaching the ADU to the main home. Anderson says Perpetual ADU works with buyers in any part of the state. Many of their projects are in Napa and Sonoma counties and they frequently work in Placer County and El Dorado County along with Contra Costa, Santa Clara and Alameda counties.
Of the six single-family floor plans, several have the option for a downstairs bedroom and a full bathroom. Many buyers use this space either as an in-law suite, a home office or a suite for a grown child. And all residents are thrilled about the location that has something for everyone in any age group of the family.
Jane Mueller, a founding member of Mission Peak Cohousing at Mission Peak Village in Fremont, provides a look into how cohousing works. “Mission Peak Village is a great big U-shaped complex with a garden in the middle, so people’s units can look out to the common spaces,” Mueller says. “We’ll even have a workspace in the common house so that people who work remotely have a quiet place to go.”
