Villagio in Cupertino
We visited the Villagio complex recently in Cupertino. Information about the units can be found here:
http://www.villagiocupertino.com/
The model we saw was very nice. It was 2 stories of living space, with a garage on an additional bottom floor by itself. The garage is a truly a "garage in a garage," as there are many units in the complex that share a common garage and the garage door for the model was literally in the garage. Lots of protection, I guess.
So, the unit had a great layout, but something I noticed is that it lacked light, especially on the first floor where there was just one window. Also, unlike other townhouses I've seen, this townhouse had units on both sides and two levels of units above it which is less nice than the ones that share fewer walls.
The biggest draw of this place was the location. Right in the heart of Cupertino by Apple and other great companies. The neighborhood was fantastic.
The sales people at Villagio left a lot to be desired. They were not very motivated to show the model units (they sent us over to the model that was locked without coming with us) and there was some rudeness when we tried to discuss different pricing options. But, you can't judge a place you are going to live on the sales agents they send to sell them. Or can you? :)

Classic Communities at Evandale
My husband and I visisted Class Communities at Evandale today. It is a site with new townhomes and single family homes in Mountain View, right off of the 101. I was originally worried about the location, but I have to say, the townhouse model was quite nice and the price seemed very reasonable.
The model was 3 stories, with 3 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms. The bedrooms were on the smaller size, but there are 3 which is great! The best part was the 2nd story which contained a living room and huge kitchen area, with an island in the middle. The living room had 16 foot cielings and tons of light. Much more light than I've seen at other complexes with units selling for similar prices (mid 700's). The units were very cute on the oustide too. There is also a little park in the middle of the complex which is quite nice.
