SERRANO ASSOCIATES

In 1962, Greenhaven - the pride of the late Harold Parker (who founded Parker Development Company in May 1956) - won the National Association of Homebuilders' award for the country's best-planned community. It was the first master-planned community in the State Capitol region, and the first built around a man-made lake... In 1997, Parker Development Company moved further up Highway 50 and created Serrano, a community nestled in the Sierra Foothills and anchored by a private country club and golf course. Soon after inception, Serrano earned the same best-planned community award as Greenhaven in the 1960s. This gated, master-planned community was chosen over nearly 800 other contenders across the nation for the award. Serrano was designed as a tribute to its setting, which encompasses some of Northern California's most beautiful landscapes and vistas.
