Private Park @ Hidden PinesHidden Pines is a lovely little gated community located in northwest Santa Maria. It boasts a private park and streets, and borders the Santa Maria Riverbed walking trail. The homes were built approximately 15 years ago and feature tile roofs and 2 car garages. The development is surrounded by other popular developments, Cherry Blossom Ranch, Essex at Willow Creek, and the gated community of Regency Estates. Hidden Pines offers convenient access to Highway 101 and is walking distance to Presiker Park. The association fee is about $65 – $75 per month. The last resale I found for the development was a bank owned 3 bedroom, 2 bath, 1400 square foot home which sold for $200,000 on January 30, 2009.

The first half of 2010 has been pretty dramatic with the $8000 federal tax credit extension and the introuction of the $10,000 California new home and first time home buyer credit. Buyers were on a roller coaster with the first two months having moderate activity, then a blaze of acvtivity in March and April followed by low activity in May and June. Overall sales for the 6 month period were high with 553 properties being sold in the Santa Maria Orcutt area.
