What Somis Housing Means for Your Cabinets
Somis is unincorporated agricultural country where the median home value runs near $1.6 million and properties commonly sit on acreage, from a few acres up to 40-acre working ranches. In practice houses here are frequently ranch homes and estates on citrus and avocado land, often extended or remodeled several times, with guest houses, barns and equestrian facilities on the same parcel.
That range matters because the right cabinet answer is not the same in
each of them. A house whose boxes are solid and whose doors are simply dated
wants refacing or refinishing. A house whose particleboard boxes have taken
water under the sink wants replacement. We look at what you already have
before recommending anything, which is why the estimate itemizes box
construction, doors, finish and hardware as separate lines rather than
presenting one number.
Somis is inland rolling hills a few miles back from the coast, warmer and drier than Camarillo but still catching some morning marine influence. Salt corrosion is not the governing concern at this distance from the water, so that part of the budget goes into box material, hardware grade and a catalyzed finish instead.
We cover Solano Verde, the Sand Canyon Road properties and the Los Angeles Avenue ranches and the surrounding areas.
