Real Estate Modesto - fleur de Ville Gated Community Amenities


Photos taken in the Fleur de Ville gated community in Modesto California. The neighborhood has a nice playground, lots of trees, private tennis courts, basket ball court, etc.

These pictures were taken in the process of conducting a fourth grade science project (for my fourth grader) which involved playing baseball...

It was a nice day in Fall 2007. With a nice neighborhood park, we can run freely on the playground, play baseball, tennis ball, basket ball, bicycling, roller blading, or ride the scooter.

More photos will be added to the above website. This is a trial version of real estate Modesto neighborhood photos.
