ARTESIA, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–City Ventures, California’s leading builder of solar-powered, ecologically responsible homes, recently announced that the first business within the ground-level commercial space at Eginhouse will open in 2026. Vivot Craft Café, a popular coffee shop in Orange County, will begin serving their signature all-natural and organic matchas, teas, and coffee, all crafted with house-made organic syrups & fruit purees, next year in Arteisa–growing the list of neighborhood perks and continuing to elevate the homeownership experience for residents of Eginhouse.
“We’re thrilled to welcome Vivot Craft Café to Eginhouse’s retail lineup,” said Natasha Zabaneh, President of City Ventures. “Having a high-quality, locally owned coffee shop just steps from home is the ultimate convenience for homeowners—it gives them that sought-after neighborhood feeling that really enhances daily life. Imagine greeting neighbors while grabbing your coffee on the way to work or enjoying a latte and a book on a slow Sunday morning. There’s something special about living close to walkable amenities, and Vivot Craft Café is going to be a local favorite.”
Renowned for its handcrafted beverages and thoughtfully curated menu, Vivot Craft Café is no stranger to Orange County, thanks to two thriving locations in Fullerton and Mission Viejo—and a fast-growing local following. “We’re very excited Vivot Craft Café chose Eginhouse as their third location,” said Kelly Nguyen, Vice President of Sales for City Ventures. “As Artesia continues to undergo significant growth and revitalization, Eginhouse’s unique pocket within the city embodies the kind of community we love—a close-knit neighborhood where people are proud to live and work.”
Earlier this month, Eginhouse was also awarded “Best Infill Community” at the 2025 Building Industry Association of Southern California MAME Awards. Located within the boundaries of the renowned ABC Unified School District, Eginhouse features 59 modern, three-story townhomes––including 22 live/work units––plus 4,544 square feet of ground-floor commercial space, with Vivot Craft Café among the first tenants to open their doors.
“Eginhouse is an incredibly popular neighborhood because it offers a one-of-a-kind lifestyle that checks off every box,” said Natasha Zabaneh, President of City Ventures. “Buyers love the balance of small-town vibes and big-city conveniences, with easy access to parks and green spaces, a top-rated public school system, public transit options, shopping, and freeways. Cerritos College is also just a short distance away.”
At Eginhouse, the three bright, spacious floorplans range from approximately 1,342 to 1,899 square feet with three bedrooms and up to three-and-a-half baths. Additional spaces include designated in-home live/work space, plus dens and home offices. Smart technologies—like owned solar panels, learning thermostats, water-saving fixtures, dual-glazed windows, and all-electric appliances—are built into every home, helping reduce energy, lower costs, and enhance everyday comfort. Thoughtfully designed kitchens prioritize style and functionality with popular finishes like quartz or granite countertops, flat-panel cabinets with soft-closing drawers and doors, LG stainless-steel appliances, and water filtration systems conveniently located at the kitchen sink. Attached two-car garages are standard, along with keyless entry.
“It’s exciting to be part of Artesia’s ongoing renaissance and redevelopment,” said Zabaneh. “With retail additions like Vivot Craft Café at Eginhouse, we’re not just building homes—we’re creating opportunities for people to live, work, and thrive in a thoughtfully planned, well-rounded community.”
Prices at Eginhouse start at the low $700,000s. With Redfin reporting a median sales price of $700,000 for resale townhomes in Artesia during October, buyers could enjoy the benefits of new construction, comprehensive warranties plus owned solar panels at a similar price point.
