Your Cameron Park Real Estate Expert

I’m Mela Fratarcangeli, a top producer with the Fratarcangeli Realty Group and more than forty years of combined team experience. Over 600 successful closings have taught me which upgrades matter, which don’t, and how to spotlight the features buyers pay extra for—think usable acreage, hangar garages, and lake-trail access.

Clients choose me for data-driven pricing, steady communication, and negotiation skills honed across bull and bear markets. Chairman’s Circle honors and an EDCAR lifetime membership back that track record, but what matters most is the clarity you’ll feel from our first consult to final closing.

Cameron Park Real Estate Market Pulse

    • Median Sold Price: $644,000
    • Average Days on Market (DOM): 46 days
    • Price Appreciation: -0.4 % YoY

Slight price softening and a mid-range DOM tell us buyers are selective - homes with fresh interiors and outdoor living space still capture quick offers, while dated properties face more negotiation. Sellers who prep wisely and list at market-smart numbers see the best traction, and buyers ready with solid financing gain leverage on listings lingering past the first month.

Living in Cameron Park

Mornings often start with coffee from Burke Junction before a short commute down Highway 50 - easy, right? Afternoons can shift to paddle-boarding on Cameron Park Lake or a quick nine at the local golf club without leaving town.

Transit ties are solid: El Dorado Transit buses loop through neighborhoods and connect to regional jobs in Folsom and Sacramento, while Sacramento International Airport sits just over thirty miles away for farther adventures. Want a sky-high commute? Some residents taxi from their backyard hangars in Airpark Estates straight to the runway.

That blend of elbow-room lots, recreation, and commuter access underpins steady property values and keeps rental demand firm - investors notice the same upside locals enjoy.

Ask around and you’ll hear a common theme: community events at the Cameron Park Community District turn neighbors into friends, making the area feel smaller - in the best way.

Cameron Park Local Highlights & Attractions

    • Cameron Park Lake – A favorite for sunset laps on the paved loop, summer concerts on the green, and Fourth-of-July fireworks that draw half the town. Anglers stake out the fishing dock early for bass and bluegill.

    • Cameron Park Community District – Home base for youth soccer, adult softball, and the splash pool at Christa McAuliffe Park. Their Friday food-truck nights feel more block party than civic event.

    • Burke Junction – Western facades hide local staples like Kobe Sushi, daily pour-overs at Caffé Santoro, and late-night laughs at The Stage comedy club. The vintage caboose out front doubles as a selfie spot.

    • Cameron Park Airpark Estates – Where streets double as taxiways and you’ll spot neighbors rolling garage doors to reveal Cessnas instead of SUVs. Fly-ins for brunch are common on clear Saturdays.

    • Quick hop to the Sierra Nevada – Trailheads around Jenkinson Lake sit 40 minutes up the hill, and winter snow runs at Sierra-at-Tahoe are under an hour when Highway 50 cooperates.

    • Wally’s Pizza Bar – Known for its stone-fired crust and Wednesday trivia packed with locals; the patio stays lively thanks to live acoustic sets.

    • Golfing options – The private Cameron Park Country Club offers a tight, tree-lined 18, while public rounds at nearby Bass Lake Golf Course give beginners room to miss a fairway or two.

Cameron Park Real Estate: Buyer FAQs

What are the property taxes like in Cameron Park?

The median effective property tax rate in El Dorado County is about 1.07%. That’s built on a 1% base rate plus any voter-approved bonds. Buyers should factor this into monthly costs alongside mortgage and insurance.

What types of homes are most common in the area?

Single-family homes dominate, many with ranch-style designs from the 1970s and 80s. Larger lots are common, though you’ll also see modern builds, low-maintenance townhomes, and the unique fly-in lifestyle of Airpark Estates.

How competitive is the housing market for buyers?

It’s a balanced market right now. Homes average about 46 days before going under contract, so while there’s breathing room, desirable properties still draw quick offers. Serious buyers should be ready with financing in place.

Are there any unique neighborhoods I should know about?

Yes—beyond the Airpark Estates, southeast Cameron Park tends to be in higher demand for its larger homes and proximity to amenities. More budget-friendly choices can often be found in the northeast. Buyers compare these options closely when deciding where to land.
