A busy corner in Antelope could be in for a major change, with USA Properties Fund Inc. proposing roughly 276 apartments at the intersection of Don Julio Boulevard and Antelope Road in unincorporated Sacramento County. The plan would drop hundreds of affordable units next to a recent Lennar-built subdivision in the Barrett Ranch neighborhood, on a site that already carries entitlements tied to a multifamily proposal planners reviewed in recent years.
What The Developer Is Proposing
As reported by the Sacramento Business Journal, Roseville-based USA Properties Fund has surfaced renderings and plans for a roughly 276-unit affordable multifamily community at the Don Julio and Antelope Road site. The outlet notes the project would sit directly beside the newer Lennar subdivision and shows early concepts for interior courtyards, a community building and on-site parking.
Permit History And Approvals
County records list the property as the "Apartments at Barrett Ranch" project, Control No. PLNP2022-00263, processed under a Minor Use Permit and major design review for 276 units on about 10.9 acres, with a final action recorded on the application in April 2024. The project's Notice of Determination filed on CEQAnet spells out the details, including parcel numbers and a unit mix of 143 studio and one-bedroom apartments and 133 two- and three-bedroom apartments, for a total of 276 units. CEQAnet confirms those records.
Developer Track Record And Regional Context
USA Properties Fund is a Roseville-based affordable-housing developer and property manager with a sizable regional portfolio. The company notes on its site that it completed more affordable apartments than any other California-based developer in 2025, underscoring its focus on large-scale housing production. The firm has been active across Sacramento and nearby counties and recently secured a favorable settlement in Placer County that cleared the way for construction of the Hope Way Apartments, according to a press release from Holland & Knight. USA Properties Fund provides additional background on the company's recent work.
Next Steps And Local Reaction
County documents show the Barrett Ranch application drew public comment during the entitlement process, including a packet of opposition, although staff ultimately recorded final action in April 2024. If USA Properties Fund chooses to advance the project, the developer still has to satisfy remaining conditions of approval and secure building permits before any construction can start, and no public construction schedule has been released. For now, neighbors and local officials are left to watch whether this long-discussed multifamily project finally makes the jump from paper plan to active construction site.
