Four Seasons at Beaumont

The Real Cost of Owning at Four Seasons Beaumont

The all-in monthly cost at Four Seasons Beaumont is straightforward compared to CFD-bearing communities because there is no second line item on the tax bill. Here is what a buyer at $480,000 pays in year one, without a Prop 19 transfer:

How Prop 19 Changes the Math for California Sellers

If you're selling a California home where you've lived for more than a few years and buying Four Seasons Beaumont as your replacement primary residence, Prop 19 allows you to transfer your existing Prop 13 assessed basis to this property. This is the most important financial tool available to California 55+ buyers and almost no listing site explains how it works with actual numbers.

To claim the Prop 19 transfer, file BOE-19-B with the Riverside County Assessor within 3 years of purchasing your replacement home. Both the sold property and the replacement must be California primary residences. You must be 55 or older at the time of the sale. This is allowed up to 3 times in your lifetime.

The Three Clubhouses

Four Seasons Beaumont's three clubhouses — The Lodge, The Summit, and The Retreat — are what the community is most known for among IE active adult buyers. The scale of amenities relative to the price point is unusual: a community in this price range in Orange County would not have three separate recreation centers. This is a direct consequence of the IE's land cost advantage. Each clubhouse serves a different phase of the community and has its own pool, fitness center, and activity spaces.

Location and Elevation

Beaumont sits at approximately 2,600 feet elevation in the San Gorgonio Pass between the San Bernardino Mountains and the San Jacinto Mountains. This elevation gives Four Seasons Beaumont notably cooler summers than the desert communities 30 miles east — an important distinction for buyers comparing Beaumont to Palm Desert or Indio. Palm Springs averages summer highs around 108°F; Beaumont averages around 96°F in the same months. The elevation also means occasional winter frost and, in significant weather years, light snow — though the geography rarely produces the prolonged cold that defines mountain communities.

The location on I-10 puts Los Angeles about 75 miles west (90–120 minutes in traffic), San Diego about 90 miles southwest, and Palm Springs about 25 miles east. The direct Metrolink route from Beaumont to Los Angeles Union Station makes the community more accessible for buyers who still need periodic access to LA.

What to Verify Before Making an Offer

The absence of Mello-Roos at Four Seasons Beaumont has been stable since the community was built, but every buyer should independently confirm the specific parcel carries no CFD assessment before closing. Request the most recent property tax bill for the home you're buying and look for any line items labeled "CFD," "LLAD" (Landscaping and Lighting Assessment District), or similar special district charges. If none appear beyond the standard Prop 13 base rate and voter-approved bonds, the no-Mello-Roos fact is confirmed for that parcel.

Also confirm the current HOA amount directly with the Four Seasons Beaumont HOA — figures cited on listing sites are often 2–4 years out of date. HOA fees in California have been increasing with insurance and maintenance costs, and the figure you budget should be current.

Resale Market and Pricing

Four Seasons Beaumont is resale-only — K. Hovnanian completed the last homes in 2019. Resale prices as of 2025–2026 have generally ranged from the low $400s for smaller floor plans to the mid-$600s for larger upgraded homes. The community's well-documented no-Mello-Roos status creates consistent buyer demand because informed buyers understand the long-term cost advantage over CFD-bearing alternatives. Homes here tend to sell relatively quickly by IE standards.
