With over 10,000 homes built across Fresno, Clovis, and Madera, McCaffrey Homes knows that true California living is about flow, light, and connection to the outdoors. For three generations, we’ve designed homes with seamless, sunlit spaces that bring the outside in. Here’s how we make fresh air and open space a natural part of everyday life with our four new home collections at Tesoro Viejo, the master planned community in Madera, Central California.
The Perks of Indoor/Outdoor Living
Aesthetics are important, but indoor/outdoor living also brings real lifestyle benefits. These features can improve everything from health and energy savings to how you entertain and unwind.
Our homes are known for an abundance of natural light with oversized windows and large sliding glass door as shown in the Blossom model at our Poppy collection.
Here are the indoor/outdoor features that make everyday life better:
- More Natural Light and Fresh Air: Large windows and sliding glass doors bring the sunshine and fresh breezes, making your home feel open and refreshing.
- Less Stress, More Energy: Spending time outside is proven to boost mood, reduce stress, and help you feel more energized every day.
- Better for Your Wallet: Strategically placed windows and outdoor living areas, you can rely less on artificial cooling, heating, and electricity, cutting down on energy costs.
- Perfect for Hosting: An open flow from kitchen to patio makes gatherings feel natural, relaxed, and easy.
- Extra Living Space Without Extra Cost: A California Room or covered patio expands your home’s square footage without a pricey remodel.
What is a California Room?
A backyard is nice. A covered patio gives you shade. But a California Room? Think of it as indoor/outdoor living taken to the next level. A California Room is a seamless extension of the home’s great room or dining area, open to the outdoors. It’s a space designed for true indoor/outdoor flow, where you can lounge, dine, or entertain in comfort, year-round.

Unlike a standard covered patio, a California Room is fully integrated into the home’s architecture, often featuring ceiling fans, fireplaces, or large sliding glass doors that completely open up the space.

Indoor/Outdoor Living in Every Detail
Our homes are built to extend your living space beyond four walls. The floor plans at our Ivy collection feature California Rooms so that you can enjoy the outdoors in total comfort all year long.
Our Savanna collection makes indoor/outdoor living effortless with easy access to covered patios and outdoor spaces as shown in Meadow model.
Here are other ways we create a seamless connection between the inside and out:
- Expansive Great Rooms that open to outdoor living areas with large sliding glass doors
- Multiple covered outdoor spaces, from entry to side courtyards to backyard covered patios and extended dining areas.
- Oversized windows that frame scenic views and flood the interiors with natural light.
- Flexible layouts that offer optional outdoor fireplaces, extended patios, and multi-use entertaining spaces.
Our goal is to make every moment in a McCaffrey home (whether spent inside or out) feel open, connected, and inviting.
