Pinewood Lake Dr, Bakersfield

This is one of those stand out places that you'll find in many cities. Typical of the non-boxed approach of the newer estates, the layout here is on a smaller, tighter scale and very unusual in the immediate surrounds. Heavily wooded, the houses here are set into a very pretty neighborhood. The street itself can feel quite narrow at times. A combination of street parking and the houses being built quite close to the kerb are the primary reasons behind that. This is a gated community but there's been a couple of occassions when the gates have been wide open and the invitation there to peek at how the other half live ;)
