On the other side of the San Francisco Bay is where you’ll find the many cities and towns that make up beautiful Contra Costa County. If you’re in the market for great schools, warm weather and charming neighborhoods, then homes for sale in this region may just be the right choice for you.
Like most of the Bay Area, Contra Costa County is ideal, and even encouraging, for outdoor activities. The region is indisputably breathtaking from its omnipresent views of Mt. Diablo to its pristinely landscaped campuses. And residents enjoy acres of parks and miles of trails perfect for mountain biking, hiking, picnics and more.
Contra Costa County homes for sale are well known for their extravagant costs. But because of the area’s prosperity, it is equally distinguished for its education system—boasting some of the best schools in the state, both public and private. The region’s real estate options splits the county in three with East County cities of Brentwood and Discovery Bay being extraordinarily affluent; Central County’s in demand “Lamorinda” area also experiencing high costs; and West County’s still pricey, yet increasingly diverse housing market growing in popularity.
But where there’s high-priced homes for sale, there’s also high-end shopping—an endlessly appealing Contra Costa County attraction for residents and visitors alike. Broadway Plaza in Walnut Creek is a trendy destination for shopping and dining, along with centers in Danville, Downtown Pleasant Hill, and Concord. And although The City is just a BART ride away, local festivals, fare, and a range of activities are just enough to keep you home on weekends.
From small-town to urban to industrial, this area has it all. Find exactly what you’re looking for by exploring Contra Costa County homes for sale today.
