A quiet East Bay suburb with easy access to "the City"

Located along the frontier of both Antioch and the wider East Bay region, the neighborhood of Country Hills offers a verdant, suburban refuge for Bay Area commuters. “It’s a convenient commute to the Bay Area without being too busy, so there are a lot of families that live out here,” says Brian Donnally, a Realtor with Rick Fuller Inc. and a local nonprofit director. Country Hills features scores of quiet streetscapes, and is home to Antioch’s BART station, putting San Francisco and Oakland a train ride away.

Large homes with small front yards line Country Hills' streets

Country Hills was largely developed between the late 1980s and the early 2000s, although some homes were built as recently as the early 2020s. This massive, master-planned community consists of scores of streetscapes defined by small, foliated front lawns bordering two-car driveways as well as sidewalks. “A lot of the inventory is similar. You’ll see 3 beds and 2 baths or 5 and 4 in this particular area,” says Donnally. Home styles vary from Spanish-influenced residences to Contemporary ranch-style homes and condos at The Landing at Wildflower Station. Condos can fetch between $325,000 and $480,000, while single-story and split-level homes range in value from $525,000 to $880,000.

Canalside hiking and biking

Country Hills is full of possibilities for outdoor excursions. Hillcrest Park, Nelson Ranch Park and Country Manor Park each feature vast athletic fields and playgrounds, while Country Manor Park’s paved walkways connect with the Contra Costa Canal Trail. This trail, open to hikers, bikers and equestrians, runs along a World War II-era aqueduct that has since become a habitat for beavers, fish, geese and other animals.

Surrounded by shopping and dining options

The retail corridor of Lone Tree Way and the shopping centers off Deer Valley Road are popular with diners and shoppers. “There's a significant amount of meeting spaces for neighbors and work, and shopping, movies and food spots are all super close by,” says Donnally. At the neighborhood’s northwestern end, the Crossings Shopping Center includes a Safeway supermarket, while Lone Tree Way is home to a Walmart, a Trader Joe’s and a Target. Cocina Medina Mexican Restaurant serves up Mexican staples within a festive, colorful interior. At the heart of Country Hills, Da Nang Vietnamese Restaurant specializes in pho and banh mi sandwiches.

GreatSchools: The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
