Spacious homes by protected land on the outskirts of San Jose
Richmond Ranch is a quiet place to live, and thanks to local conservation efforts it will stay that way. This neighborhood of spacious, three-to-four-bedroom homes sits at the base of the Diablo Range foothills next to 3,600 acres of undeveloped land. “It’s designated open space owned by the Richmond family, which borders the Meadowlands,” says Kerry Sexton, Compass real estate agent who has worked in San Jose for more than 16 years. Edmund Richmond, co-founder of the Richmond-Chase Company, first purchased the land, and his family used it as a cattle ranch for about a century. Going forward, parts of the land along San Felipe Road will be devoted to hiking trails and outdoor recreation, and the rest will be dedicated to protecting rare wildlife species, like the bay heckerspot butterfly.
Richmond Ranch offers serene living with stunning Diablo Range foothill views.
Richmond Ranch's conservation ensures quiet, undisturbed living for generations.
