Upscale suburban living in the outskirts of the East Bay
Surrounded by golf courses and country clubs, Deer Ridge/Marsh Creek is a suburban East Bay community where residents are ensconced by luxury living, new homes, highly rated schools and the green foothills of the Mount Diablo Mountain range. “I’ve probably sold more homes than anyone in Deer Ridge, and I can say without a doubt that schools are the number one reason people are moving here,” says Realtor Jeff Kenney of JDK & Associates Realty, who lives in Deer Ridge. The neighborhood is situated at the southern edge of Brentwood, bordered by wide-open green space on one side and sprawling cherry orchards and farmland on the other. It’s about 55 miles from San Francisco and 74 miles from Sacramento.
