Traditional East Bay suburban community next to downtown Concord

Holbrook Heights is a family-friendly East Bay neighborhood in Concord, located about 30 miles from San Francisco. The neighborhood has many traditional suburban qualities, but also has a unique side with access to a community pool and a small amusement park for young kids. “It’s a fantastic place with a lot of young families moving in,” says Josh Haller, a Realtor with Brickhouse Real Estate Partners with almost 20 years of experience. “People are staying in the neighborhood these days. It used to be that people would move in, spruce the house up a bit and move away a couple of years later. The higher interest rates have put a stop to that.” Along with its suburban allure, the neighborhood also benefits from being just a few miles from downtown Concord. “When you factor in the affordability, this neighborhood is probably the nicest with proximity to downtown Concord,” Haller says.

Mixed housing styles and an HOA pool

The neighborhood’s wide, tree-lined streetscapes feature a variety of housing styles. Common architectural designs include bungalows, ranch-styles and traditional homes. One of the highlights of the neighborhood is the access to a pool. For just a couple hundred dollars a year in HOA fees, residents can have access to the Holbrook Heights Community Pool. “It’s one of the nicer HOA pools in Concord,” says Jeff Goyert, a Realtor with Nor Cal Real Estate Services, whose office is only minutes from the neighborhood. “In that area, there’s also a playground, and you can rent out the clubhouse for a large gathering or cookout.” Prices range from $600,000 to $850,000, with homes primarily built between the 1940s and ‘60s.
Holbrook Heights Pool offers a serene space for relaxation and swimming all summer long.

Longstanding neighborhood eatery and downtown dining

Digger’s Diner is a popular Concord eatery serving classic American fare. The restaurant’s name interestingly comes from the general manager, who once worked as a grave digger. Other options for local dining can be found less than a few miles away in Downtown Concord. Here, Luna Restaurant serves Italian-style dishes, while next door is Lima, known for Californian-Peruvian food with ample indoor and outdoor seating. There is a Safeway a few miles west for groceries, and the Sunvalley Shopping Center is about three miles south with big box stores like Macy’s and Nordstrom Rack.
