Tree-filled urban neighborhood within sight of Mission Peak
An image of Mission Peak is embedded in the logo of the City of Fremont. Within view of the iconic summit with its stark ridges, the Centerville District lies in contrast. Some sections of the neighborhood are swathed in a canopy of pines, black walnuts, cedars, magnolias and redwoods. Shops, eateries and service centers along major thoroughfares like Fremont Boulevard and Paseo Padre Parkway draw people from nearby suburbs. The neighborhood also hosts a share of homes for people who appreciate proximity to the center of the action in this lively, green city central to the many high-tech companies of Silicon Valley. Tony Bruno, a Realtor with Coldwell Banker, has been selling real estate in the Fremont area since 1988. “I’ve been here all my life and seen a lot of changes,” says Bruno. “Like any city over 65 years old, it has it’s growing pains, but I’m still here.”
Fremont Boulevard is the main thoroughfare through Centerville.
Centerville's tree cover makes for great shady summer walks.

Spanish-influenced dwellings in various styles
Amongst its many apartment communities and businesses, Centerville District includes blocks of ranch-style homes, many built in the 1970s and 1980s to meet the demand created by the area’s big employers. Newer one- and two-story modern Craftsman homes with large front porches hug up to wide sidewalks. Large Monterey-style homes with adobe walls line Peralta Boulevard, many with balconies overlooking the wide avenue. Homes are on the market for an average of 21 days, and the average sales price over one year was $993,000. Small single-family homes start at $820,000 and range up to $2 million for a large new two-story home. Older townhomes range from $630,000 for a small unit to $1 million for a more spacious two-bedroom unit. Newer townhomes run from $1 million to $1.65 million for a model with the latest features. Condos range from $322,000 to $650,000.

Regional recreation and green space close to home
Mission Peak lies to the east of Fremont. The 3-mile hike to the summit takes about five hours roundtrip. “It’s a really popular hiking trail,” says Omar Murillo, a Bay area native and top-producing Realtor. "People get up really early to take that climb and take their picture with a great view of all of East Bay and the Peninsula.” Mission Peak draws so many people from the region that parking becomes a daily issue. In contrast to the barren peak, the city below has been designated a Tree City by the Arbor Day Foundation for 27 years. In Centerville Community Park, live oaks and tall pines shade pathways, playgrounds and tennis courts in the 20 acres surrounding the community center. That center makes space for celebrations like quinceañeras, and Diwali, a Hindu festival of lights. Dusterberry Park is another recreation spot, featuring brightly colored playground structures, murals, and basketball courts set on the location of an abandoned car dealership.
Centerville Community Park is a popular place to play cricket.
Centerville Community Park has a large green space for playing.

A Whole Foods Market anchors a shopping center that includes See’s Candies, offering chocolates and other goodies, and Boudin SF Bakery, serving sour dough sandwiches and bread bowls.
