Homes in Fairway Park boast stunning views of the surrounding hills.
Suburban living with hillside views
Despite its name, Fairway Park is actually closer to a mountain town than a golf club community — although there’s plenty of excitement to be found at the local course. Sitting just 5 miles from downtown Hayward and less than 15 miles from the Oakland International Airport, this small East Bay community offers a suburban experience with the rugged allure of the undeveloped Hayward Hills just over the horizon. “Fairway Park mostly attracts young professionals and families because it’s close to decent public schools, area regional parks and Cal State East Bay,” says Rich Fleming, a Realtor with Realty ONE Group Future and a longtime resident of the Bay Area. “But if you’re into historic homes or being right near a lot of services, this probably isn’t the neighborhood for you.”
Midcentury architecture reigns supreme here, and although the neighborhood does provide proximity to major highways and public transportation, shopping and dining options are a bit scarce this close to the hills. And like many other East Bay communities, there’s an ever-present threat of earthquakes along the Hayward Fault Zone. Still, Fairway Park has become an attractive spot for those seeking suburban comfort with a rural backdrop.
More than 5,000 acres of wilderness to explore
Covering more than 5,800 acres, the adjoining Garin and Dry Creek Pioneer Regional Parks provide endless opportunities for outdoor recreation steps away from Fairway Park’s homes. Hikers, bikers and equestrians enjoy exploring more than 35 miles of rugged trails, although adventurers should keep an eye out for area closures after large storms — after being pummeled by rain in 2023, the park’s Dry Creek Garden is closed until the 2025 season, and a few popular trails are undergoing repairs. In September, the community gathers to celebrate the region’s history with the Garin Apple Festival, paying homage to the park’s former orchards.
Mission Hills of Hayward Golf Course and Driving Range has been a fixture of the community since 1999, offering a 9-hole layout bordered by homes. Resident duffers will receive a 10% discount on green fees, while anyone can enjoy the on-site café. Twin Bridges Park sits right next door, offering space for playdates, basketball practice and shady picnics. Once home to the local elementary school, Bidwell Park is set to receive a huge makeover in 2025, with plans for a central community center well underway. Until then, kids can sign up for private swim lessons at Treeview Swim Club.
