Upper-end suburban living next to Livermore’s largest employer

Coventry’s contemporary homes, leafy streets and community parks are the backbone of this well-rounded Livermore neighborhood. The neighborhood sits at the eastern edge of the city, right beside Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, a large, federally funded lab and major area employer. “Driving through Coventry, it feels luxurious. The homes are large, the lots are large, and they were built more recently than the homes in west Livermore,” says Realtor Aiden Kim of Compass Realty, who lives in neighboring Pleasanton. “There are a lot of laboratory employees who live in the neighborhood. You could walk to work.”

Spacious contemporary homes on sprawling 9,000-square-foot lots

The neighborhood’s homes were built in the late 1990s with large lots that typically top 9,000 square feet. Its homes are also spacious — with high ceilings, open floorplans and three-car garages. Many homes also feature backyard swimming pools where residents can cool off during those sizzling East Bay summers. The streets are wide, quiet and lined with trees and well-maintained sidewalks. Prices typically range from $1.4 million to $1.8 million, slightly higher than the city’s median home prices. “It’s more affordable than if you were to get a comparable house in Dublin or Pleasanton, and that seems to be attracting a younger generation to the area,” Kim says.

Most homes in Coventry have 4 or more bedrooms that sit on about half-acre lots.

Residents walk to leafy community parks

Community parks are close by in Coventry. Residents can head out the front door and walk to Tex Spruiell Park and Big Trees Park in a few minutes. Both parks feature playgrounds, open space and plenty of tall, leafy trees. Walkers and joggers can extend their daily route by hopping on a short trail that winds alongside Arroyo Seco creek. Further south, there are sprawling regional parks like Sycamore Grove and Lake Del Valle, both of which feature labyrinthine walking trails etched into the meadows, forests, hills and valleys of the East Bay countryside.

Neighborhood is at an elevated risk for wildfires

Coventry is at an elevated risk for wildfires because of its proximity to the East Bay countryside. Most recently, in June 2024, a large wildfire occurred east of the National Laboratory that burned more than 14,000 acres and caused evacuations throughout the area.
