Tranquil bedroom community 50 miles from San Francisco
One-and-a-half miles from downtown Oakley, South Oakley is a bedroom community with numerous green spaces, recreational options and nearby shopping opportunities. “The South Oakley community was built with the idea that people would want to interact and go to a park or sporting activity. They have Little League, soccer leagues and dog parks. And it’s one of the last places in the Bay Area where people can get homes from the 2000s with a lot of bang for their buck,” says Jeff Kenney, a Realtor with JDK & Associates Realty with a decade of experience. “Lots of people live here and work in San Jose, Fremont and Oakland.”

Staying close to nature with nearly a dozen parks
South Oakley is filled with green spaces, and Creekside Park has an array of activities to try. There’s a skatepark with rails and ramps, a soccer field and bocce ball courts. A community garden occupies one corner with over two dozen plots for growing flowers, produce and more. A BMX track runs along one side, over the Mike Carlson Bridge and connects to the multi-use Marsh Creek Regional Trail. Nunn-Wilson Family Park is home to a large playground, a splash pad and a baseball diamond. It also has the Koda Dog Park. This manicured area contains agility equipment that encourages dogs to socialize and play. The Delta De Anza Regional Trail runs just above the neighborhood, following the path of the Contra Costa Canal. It also parallels the journey of early Spanish explorers who visited the region in the 1700s. The paved multi-use pathway is popular with people wanting a quiet stroll or a quick bike ride.
