Suburban quietude in west Redding close to essentials and downtown
In west Redding, the Ridgeview neighborhood offers easy access to downtown Redding and the Sacramento River — from within a quiet residential enclave where sidewalks lead to a community park and a paved nature trail. Many homes enjoy the scenic backdrop of an open wilderness area in that’s almost as large as the entire residential footprint. Placer Street and Buenaventura Boulevard offer quick connection to major highways, so it’s easy to reach all of Redding and come home to suburban serenity.
Mary Lake Park is the center of the neighborhood and brings the community together.
Ridgeview is a neighborhood located 10 minutes from Downtown Redding.

Picnic and play at Ridgeview Park, bike Blue Gravel Mine Trail
Tucked between homes in northern Ridgeview, the 6-acre Ridgeview Park is a well-maintained greenspace with two large lawns. Friends meet here for pickup basketball, residents stroll paved circular walkways and kids enjoy the playground. Hikers and bikers hit the paved Blue Gravel Mine Trail that parallels Buenaventura Boulevard along the northeast edge of Ridgeview. It’s far enough away from Buenaventura to feel like a trek in the woodlands and among wildflowers in the spring. The trail leads past a small canyon with a shallow creek and the historic Blue Gravel Mine — a name originating from the bluish gravel created by gold mining. Just 3 miles north of Ridgeview, the Sacramento River Trail opens up at the South Diestelhorst Bridge Trailhead.
Locals of Ridgeview often take morning walks along the perimeter of Mary Lake Park.
Cumberland Park was recently renovated and the kids in Ridgeview love the new changes.

Well-kept homes built from the 1960s through the 1990s
Remodeled single-level and larger two-story homes built near the neighborhood park in the 1960s and 1970s range from $300,000 to $550,000. In the rest of Ridgeview, multigable stucco homes built in the 1980s through the 1990s vary from $400,000 to $600,000. Creatively landscaped yards with flowering bushes and tall cypress trees show pride of ownership, and backyard pools are popular for cooling off in the Redding heat. “These are pretty sought-after homes in the West Redding area,” says Tanya Mewhirter, Redding native and broker with the Shasta Realty Group since 2011. “They're all considered well-kept, and many of them were built in the late 1990s so they're more contemporary.” Cumberland Drive meets Teton Drive in the heart of Ridgeview, creating the only neighborhood throughway, and most streets that branch off this central corridor end in cul-de-sacs.
Some homes in Ridgeview were built in the '80s and '90s.
Ridgeview has many mature trees throughout the neighborhood.
