Post-war homes on an urban street grid
Homes in the neighborhood sit close together on gridded, urban streets. Most of these homes were built in the Bay Area’s post-war construction boom. “These homes are older, but a lot of them have been renovated over the years. There’s been a lot of interest with investors in this area,” Davis says. The most common designs are cottages, bungalows and ranch-style homes with small front yards, private driveways and garage space. Lot sizes are between 5,000 and 6,000 square feet, so there’s less upkeep but still room for a small garden. Prices typically range between $350,000 and $600,000, putting it well below the median home price in the East Bay.
