So much to do and explore in Rheem Valley

Everything is in reach in Rheem Valley. With a string of shopping and dining options, artistic venues and attractive homes, this Moraga neighborhood has so much to explore. It also offers a bit more than the more densely urban San Francisco. “It’s part of an area called Lamorinda, which are three towns that are interconnected: Lafayette, Moraga and Orinda,” says Molly Devinger, a Realtor for Compass who grew up in Orinda. “This area attracts people who started out in San Francisco, had kids and they come here because you can find a parking space.”
