About This Home
As of July 2026Tucked away at the end of a quiet court in the hills of Benicia, 274 James Ct offers the perfect blend of privacy, comfort, and breathtaking views. Thoughtfully designed living spaces are filled with natural light, while expansive windows and outdoor areas showcase the scenic surroundings at every turn. This home delivers the lifestyle Benicia is known for — peaceful, charming, and connected to nature, all while remaining close to downtown shops, dining, waterfront trails, and commuter access. A bright sunroom, covered patio, dedicated garden space, and enclosed chicken coop complete the outdoor experience. Professional Photography Thursday 6/4
