Castro Valley is the best location in the San Francisco Bay Area as far as weather and convenience are concerned. It is also one of the most convenient locations for all of your travel plans including easy trips to San Francisco, Silicon Valley, Napa or Sonoma Wine Tours or any number of Theme Parks in the area. You can walk to grocery stores, cafes, restaurants, theater, library, etc. We are also very close to shopping areas, parks, theme parks, hiking trails, outlet malls, groceries stores, Levi's & ATT stadiums and the Oracle & HP arenas and easy freeway access to freeways 580, 880 & 238. You can get anywhere in the Bay Area quickly. Enjoy the charm and comfort of this recently remolded yet it still maintains its older charm home. We really enjoy living in Castro Valley because it offers many advantages over any of the big cities (San Francisco, San Jose & Oakland) in the Bay area. Here's why. San Francisco is often clouded over in a thick fog. Castro Valley enjoys far more clear skies and warm sunshine. Parking is a major problem at most San Francisco properties. It's never a problem at Crescent Avenue. Castro Valley is very safe and clean unlike Oakland for example. Castro Valley has small town feel and everything is within a walking distance unlike San Jose vastness and nondescript character with its many office buildings and warehouses. If you would look at a map you will find that we are in the center of all of the sightseeing activities and freeway access is much easier from our location than fighting the bridges of San Francisco. We are less than a mile from 580 freeway access so you can still drive to near by the cities of San Francisco, Oakland, Palo Alto and San Jose or take the train (BART) which is a walking distance from our home, so drive/walk and enjoy the sights and attractions that the city of San Francisco and other cities in the bay area offer. Most people spend a day or tow checking the City and the rest of the time they visit places like Napa Valley, Sonoma Valley, Monterey, Carmel, Santa Cruz, San Jose, Livermore outlet mall, Pleasanton or even Yosemite National Park and Lake Tahoe. If your goal is to see the entire San Francisco Bay Area, Castro Valley village is the place to be.
