Lafayette: Happy Valley and
Upper Happy Valley
Info provided below was obtained from usually reliable
sources but is not guaranteed. There may be some inaccuracies.
Some of my favorite homes in this area are pictured below.
None of them, to my knowledge, are currently on the market.
Happy Valley and Upper Happy
Valley rank at the top of the popularity list in Lafayette for luxury
homes. This is also
the most prestigious address, comparable to Orinda's Country Club Area.
Many lots are quite large, 1 acre+/- and there are many in the
multi-million $ ranges. The area has a country, almost
"vacation" setting. Many older homes here have been torn down
and totally rebuilt. The area is mostly flat and majestic oak trees are in
abundance. It is a beautiful area. One client of mine remarked that this
looked like someplace she’d like to come to for a vacation.
Many lots are an acre or more. Builders dream of finding the “tear
down” here on a prime, flat acre lot. In many instances, a flat acre lot can be priced
near a million $ or above.
Values here quickly approach a million dollars or more, although there
are many homes that are not in the million dollar range.
