The Northgate Area Real Estate Experts

The Torrey Team has sold between 500 and one thousand Northgate homes to satisfied customers since 1977. While we have moved many people out of the area due to job transfers, we have also moved many of the same folks back. Let us show and tell you why we chose to raise our families here and why we love it so much:

The Northgate area of Walnut Creek is located at the eastern border of the city in the Mt. Diablo foothills. It is named for the northern entry into Mt. Diablo State Park. The area is characterized generally by homeowners who are interested in good schools, safe neighborhoods, and family values. Most of the homes were built in the 1950s, 60s and 70s by Scott and Ball, Permabuilt, Falender, and Eichler. Harold Smith followed by Standard Pacific built the upscale Rancho Paraiso development in the 1990s. The Northgate area gets more than 300 days a year of sunshine with an average yearly temperature of 60 degrees. Residents love the warm days and cool evenings. People from all over the world have been attracted by the life-style and the great locale near shopping, commute routes, BART, excellent schools, and great outdoor activities. Hiking, Biking, Heather Farms Park and Pool, Boundary Oaks Golf, Valley Vista Tennis Clubs and much more are minutes from your door.
