The tree lined streets and lovely ranch homes and colonials of Birdland are close to all of Pleasanton’s wonderful shopping, dining and schools, making it a perfect place for families.

Dave Rusconi and his wife Sandra moved to Birdland a few years ago from the Peninsula. The Rusconis have three school-aged children and were originally attracted to Pleasanton because of the schools. Upon arriving to the city, they soon became also fond of the “tightknit” community within Birdland, they said. “Without question, everyone wants to preserve the community feel and there is a great sense of interaction while not being overbearing,” Rusconi said.

Birdland, appropriately titled for its streets named after bird species, is nestled in a centralized area of Pleasanton bordered by Valley Avenue to the south, Santa Rita Road to the east, Hopyard Road to the west and the Ken Mercer Pleasanton Sports Park to the north. The tree-lined streets of Birdland consist mostly of single-story ranch homes and two-story colonials. Historically, the area was used as farmland and was developed into the suburban haven that exists today when the first Birdland

homes were built on the land in 1963.

“We love that there’s 12 years of schools within walking distance and great food shopping at Gene’s Fine Foods or downtown,” Rusconi said.

Residents of Birdland don’t need to travel far from home to run errands, shop or grab a bite to eat. Mission Plaza, which includes several casual dining restaurants, a day spa and a onestop shop for packing and shipping, is situated near Birdland, as well as Amador Center, which offers a Safeway grocery store, pharmacy, dry cleaners and several eateries.

Walnut Grove Elementary School, Harvest Park Middle School and Amador Valley High School are the three schools within walking distance of Birdland. Families with school-aged children can enjoy the convenience of education and recreation significantly close to home.

Also in Birdland, Woodthrush Park is a great place to take the family dog for a walk or play a game of catch with neighborhood friends. Ken Mercer Pleasanton Sports Park is also near Birdland and offers a skateboard park, soccer fields, baseball diamonds, tot play area and spaces for picnicking among other amenities.
