Location is what brought Shelly and Ritesh Jha to Pleasanton’s Bridle Creek / Sycamore Heights neighborhood. The couple moved to Pleasanton because, according to Shelly, “it is family-friendly with a small town feel, but within distance of so many things to do.”

“Just driving through the neighborhood, we fell in love,” Shelly Jha said of the couple’s first excursion to Pleasanton looking for a home. “The homes look so majestic and the neighborhood is so peaceful.”

Situated on the south side of Pleasanton, Bridle Creek and Sycamore Heights located in what used to be Pleasanton’s ranch and rural area. The neighborhood is full of luxury homes and wellspaced out for plenty of privacy for each home. Bridle Creek was built by Greenbriar Homes between 2000 and 2003, with 3,200- to 4,450-square-foot homes and lots up to half an acre. Sycamore Heights was started in 2004 by Summerhill Development, and boasts homes of 3,000 to 5,000 square feet and up to half-acre lots. The Sycamore Creek walking path within the community is available for beautiful strolls. One of the favorite attractions, especially for children, is the proximity to Mission Hills Park, home to giant slide which is being renovated, swings, two playgrounds, and a huge amount of space to play and enjoy the outdoors. For other types of play, Castlewood Country Club and Callippe Preserve Golf Course are less than 10 minutes away, and Stoneridge Mall is a quick trip. “If you need a sizable home on a generous lot in a premium location, look no further than Bridle Creek and adjacent Sycamore Heights,” said Realtor Blaise Lofland. “These relatively newer neighborhoods have well designed and built executive homes.”

Bridle Creek and Sycamore Heights neighborhoods provide “views of Pleasanton Ridge, and they’re only a five-minute drive from the Castlewood Country Club,” Lofland continued.

Award-winning schools are within walking distance, including Hearst Elementary and Pleasanton Middle schools. Teens living in the community go to Foothill High School.

“The location is one of the best things about the neighborhood,” Jha said. “Both my husband and I commute to work and the freeway access is very convenient.”

“The neighborhood feels secluded, but manages to be convenient to everything, including a plethora of shopping options,” Jha continued. “Oak Hills Shopping Center with Raley’s supermarket is minutes away, making it so convenient for families.”

The neighborhoods are also within walking distance of Pleasanton’s historic downtown, full of shopping, dining and entertainment choices. “Bridle Creek and Sycamore Heights are conveniently located just south of Downtown Pleasanton and all that Main Street has to offer,” Lofland said.
