A Brief Background on Eichlers in Concord and Walnut Creek
Eichler homes were built between the 1950s and early 1970s by developer Joseph Eichler. These homes are known for their post-and-beam construction, floor-to-ceiling glass, radiant heating, and strong connection to the outdoors. They’ve become some of the most recognizable examples of California mid-century modern design and the inventory is limited.
Concord Eichler Neighborhoods (about 175 homes)
- Rancho del Diablo – Phoenix St, Sacramento St, Wilson Ln, Mendocino St
- Rancho de los Santos – West St, Salem St, Santa Fe Ct, Houston Ct
- Parkwood Estates – Gainsborough Dr, Barrington Dr, Merridan Dr, Lancashire Dr
These early 1960s tracts offer larger lots and easy access to BART and downtown Concord.
Walnut Creek Eichler Neighborhoods (about 375+ homes)
- Rancho San Miguel – Los Cerros Ave, Los Banos Ave, San Benito Dr, San Carlos Dr, Santa Fe Dr
- Northgate (“Super Eichlers”) – Clyde Dr, Wiget Ln
“Super Eichlers” were a later, larger model built in the late 1960s. They typically feature higher ceilings, more square footage, atriums, and more dramatic rooflines.
