about this

Neighborhood

Nestled among tree-lined hills with views of the San Francisco Bay and just miles from the shoreline, El Cerrito is a truly picturesque, and conveniently located for commuters and adventurers alike!

The Saint Jerome's area is particularly attractive, with easy access to the quaint Fairmount Avenue shops and amenities, as well as the Kensington Circle, which features a Sunday farmer's market, and the prized trifecta of the Circus Pub, Benchmark Pizzeria and Semifreddi's bakery.  Bustling Solano Avenue is also close at hand.

El Cerrito is highly desirable for its educational offerings, with several early education and elementary schools, including Children’s Garden Montessori and Madera Elementary, plus specialty charter schools focused on STEM and Arts. The town serves as an ideal location for UC Berkeley students and faculty, being a short BART ride away from campus.

Outdoor enthusiasts will find plenty to enjoy in El Cerrito. The Berkeley Country Club, known for its stunning 18-hole golf course, offers expansive views of the Bay Area. Hillside Natural Area appeals to hikers with its 100+ acres of open grasslands, and dog owners appreciate the variety of dog parks and trails available.  And Tilden Park, another expanse of open space is close at hand.

El Cerrito facilitates easy commuting to San Francisco or Oakland with its two BART stations and several transbay bus lines. El Cerrito Plaza, near these transport hubs, is a bustling center for shopping and errands, featuring stores like Trader Joe's, Lucky’s Supermarket, and a range of fast food options. The plaza also hosts a vibrant farmers market.
