Martinez Real Estate Info in California

Martinez is located in Contra Costa County, California, a family-friendly community where 35,000 residents call home. It is conveniently located near HWY-4 and I-680, next to Pleasant Hill, Concord, and Lafayette. Residents enjoy its waterfront homes, scenic backdrop of rolling hills and proximity to the cities of the San Francisco Bay area, Sacramento and San Jose. Martinez is near three major airports: Oakland International, San Francisco International and San Jose International. Buses and Amtrak provide further transportation.

Commercial, industrial, high-tech and health care businesses, such as Equilon, Kaiser Permanente and Tosco, dominate Martinez’s economy. Public school students are served by the Martinez Unified School District, which maintains standard elementary and secondary schools as well as a continuation high school. Martinez has more than a dozen parks that offer facilities such as basketball courts and ball fields. Homeowners enjoy even more recreational options at nearby Mt. Diablo State Park, Point Reyes National Seashore, China Camp State Park and Don Edwards San Francisco Bay National Wildlife Refuge. Yosemite National Park and Lake Tahoe provide ideal weekend getaways. Delightful and educational attractions in Martinez include the Martinez Historical Museum and John Muir National Historic Site.

Real estate in Martinez is diverse, with single-family homes, condos and townhouses making up the majority of the market. Many properties include striking views of the surrounding hillsides and valleys, and many lots and estates of land—particularly in the serene and beautiful Alhambra Valley—provide for many custom home building opportunities.
