Exploring The Villas in Walnut Creek: A Hidden Gem Condo Complex with Unique Perks

If you’re searching for a mid-range, well-maintained condo complex in Walnut Creek, look no further than The Villas on Olympic Boulevard. Built in 1991, The Villas stands out with its Mediterranean-inspired design, convenient location, and thoughtful amenities. Here’s a closer look at why The Villas could be the perfect choice for your next home.

What Makes The Villas Special?

1. Mediterranean Charm Meets Modern Convenience

  • The Villas exudes a Mediterranean vibe with its three-story structure and is equipped with an elevator—ideal for those who prefer accessibility and ease. Built at a time when in-unit washers and dryers were uncommon in condo complexes, each unit at The Villas includes this feature, saving you trips to a communal laundry room and offering you the convenience of doing laundry in your own space.

2. Split into North Villas and South Villas

  • This unique complex is split into two homeowners associations: North Villas and South Villas. Historically, South Villas had lower HOA fees than the North, though over time the fees have evened out. Each association covers essentials like roof maintenance, trash, water, sewer, and exterior upkeep, plus a well-maintained pool.

3. Well-Kept Community with Long-Term Residents

  • The Villas is known for its well-run HOA and beautifully maintained grounds. Residents often stay for extended periods, adding to the community's charm and stability. Units on the ground floor offer large, shaded private patios, while upper-floor units feature vaulted ceilings and cozy fireplaces. It’s a condo complex with a high-quality living experience that feels like home.

4. Great Location for Commuters and Families

  • Located on Olympic Boulevard, The Villas is conveniently near both Highways 24 and 680, making it an ideal spot for commuters. The community is also zoned for top-rated schools, including Parkmead Elementary, Walnut Creek Intermediate, and Los Lomas High School, adding appeal for families seeking quality education.

5. Rental Restrictions for Long-Term Stability

  • While The Villas has a strong sense of community, it’s important for prospective investors to note the rental restrictions. Rental availability is limited, and potential renters must join a waiting list. This policy encourages more owner-occupancy, fostering a stable, close-knit environment that residents value.

Is The Villas Right for You?

With its combination of accessibility, convenience, and charm, The Villas offers a great mid-range option for homebuyers in Walnut Creek. The complex’s amenities, prime location, and well-kept community make it a standout choice in the area. However, if you’re considering an investment property, be mindful of the rental restrictions.
