Welcome to 2686 Mendocino Dr, a charming one-story, ranch-style corner home in Pinole Valley. This 4-bed/2-bath home offers privacy, convenience, and vibrant outdoor living. The open-concept kitchen, with brand-new stainless steel appliances, flows into the family room and opens to a lush backyard garden. A paved patio and raised garden bed complement the terraced fruit trees—orange, tangerine, apple, lime, and plum—while a grape arbor, blackberry vine, and blueberry bushes add charm. Fragrant lavender, rosemary, and white sage create a peaceful retreat among cedar and Sweetgum trees, home to local birdlife. With a new HVAC system and air conditioning, this home offers year-round comfort. It's just minutes from the newly renovated Pinole Valley High School, a public pool, and the Bay Area Ridge Trail, with stunning views of the SF Bay and Pinole Valley Watershed. Located in a well-established community, this home provides a perfect blend of nature and accessibility. Commuters enjoy quick access to I-80, Hwy 4, and Alhambra Valley Road for a scenic drive to Martinez, Lafayette, and Orinda, plus bus lines just steps away. Blending comfort, natural beauty, and convenience, this move-in-ready home is a rare find! *Furnishings are computer-generated; buyer to verify accuracy/scale

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
