Napa Valley
Napa Valley is located an hour north of San Francisco. The towns and the countryside there are very attractive with high-quality restaurants, coast-side golf courses, unique shops and galleries, easy access to the Pacific and the redwood forests.
The Napa Valley is stretching from the town of Napa up to Calistoga. With more than 70,000 residents, Napa has grown into a midsize city in the last few decades. It is the centre of the valley, with grocery stores, stylish restaurants and shopping malls. Its housing stock ranges from affordable Craftsman bungalows to rambling Victorians, and its geographic focal point is the Napa River. A wine-tasting and shopping center called Copia has drawn bus loads of tourists to the downtown.
Immediately when you leave Napa’s city limits, you will enter a landscape of tawny hills, oak grasslands and elegant ranch-style houses. You won’t find sidewalks or storm drains; instead you will marvel at vistas of vineyards backed by stately mountains to the east and west.
As well as there are two 18-hole golf courses nearby: the Napa Valley Country Club and Silverado Country Club. They might be one reason that many second-home buyers choose to live near, not in, Napa.
