Siena | Pleasanton

A 162-home Signature-era townhome community near Hacienda and Gibraltar Drives — Pleasanton's most accessible entry point, with a heated pool and deep park access.

Siena: The Entry Point Into Pleasanton's Hacienda Corridor

Siena completes the set. Alongside Avila, Valencia, and Verona, it's one of the Signature-era communities built into Pleasanton's Hacienda corridor in the 1990s — and of the four, Siena is the most accessible entry point into Pleasanton ownership. If you want into this city and this school district at the lowest realistic price of admission, with a heated pool steps from your door and BART minutes away, Siena is where that conversation usually starts.

The Homes

Siena is a community of 162 townhomes set near the corner of Hacienda Drive and Gibraltar Drive, built by Signature Properties in the mid-to-late 1990s. The floor plans are efficient and livable — two- and three-bedroom layouts generally running from about 1,000 to 1,500 square feet. These are true lock-and-leave homes: attached living, low exterior maintenance, and a footprint that suits first-time buyers, down-sizers, investors, and commuters who'd rather spend their weekends out in the Tri-Valley than maintaining a yard.

Recent resale activity has generally landed in the high $800,000s to low $900,000s depending on size, condition, and location within the community — though with attached homes this is exactly the kind of figure to confirm against current MLS data, since the smaller segment of the market can move quickly in either direction.

Amenities Close to Home

Siena's homeowners association maintains the community's shared spaces, and the centerpiece is a heated swimming pool with a hot tub and a park and picnic area — genuinely usable amenities that extend your living space well beyond the square footage of a townhome.

But the bigger amenity story is the one Siena shares with the rest of the Hacienda corridor. Residents have access to the Hacienda park network: Owens Plaza Park, Creekside Park, and the Linear Park, totaling more than a dozen acres of green space, plus a roughly 2.3-mile parcourse circuit with exercise stations, sport courts, and open lawn. For a townhome community, that's an unusually deep recreation bench right outside the door. Confirm current HOA dues and exactly what they cover through MLS data and the association documents during your transaction.

Built for the Commute

Like its sister communities, Siena's strongest argument is location. It sits within the Hacienda Business Park area, so some residents can walk or bike to work at the corporate campuses nearby. For everyone else, the West Dublin/Pleasanton BART station is minutes away, and I-580 and I-680 are immediately accessible — putting San Francisco, Oakland, Silicon Valley, and the Tri-Valley's own job centers within practical reach. Shopping and dining along the Stoneridge and Owens corridors, Stoneridge Mall, and downtown Pleasanton are all close by.

Schools

Homes in Siena fall within the Pleasanton Unified School District, which serves this corridor. Specific elementary, middle, and high school assignments are parcel-specific and can change over time, so verify the current assignment for any specific address directly with the district before making decisions based on schools — I'd rather confirm the exact assignment for your address than have you rely on a generalization.

The Sister Communities

Siena is one of four Signature-era Hacienda communities, with Avila, Valencia, and Verona rounding out the set. Each differs in product mix, size range, and price point — Avila's courtyard detached homes, Valencia's two collections of attached and detached plans, Verona's larger townhomes, and Siena's efficient townhome footprints. Because resale activity rotates among all four and these homes sell quickly, buyers focused on value and commute access should shop the entire cluster rather than fixating on one. I've written guides on each.

My Take

Siena is the rational first step into Pleasanton. It won't win on size or grandeur, and it isn't trying to — it wins on price of entry, a heated pool and a deep park network at your doorstep, and a location that puts work, BART, and freeways within minutes. For first-time buyers and investors especially, that combination is hard to beat in this city. The differences between units here — interior versus end, ground floor versus upper, updated versus original — drive real price and livability gaps, so knowing which is which is the whole game. That kind of street-level detail is where I can genuinely help.
