Stoneridge Townhomes: A Greenbelt Townhome Community by Stoneridge Mall

First, a name note, because Pleasanton has several "Stoneridge" neighborhoods and they're easy to mix up. Stoneridge Townhomes is the established townhome community on the west side of town near Stoneridge Mall — not to be confused with Stoneridge Park, Stoneridge Place, or Stoneridge Square, which are the newer single-family neighborhoods out at the east end of Stoneridge Drive. This is a different place, a different era, and a different kind of home. Here's the picture.

Where it sits

Stoneridge Townhomes sits in west Pleasanton in a lush, tree-lined setting just a short drive from Stoneridge Mall, with quick access to both I-680 and I-580 and the West Dublin/Pleasanton BART station. That location is a big part of the draw: you're close to the mall's shopping and dining, the Hacienda Business Park, and the freeways, which makes it one of the more commute-friendly pockets in the city. Streets like Springdale Avenue and Valley View Court anchor the community.

The homes

This is a contemporary townhome collection built around a quarter-mile, tree-lined greenbelt — and that layout is what gives the community its character. The buildings are generously spaced, with grassy lawns and walking paths threading between them, so it feels far greener and more open than a typical townhome complex. The homes are two-level, generally ranging from roughly 1,200 to a little over 2,100 square feet, with two-car garages and a real amount of private outdoor space: enclosed front patios, fenced back decks, and second-floor balconies. Inside, eat-in kitchens open to combined living and dining rooms anchored by a fireplace, and the larger plans even include a sitting area in the primary suite with a second fireplace. Built across the 1970s and 1980s, these are established homes that tend to live larger than their square footage suggests.

Amenities

The community is built around its shared spaces. At the heart of the complex are tennis courts, a residents' clubhouse, and a pool area with a sun deck and spa, all connected by the greenbelt and walking paths. It's a homeowners' association community, so there are monthly dues that maintain those amenities and the common areas. Exactly what the dues cover and how much they run changes over time, so I pull the current HOA figures and the CC&Rs straight from the MLS and the association documents before you write an offer rather than rely on a published estimate.

Schools

Stoneridge Townhomes falls within the Pleasanton Unified School District (PUSD). Because this part of west Pleasanton has been served by different schools depending on the exact address — and assignments can shift over time — I confirm the designated elementary, middle, and high school by parcel with PUSD before a buyer commits, rather than rely on a general neighborhood label. If schools are central to your search, that's the first thing we verify.

Thinking about Stoneridge Townhomes?

For buyers who want a lower-maintenance home with real outdoor space, resort-style amenities, and a location that's hard to beat for commuting and shopping, Stoneridge Townhomes is a strong option — and because turnover is modest, the right home can move quickly when it comes up. It helps to know which floor plans have the layout and outdoor space you want, which homes sit best along the greenbelt, and what recent sales have actually told us about value here.

Whether Stoneridge Townhomes is exactly what you're after or you're comparing it against the other townhome communities near the mall, I'd be glad to help you understand what's moving and what it's selling for. Knowing how the HOA factors in and how these compare to nearby options makes a real difference. That kind of street-level detail is where I can genuinely help.
