Buying and selling a home in Vallejo
A Solano County waterfront city with maritime history, Mare Island, historic architecture and ferry service to San Francisco.
A waterfront city with a maritime past
Vallejo is a waterfront city with a strong maritime history and a wide variety of neighborhoods. It's known for the naval shipyard heritage of Mare Island, its historic architecture, and the ferry service to San Francisco. If you're seeing it for the first time, start at the waterfront, where there are shoreline views, places to walk and places to stop for a meal.
Mare Island adds another layer, with historic buildings that reflect the city's shipbuilding past. I'm Adriana Cueva, a bilingual REALTOR® with Realty ONE Group FOX, and I help buyers and sellers in Vallejo from my office in Vacaville.
The homes in Vallejo
Vallejo's housing is unusually varied. There are Victorian and Craftsman homes, mid-century properties, suburban subdivisions and waterfront condominiums. Some homes in the historic districts date to the late 1800s and early 1900s. Other neighborhoods developed through the 1950s, 1960s, 1970s and 1980s, and the 1980s were an especially big period of growth. There are also homes from the 1990s and 2000s.
The architecture, terrain and setting can change a lot from one neighborhood to the next, so getting to know individual neighborhoods is worth the time.
Things to do
Vallejo offers waterfront walks, historic district tours and outings to Six Flags Discovery Kingdom. You can explore Mare Island, eat or drink with a view of the water, or take the ferry to downtown San Francisco for a day trip. That mix of waterfront access, historic character and regional connections gives buyers more reasons to get to know the city than the house alone.
