Built by Rouseau Development between 1868 and 1975, Pleasanton Meadows remains best known for its generous floor plans in a luxurious neighborhood boasting an abundance of cul-de-sacs, a community pool and a cabana. A greenbelt runs through the neighborhood connecting with Fairlands Elementary School, giving residents access to a lush countryside.

The Pleasanton Meadows Cabana Club (PMCC) remains the communal heart of the community, holding an annual Easter egg hunt, grand opening barbecue, and a fall wine and food party. Another popular feature of Pleasanton Meadows, residents flock to picturesque Meadows Park for picnics as well as other recreational activities.

Situated in the northeastern part of Pleasanton, the neighborhood’s borders include I-580 to the north, Staples Ranch to the east, Santa Rita Road to the west, and West La Positas Boulevard to the south. Consisting of quaint single- and two-story houses, many home owners have remodeled, upgraded and expanded the original structures over the years. These well-kept homes typically range in size from 1300 to almost 2500 square feet. The spacious lots range from 6000 to 9000 square feet with two- to three-car garages.



The development lies conveniently close to downtown Pleasanton. Pleasanton Meadows residents can easily access the area’s shops, restaurants, mall and other city amenities, making it an even more desirable address. A short walk takes commuters to Highway 580 and the local BART station that can take you to San Francisco in about 45 minutes.
