While the City of Campbell began as vast prune orchards and canning facilities in the late 1800s, it has since evolved into a quaint and thriving Bay Area city. Located between San Jose and Los Gatos, Campbell’s historic buildings, tree-lined streets and several large parks catering to children of all ages add an element of small-town charm to the city, while proximity major Silicon Valley freeways and thoroughfares maintain connections to the more fast paced urban lifestyles. When it comes to Campbell real estate and homes for sale, dozens of comfortable neighborhoods create a safe and friendly setting in the city’s residential areas. Around the Dry Creek Road area of the city, the homes are larger, more eye-catching and more expensive, whereas homes near the intersection of Camden and Bascom avenues tend to be a little more fluctuant in style and price. The percolation ponds at the intersection of Hacienda and Winchester Boulevard, mark an area filled with townhouses and abundant classic neighborhood streets filled with middleclass homes built somewhere between the 1950s and the 1970s.
