20 Homes for sale in Livermore
Livermore anchors the eastern end of the Tri-Valley, sitting at the mouth of the Livermore Valley where the coastal range opens into a wide agricultural basin. It is simultaneously a world-class scientific research community — home to Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and Sandia National Laboratories — and one of the Bay Area's most productive wine regions, with over 50 wineries along the Livermore Valley AVA. The city's revitalized downtown, strong employment base, and relative affordability compared to the peninsula and North Bay make it one of the most well-rounded places to buy in the Bay Area.
