Moraga Condos & Townhomes

Villa Moraga and Orinda Villas appeal to buyers seeking single-level living with generous patios and established landscaping. Woodminster, Cedars, Poplars, Paseo de Moraga, St. Mary’s Garden, and the newer Wallace Circle and Country Club Drive homes provide larger floor plans, attached garages, and in many cases a lifestyle that closely resembles single-family home ownership while retaining the convenience of HOA-maintained common areas.

The attached-home market in Moraga remains relatively small, which means every sale provides meaningful insight into current market conditions. During the past two years, only 32 condominiums and townhomes sold throughout the city, illustrating how limited inventory remains. Sale prices ranged from $320,000 for an entry-level condominium to $1.415 million for one of Moraga’s newer luxury townhomes. The average sale price reached approximately $700,000, while the median sale price was approximately $595,500. Buyers paid an average of approximately $540 per square foot, with a median of approximately $533 per square foot. Homes averaged 1,293 square feet and spent just 34 days on the market, with half of all sales closing within only 21 days.

The market naturally breaks into several distinct price segments. Entry-level one-bedroom condominiums in Moraga Manor, Skyline Bluffs, Moraga Terrace, and Ascot Drive generally sold between $320,000 and $450,000, providing one of the few remaining affordable ownership opportunities in Lamorinda. Two-bedroom condominiums and townhomes represented the largest portion of the market, typically selling between approximately $450,000 and $800,000 depending on community, square footage, condition, and updates. Larger three-bedroom townhomes generally ranged from the high $800,000s into the low $1.2 million range, while the newest luxury homes at Wallace Circle and Country Club Drive sold between approximately $1.16 million and $1.415 million.

Several communities stood out over the past two years. Ascot Drive, Ascot Court, Skyline Bluffs, and Moraga Terrace accounted for a significant percentage of all attached-home sales, reflecting their popularity among buyers looking for well-maintained homes in established neighborhoods. Wallace Circle and Country Club Drive demonstrated strong demand for newer construction, with several homes selling above $600 per square foot despite elevated mortgage interest rates. Meanwhile, Villa Moraga and Miramonte Gardens continued to command premium pricing because of their spacious layouts, desirable locations, and limited turnover.

One of Moraga’s greatest strengths is its stability. Inventory remains consistently low, and it’s not uncommon for only a handful of condominiums and townhomes to be available at any given time. Buyers looking specifically in Moraga are often attracted by the highly regarded Moraga School District, Campolindo High School, Saint Mary’s College, miles of hiking and biking trails, and the relaxed pace of life that distinguishes Lamorinda from other East Bay communities. These factors continue to support steady buyer demand even during periods of higher interest rates.

For buyers, Moraga offers something increasingly difficult to find in the Bay Area: a community where attached housing provides genuine long-term value, excellent schools, beautiful surroundings, and a quieter lifestyle without sacrificing accessibility. Whether you’re purchasing your first condominium, downsizing from a larger home, or searching for a spacious townhome, Moraga offers an appealing alternative to higher-density condominium markets elsewhere in the East Bay.

Understanding the differences between Moraga’s condominium and townhome communities can have a significant impact on both value and future resale potential. Communities vary considerably in age, floor plans, HOA amenities, reserve funding, architectural style, and long-term appreciation. That’s why working with an agent who specializes in attached housing can make a meaningful difference. I regularly analyze condominium and townhome sales throughout Moraga and Lamorinda, providing buyers and sellers with detailed comparable sales, community-specific market trends, HOA insight, and pricing strategies based on the most recent market activity. Whether you’re buying your first condo or preparing to sell a luxury townhome, my goal is to provide the market knowledge and local expertise needed to maximize your investment in one of the East Bay’s most sought-after communities.
