Esparto, CA Townhome for Sale

Esparto is a small, quiet community located in the heart of the Capay Valley, surrounded by agricultural land along the Highway 16 corridor. Known for its peaceful, small-town character, Esparto features a mix of early-20th-century Craftsman homes, late-20th-century ranch-style properties, and newer suburban developments with Spanish Revival-style elements. The town’s center includes traditional single-family homes, a small Main Street-style downtown with local restaurants, and parks such as Esparto Community Park and Tuli Memorial Park and Aquatics Center, which offer playgrounds, basketball courts, and walking trails. The nearby Capay Open Space spans over 40 acres along Cache Creek with 2 miles of walking trails, attracting birdwatchers.
