Upscale community in the scenic countryside of Bucktown

Bucktown's gravel driveways lead to country estates with mansions on multiple acres, in an upscale community in the rural countryside of California. Surrounded by fields and mountain views, its private properties have untapped potential with acreage for livestock, agriculture and renovations. "The lots are a lot bigger in Bucktown. People can plant private vineyards to make bottles of wine during the harvest," says Janice Jackson, an area local and broker at First Realty and Investment. "You get more land for your buck, and the Pleasant Valley is gorgeous." This residential area is about 4 miles north of Vacaville, a town center with local restaurants and festive events.
