1574 Riorden Ter, Sunnyvale, CA 94087

Sunnyvale
THE HOME

1574 Riorden Terrace sits in a Sunnyvale neighborhood where residential calm meets practical access to Silicon Valley's core corridors. The address places residents within a half-mile of Louis E. Stocklmeir Elementary and less than a mile from Homestead High School, both recognized for academic achievement. Ortega Park and Serra Park anchor nearby green space, while the surrounding street grid opens to commutes that reach Stanford University in seventeen minutes by car and San Francisco International Airport in thirty-six. The terrace address suggests a hillside or elevated setting, a detail that often translates to views and a degree of separation from through traffic.

THE NEIGHBORHOOD

This Sunnyvale enclave delivers a somewhat walkable score of 55, reflecting a car-optional character for many daily errands. Safeway and Zanotto's Sunnyvale Market anchor grocery runs, while Siam Station Cupertino and Feng Hotpot offer sit-down dining within reach. The neighborhood draws families seeking proximity to Homestead High School and Sam H. Lawson Middle School, both rated 10 out of 10 by GreatSchools. Commutes favor flexibility: Downtown San Jose lies seventeen minutes away by car, while Downtown San Francisco is fifty-nine minutes by the same route. Parks and cafes punctuate the blocks, supporting a rhythm that balances suburban privacy with urban-adjacent convenience.

Walk Score®
Somewhat Walkable

Walk Score® rates an address from 0–100 by how easily everyday errands — groceries, coffee, dining, school pickup — can be done on foot. 50+ means some errands can be walked, 70+ means most can, and 90+ is a rare walker's paradise. Transit and Bike scores read the same way for public transportation and cycling.
