Location information

Concord, California, boasts a rich history evident in landmarks like The Bolla House at 2289 Bonifacio St. Built in 1910, this two-story wood-frame house was originally a residence. Early owners included Mary Freitas and the Green family. However, its historical significance stems from Miss Caroline L. Bolla, a local farming family member who acquired the property in 1924. Miss Bolla, a telephone exchange operator, held onto the house for many years.

The Bolla House stands as a testament to Concord's agricultural past and the lives of prominent families like the Bollas’ who played a role in the city's development. The Concord Historical Society recognized this significance, erecting a historical marker in 2005. Reflecting Concord’s evolution, through the years the Bolla House has taken many forms, including having been converted to office-commercial use and now currently a residential triplex.

The blend of historical preservation and modern adaptation is a hallmark of Concord's downtown. The Todos Santos Plaza, named after the city's original moniker, serves as a vibrant central gathering spot. Restaurants, shops, and trendy cafes line the streets around the plaza, showcasing Concord's cultural tapestry and catering to its diverse population. This unique character makes Concord an attractive proposition for real estate investors and owner occupants alike. The growing demographics suggest a strong market, while the historical charm and cultural offerings could attract residents seeking a vibrant community

Buzz about town

Due to the timeless elegance and undeniable character that defines this one-of-a-kind property, The Bolla House, has not only captured the hearts of its residents but has also become a beloved landmark, frequently featured in promotional videos showcasing the charm of Concord, like this one from homes.com (about the 30 second mark).

In 2018, the Todos Santos Plaza was named one of three Great Places in California by the American Planning Association

Steeped in history, Concord, California, has transformed from indigenous lands to a vibrant city. Founded in 1869 by Don Salvio Pacheco, a prominent Californio ranchero, it was initially named Todos Santos (All Saints). This name lives on in the central plaza, a hub of community life. Early Concord thrived on agriculture, with families like the Pachecos shaping the local economy with vineyards, orchards, and farms.

Today, Concord's downtown reflects its rich past. The Todos Santos Plaza bustles with daily activity, hosting events like the Concord Summer Jazz Festival, two Farmer’s Markets (one year-round), and an array of musical and arts events. Concord-born jazz legend Dave Brubeck spent his first 12 years immersed in the city's music scene, likely influenced by his mother, a renowned local piano teacher. The city honors him with Dave Brubeck Park and recognition by the Concord Historical Society. Beyond actors like Tom Hanks, Concord has also nurtured talents like architect Frank O. Gehry and baseball player T. Aaron Taylor. Even the world of diplomacy has a Concord connection with W. Earl Anthony Wayne, a former U.S. Assistant Secretary of State.
