All About Alta Heights Napa Neighborhood
Welcome to my Napa Valley vlog where today I take a deep dive into all about Alta Heights Napa neighborhood!
One of the main allures of Alta Heights is it’s location – just four blocks away from Downtown Napa where you will find an array of restaurants ranging from Thai to Greek cuisine, an abundance of tasting rooms, the Napa River Trail and the renowned Oxbow Public Market. But more about that later.
Let’s start off by talking about the homes within the Alta Heights Napa neighborhood. The types of architecture within this Napa neighborhood range from storybook charm cottages, to custom built contemporary two-story homes. The size of the homes are also vastly different throughout the neighborhood, from as little as around 800 square feet to as large as 4,600. To see inside two homes currently for sale within the Alta Heights Napa neighborhood, check out my video above or view on Youtube.
Outside you’ll see white picket fences and cute front porches while inside you’ll find arched walls and original hardwood flooring – which are indicative of the homes built here during the 1940’s.

Alta heights has a lovely park called Lakeview Park where you’ll often see deer on your 0.4 mile (or 1,000 step) walking trail route. There’s also some water features within the park, including the East Napa Reservoir, which are best seen during the winter months.

Alta Heights also has a great elementary school aptly named Alta Heights Elementary which has approximately 300 children enrolled. Currently, there are no before or after school programs. Alta Heights Elementary is one of the more popular schools in the Napa County school district which is seen through the dozens of past and present reviews on many websites such as GreatSchools and the Alta Heights elementary school Facebook Group.

The Oxbow Public Market is a staple within Downtown Napa. One of my favorite stops within the Oxbow Public Market is Bar Luca – they have really great snackable food, but also a great frose with sparkling wine! There’s also a mini grocery store which has fresh fruit and vegetables and locally sourced products such as cheese and jams. Other shops within Oxbow include Live Fire Pizza, Bookmine, Eikos sushi, The Fatted Calf, Milestone, Ritual coffee, Casa restaurant, a wine and cheese bar and last but not least the Hog Island Oyster restaurant, with ample of outdoor seating which overlooks the Napa River. For those looking for a hearty and super tasty burger, go next door to Gott’s and you won’t be disappointed!
