Muir Pointe - Hercules, CA

Muir Pointe is a 144-home single-family neighborhood within Hercules' 106-acre Bayside master-planned development. Built by Taylor Morrison, the completed community features two- and three-story homes inspired by Queen Anne and Italianate architecture. Its original development included two collections, The Cove and The Tides, with floor plans designed around flexible living spaces and outdoor decks or porches. Buyers today will find an established resale market rather than new construction, making individual property condition and association documents important considerations.

HOMES

Taylor Morrison built 144 detached homes in two collections, The Cove and The Tides. The original builder specifications list approximately 2,017 to 2,566 square feet, with three or four bedrooms, 2.5 to four bathrooms and two-car garages. Homes range from two to three stories and draw architectural influences from Queen Anne and Italianate designs. Features include open-concept living areas, decks or porches, flexible rooms and, in selected plans, multigenerational suites. The development is sold out; purchases are through resale.

AMENITIES

Muir Pointe includes a landscaped gathering area with a 20-by-20-foot shade structure and permanent seating, documented by the recreation equipment contractor. Property records also identify park, playground and dog park facilities among the association amenities. These features provide outdoor gathering and recreational space within the neighborhood. The community's original development marketing also referenced additional outdoor recreation elements. Swimming pools, fitness centers, tennis courts and organized social programs have not been verified as Muir Pointe facilities.
