Tucked into the foothills of Mt. Diablo and just steps from downtown Danville, The Nova reimagines what an active adult community can be. With only 50 residences, it offers the rare combination of refined design, walkable convenience, and a genuine sense of neighborhood—all without the upkeep of a single-family home.

A Home Designed Around You

Each residence is shaped by thoughtfully designed interiors from Diamond’s collaboration with LKM Interiors, with warm white oak flooring, abundant natural light, and finishes selected to feel both elegant and effortless. Kitchens feature custom cabinetry, engineered quartz countertops, and Miele appliances, while spa-inspired bathrooms bring porcelain tile and quiet luxury to everyday routines. Homes range from one to three bedrooms (898 to 1,917 square feet), with residences priced from the $1 millions and larger three-bedroom layouts starting in the low $2 million.

Amenities That Bring the Community Together

Beyond the front door, The Nova’s shared amenity spaces are built for connection. An elevated indoor-outdoor amenity bridge links a fitness studio, a rooftop terrace, and a sophisticated bar and lounge. A classic library and game room—anchored by a double-sided limestone fireplace—invites slower afternoons, while the rooftop sets the scene for evening drinks with neighbors who quickly become friends.

Lock-and-Leave Living, Simplified

Perhaps the greatest luxury at The Nova is freedom. As a true lock-and-leave community, it removes the burden of home maintenance and exterior upkeep—so you can travel, explore new hobbies, or simply enjoy your weekends. (To be clear, this is independent living, not assisted living: the goal is to enable your lifestyle, not manage it.) Built by Lafayette-based Diamond Construction with award-winning FORM4 Architecture, The Nova pairs lasting quality with carefree, explore the available floor plans to find the layout that fits your next chapter.
