Granite in the kitchen, marble in the bath, high-efficiency appliances, and designer finishes all around. A rare find, Mercer and the community of Walnut Creek strike the ideal balance of urban sophistication and suburban ease. You've got standards.… That's what we like about you. Mercer has you covered with an in-home 30" gas range and a Sub-Zero® refrigerator that will elevate your leftovers to an artform. Amenities include a full Chef's kitchen in the clubhouse, a sparkling pool and sauna, and a premium 24/7 strength and fitness studio. And with a mind-blowing Walk Score of 90, the Mercer is just two blocks from BART, across the street from the Lesher Center, and a short ride (or 10-minute walk) to the Broadway Plaza.

    Great service

    True luxury property! High end appliances and great open layouts. Most impressive is the service - start a service ticket online and they show up very quickly! We usually put in tickets at night and have someone by the next morning. They do everything, even service the Sub Zero fridge and Viking cooking appliances. Have another small repair/service issue? They'll take care of it while they're there, ticket or not!
