Presidio Heights

Presidio Heights is one of San Francisco’s most elegant residential neighborhoods, known for refined homes, quiet tree lined streets, proximity to the Presidio, and easy access to Sacramento Street shops, dining, schools, and parks.

Welcome To Presidio Heights​​​​​​​

A rarefied community where Silicon Valley’s elite mingle with affluent families.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Presidio’s quiet streets are lined with grand, stately mansions that trade bay views for serenity, hiking trails, and a famed golf club.

Located just south of the Presidio, this immaculate neighborhood is mere steps away from some of San Francisco’s most alluring hiking trails and parks. Presidio Heights offers seclusion amid the hustle of the Bay Area.

The Neighbors

Successful tech moguls who enjoy a more refined sense of living..

Presidio Heights has the distinction of being not only an affluent neighborhood, but a family-friendly one as well. Residents come to Presidio for a variety of reasons, but they all come with an eye toward permanency. It is a place individuals and families come when they’ve achieved plenty and are looking to plant their roots.

What To Expect

A rarified-yet-muted family environment.

Historic mansions and large family homes brimming with charm line Presidio’s streets. This serene and exclusive neighborhood offers a plethora of luxurious and captivating residences.

The Lifestyle

Quiet and elegant, with a close proximity to shopping and dining.

Presidio’s residents are people who’ve worked hard to get to this neighborhood, so when locals go out, they have plenty of high-quality restaurants to choose from. However, if they do get tired of this selection, they walk over to Clement Street where shopping and dining options seem endless.

Unexpected Appeal

A high-end neighborhood removed from the buzz of the city.

It’s not the type of place that attracts high-profile residents looking for an active nightlife, but instead a preferred landing spot for city dwellers whose aim is to put down roots..

The Market

This neighborhood has more than its share of eight-figure homes and inventory can be hard to come by.

Presidio Heights is a place where eight-figure asking prices are not unusual and where the few sub-million dollar properties available are always one-bedroom condos. The “average” Presidio Heights home usually sells for upwards of $2 million. This does not mean that Presidio Heights is completely without condos or apartments; the Sacramento Street corridor has several multi-unit buildings. These apartments do command very high rents, guaranteeing that even those renting in Presidio Heights have done plenty of work to get there.

You'll Fall In Love With

Opulence sans the buzz of a famous neighborhood.

Early mornings in the Presidio, watching the fog pass beneath the Golden Gate Bridge; quiet nights dining at Spruce and low-key after-work drinks at Garibaldi’s; all of these activities (and many more) will make you feel like you’ve found a secret enclave in which to spend your life.

WELCOME TO PRESIDIO HEIGHTS​​​​​​​

A timeless enclave where elegance meets tranquility.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
