Burlingame

Burlingame Gardens

Burlingame Gardens is walking distance to the Burlingame High School campus and athletic facilities and is also quite close to the shopping and restaurants on Broadway and the Broadway overpass, which leads to a beautiful jogging trail along the Bay, near Bayside Park and SF International Airport hotels.

2022 was a challenging year for Burlingame Gardens real estate; year-over-year overall sales fell by half to seven and average prices tumbled by 20% percent, from $2.32 million to $1.86 million (median fell 24%, from $2.39 million to $1.82 million). More than 20% of Burlingame’s sub-$2 million transactions were found in Burlingame Gardens. There are, however, reasons for optimism in Burlingame Gardens: sale price to asking price remained very healthy, at 103.3%, but more interestingly, price per square foot, which had declined by 5.5% in 2021 after setting an all-time high in 2020, soared to $1,533 in 2022, a 24% increase and fifth-highest in the entire city.

The closest elementary school is McKinley Elementary, which is just across Carolan Avenue on Oak Grove.

Schools & History

Schools

There is one public high school, Burlingame High, which is just south of the neighborhood at Oak Grove and Carolan and is within easy walking distance.

History

This is another early development located on the former property of the Eastons’ Black Hawk Ranch. At one time, a Chinese shrimp farm operated on the shores of the Bay near present day Cadillac Way, where the current Rector Porsche Audi car dealership stands. Winchester Drive reveals the name of another former resident. Sarah Winchester, the heiress to the Winchester rifle fortune, maintained a house-boat on the shores of the Bay near the eucalyptus trees just south of present day Anza Boulevard. Corbitt Avenue is named after William Corbitt, the owner of a horse-breeding farm—San Mateo Stock farm—that used to occupy the grounds of present day Burlingame High School. Residents of Burlingame Gardens enjoy its proximity to the high school (and its track and pool) and its proximity to both Broadway and Burlingame Avenue, as well as its easy access to 101.
