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.
Burlingame Gardens staged a dramatic recovery in 2025 after recording just 2 sales in 2024. With 8 transactions, sales volume increased 300%, though average prices declined 6.0% to $2.380 million while the median fell 7.7% to $2.338 million. The larger sample size in 2025 makes these figures more reliable than 2024's limited data. The neighborhood remains Burlingame's most affordable, serving as the primary entry point for buyers seeking to establish residence in the city. Days on market improved significantly from 30 to 16.9 days, while the sale-to-list ratio surged from 97.5% to 106.0%, indicating a return to competitive conditions with homes selling above asking. Price per square foot rose 25.8% to $1,576. The combination of substantially higher transaction volume, competitive bidding, and much quicker sales suggests renewed buyer interest in the neighborhood, even as pricing remains the most accessible in Burlingame.
The closest elementary school is McKinley Elementary, which is just across Carolan Avenue on Oak Grove.

Burlingame Real Estate Market Review
In my 15th annual review of the Burlingame residential real estate market, I examine 2025 market trends and relevant sales statistics. You'll learn first-hand what’s happening in your neighborhood.
Schools & History
Schools
The elementary school for the neighborhood is McKinley Elementary, which is just across California Drive. It’s about a 3-4 minute ride.
There is one public middle school, Burlingame Intermediate School, which is located in the Ray Park neighborhood. It’s about a 7 minute drive from Burlingame Gardens.
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.
