Built shortly after World War II, Clearfield Park is San Carlos’ entry-level, an alternative for buyers looking to purchase single-family homes at near condominium prices. While Clearfield Park, like many entry-level Peninsula neighborhoods, has accelerated in desirability and value in recent years, homes for sale here can still be had for between $1.2 and $1.8 million and they are, in many ways, as charming as their pricier neighbors across El Camino Real – though much smaller; most originally had less than 1,000 square feet and two or three bedrooms, though some have been expanded. Clearfield Park, also known as “the Murphy tract,” after the builder who developed much of the area in 1948, is within walking distance of CalTrain and downtown’s Laurel Street.
