Classic & Timeless for Today or Transform for the Future
Classic and timeless, tucked away on an oak-studded lot of more than one-half acre, this home is freshly painted and ready to move in today or transform for the future. A wide staircase and lush front foliage introduce the home, which boasts mid-century appeal complete with of-the-era diamond-patterned windows. Inside, hardwood floors extend throughout much of the home, which is bright and light with windows and glass doors taking full advantage of the oak-tree views; outside, a large deck spans the rear of the home and also enjoys tree views. The floor plan is exceptionally flexible with spaces for formal living and dining, an office if needed, a family room, plus a lower-level recreation room and even the perfect spot for fitness with mirrored wall panels. A fireplace enhances the ambiance in the living room and in the recreation room. There are 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths (lower-level bath is plumbed for a full bath), including the primary suite and two bedrooms on the main level plus one bedroom on the lower level. The wonderfully private backyard features numerous mature treets. An oversized 2-car garage and laundry room add the finishing touch. Located in Burlingame Hills on the edge of Hillsborough, this home is ever so convenient to Highway 280 and has access to excellent Burlingame schools. Welcome home!

Burlingame
Burlingame Hills
Burlingame Hills’ often-overlooked secret— that it’s Burlingame’s greatest value at $1,195 per square foot — again made it the city’s second-most popular neighborhood in 2022 for the most number of sales (after Easton Addition), but like the rest of Burlingame, it suffered by comparison to 2021. 21 homes sold in Burlingame Hills last year, a decline of 38% from 2021 but still 61% increase over the 13 that sold in 2020. Average home values fell slightly, from $3.225 (a 22% increase from 2020) to $3.177 million, but there are enough indicators, like a 53% fall in average DOM from 2021 to 2022 to suggest that, despite the challenges posted by larger market conditions Burlingame Hills has gained a foothold among Burlingame buyers.
The closest public elementary schools are Hoover Elementary. Nueva Elementary is nearby down the road on Skyline, and is a private elementary and middle school focusing on the arts for gifted and talented children.

Favorable
Ability to purchase a larger home on a larger lot, possibly with a view
Close to 280 which makes commuting to the Valley or San Francisco nice and convenient
Better value than a comparably sized home in Easton Addition
Adverse
Not walking distance to a park, Burlingame Ave, or Broadway
Though a large lot is a possibility, it can be challenging to find one with a level yard
The neighborhood is unincorporated San Mateo County
Burlingame is one of the few areas that has maintained its gracious charm and timeless elegance over the decades. A favorite among families, Burlingame’s two main shopping areas, Burlingame Avenue and Broadway, attract a wide variety of shoppers discovering its boutiques, restaurants, dessert places, and clothing stores. Home to fresh farmer’s markets every Sunday morning in the summer and fall, jazz concerts in Washington Park, and a yearly Art in the Park fair, Burlingame is a wonderful place to start a family or retire later in life, and is well equipped for both!
Its tree lined streets offer an abundance of architecture and style of homes, from quaint two bedroom bungalows to thoughtfully designed four and five bedrooms.

Burlingame shares a common history with neighbors San Mateo, Millbrae and Hillsborough, but only up to a point. Like the surrounding communities, Burlingame was once the site of native Costanoan villages and then part of a Mexican land grant (Rancho Buri Buri to the north and Rancho San Mateo to the south). Burlingame’s history diverges from that of nearby Peninsula cities in the late 1800s, when Francis Newlands, son-in-law of landowner and Nevada Senator William Sharon, came up with a plan to turn this stretch of real estate into a playground for San Francisco’s wealthiest residents.
