About the Burlingame Grove Neighborhood

Burlingame Grove is a traditionally entry-level neighborhood that’s been gradually raising its profile for the past several years. Last year, the neighborhood located just northwest of Broadway blew past $2 million average home value, finished at $2.48 million, an increase of 31% from 2019’s $1.89 million. Median home value soared to $2.36 million, also up 31% year-over-year. Meanwhile, total sales increased by 21% and average DOM fell by 9% as demand in the neighborhood continued to grow. Perhaps in response to that demand, Burlingame Grove has seen an influx of new construction — larger homes that have driven up overall property values. In 2020, five Burlingame Grove homes sold for $3 million or above. Of the five, three were built in 2020, one was a 2019 to-the-studs remodel and the other was completed in 2012.

Learn More About Burlingame Grove

A perfect neighborhood for young families.

Burlingame Grove has two of the most picturesque tree-lined streets you’ll see in all of Burlingame — Cambridge and Oxford. Burlingame Grove, like Burlingame Terrace to its south, is another early development located on the former property of the Eastons’ Black Hawk Ranch. Children were once so numerous in this area that residents advocated for their own school. Coolidge Elementary, formerly located on Grove Avenue, opened in 1927 so that the 130 young children in the immediate area would not be forced to “journey” to McKinley or Roosevelt. During a period of sharp enrollment declines in the 1970s, Coolidge School was the first of four Burlingame elementary schools that were closed. Coolidge School ultimately was demolished and the property was used for homes. Recently, the elementary schools have experience a surge in enrollment; Roosevelt school reopened in the 1990s and Hoover School has been recently been repurchased.
