Burlingame’s second-most popular neighborhood had a mostly static year in 2024, though with 23 total sales it was 28% more active than it had been in 2023 (and 9% more active than in 2022).  Prices were static, finishing at $2.983 million ($2.998 million in 2023), with homes selling in an average of 23 days (24 in 2023).  Overall price-per-square foot rose slightly, from $1,197 to $1,216 and buyers paid 107.3% of asking for Burlingame Hills homes, good enough for a tie with Ray Park for second-highest in Burlingame.  Note that despite coming in as Burlingame’s fifth-most-expensive neighborhood for average and median home prices, Burlingame Hills continues to offer good value. That $1,216 per square foot mark is the city’s lowest.

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.
