Overview
Tucked Away Mid-Century Modern Treasure
Tucked away amid a setting of natural beauty, this mid-century modern jewel is a well-preserved capsule of 1960 design. Vintage elements such as floor-to-ceiling walls of glass, cork floors, and sleek walnut staircase are accented by modern-day conveniences such as updated appliances and a desirable open-concept floor plan to create the perfect balance of classic and new. Designed to showcase the stunning canyon setting it was built within, the home spans two levels, each enveloped by a wraparound deck and with most rooms opening to the outdoors. The main level comprises the public rooms, while all three bedrooms are privately located on the lower level of the home. Outside, almost one-half acre of lush canyon greenery is dotted with mature oaks and natural stone walking paths, creating a personal sanctuary amid the woods. All of this, with a convenient location close to parks, trails, and downtown amenities, plus access to Burlingame schools and less than 2 miles to Highway 280 for easy access to Silicon Valley or San Francisco

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.

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.
