Overview
Quintessential Burlingame in Premier Easton Addition
This is Burlingame living – a premier location combined with quintessential Spanish architecture with Moorish arches, wrought-iron accents, and a tiled roof. On a corner lot in the most desirable Easton Addition neighborhood, the home is only two blocks to Broadway and just over one mile to Burlingame Avenue, putting boutique shopping and dining all close-at-hand. Inside and out, the home exudes the warmth and character of its circa 1931 heritage – fine hardwood floors throughout, true divided-light windows, and original lath and plaster walls. A fireplace is featured in the spacious living room, leaded glass cabinetry adds function and style in the formal dining room, and the updated chef’s kitchen has everything needed to host entertaining as well as everyday meals. The home’s 3 bedrooms are highlighted by a master suite with a remodeled bathroom that is luxuriously large for the home’s era. Outside, the fine amenities continue with wonderful gathering spaces around a fireplace, a dedicated vegetable garden, and ample room for play and the family pet. Plus, with access to acclaimed local schools and a midway location between Silicon Valley and San Francisco, this is indeed the perfect place to call home! (Rear yard photo coming soon)

For the year, Easton Addition homes sold for an average of $3.574 million, up slightly from 2022’s $3.517 million — and up 8% since 2021. Overall sales were down but still the highest in town, but average DOM increased from 19 to 32 and the sale-to-list price ratio fell by almost 5%, to 98.8%, both something to watch as the local market continues to evolve.Also notable: overall sales in Easton Addition have fallen 42% since 2021, which likely says more about the market than it does about the popularity of Easton Addition

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.
