About the Burlingame Hills Neighborhood

The Burlingame Hills neighborhood begins at the edge of the desirable Easton Addition neighborhood (west of Alvarado Avenue, and about halfway up the hill between El Camino and Skyline), and is bordered to the north by Mills Estates, and to the south by Hillsborough. Many of the neighborhood’s lots are level and have views of the peninsula and the airport, while others have yards that are more hilly. While the inventory of homes in Burlingame Hills has great breadth, the neighborhood’s trend is toward more upscale properties, which pushed its 2018 median home value to $2.65 million. Properties in the neighborhood generally sell between $2 million and $3.4 million. Prices are comparable to the Easton Addition however price per square foot is slightly lower due to the premium associated with being closer to El Camino and shopping.

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.

The Burlingame Hills features gorgeous homes and scenic views. It’s a great choice for those who prefer a little more privacy, bigger lot size, and a little more separation from their neighbors. Many of the streets in the Burlingame Hills are adjacent to Hillsborough, and the feel is quite similar — some of Raziel’s clients say it feels woodsy like Lake Tahoe. The closest grocery store is at the bottom of Trousdale Drive at the corner of El Camino, an easy five minute drive down the hill (though not walking distance), and the 280 freeway is very close by, making the Burlingame Hills ideal for those who commute to downtown San Francisco or Silicon Valley.
