San Mateo

Eastern Addition

A diverse urban neighborhood whose borders include several blocks of San Mateo’s growing downtown, San Mateo's Eastern Addition is an amazingly central location. The neighborhood, which borders Burlingame to the north, sits between Delaware Street and El Camino to the east and west and offers an array of single-family homes, condominiums and apartments stretching across a wide range of price points.

Living here means embracing an urban lifestyle. The Eastern Addition neighborhood is super walkable to Burlingame Avenue’s excellent restaurants and shopping, as well as downtown San Mateo’s shops and restaurants too. Commuters can walk to the downtown CalTrain station or drive a short way to Highway 101. Families will note that venerable San Mateo High School lies within the neighborhood, on Delaware Street.

The Eastern Addition neighborhood includes a mix of romantic bungalow homes, small condo buildings and apartments on pretty tree-lined blocks. Many homes easily sell between $1.5 and $2 million, and two bedroom condos typically start in the $880k range and can easily go over $1 million.

Boasting a convenient location and a downtown vibe but still offering small residential streets and vintage homes — plus a wide variety of apartment and condominium choices — the Eastern Addition neighborhood is an excellent choice for buyers looking for an urban lifestyle that also offers a foothold in the San Mateo market.

Early San Mateo was a place of large estates and boldface names familiar to anyone who’s driven the town’s streets. Parrott, Hayward, Borel—these were the wealthy pioneers who sowed the seeds that eventually grew into today’s modern city of 100,000 residents. San Mateo was borne from their needs and later from their subdivided land, all around a stagecoach stop established in 1849 by Nicolas de Peyster on former Ohlone tribal land.
