Overview
Light-Filled Ranch with Classic Appeal
Located on a tree-lined street in the desirable Burlingables neighborhood, this circa 1940 home has been carefully updated to preserve its original charm while offering the open-concept floor plan so sought after today. Arched entryways, gleaming hardwood floors, and classic crown moldings pay homage to the home’s heritage, while smart renovations bring the home into the modern era. Wide windows, skylights, and soft neutral colors combine to create an ambiance that is light, bright, and inviting. The redesigned kitchen, certain to be the home’s central gathering place, is open to both the family and dining rooms and finished in a crisp, all-white palette. There are 2 bedrooms and 2 full baths, with the master suite tucked privately at the rear of the home. Outside, the fenced rear yard and paved patio offer a secluded venue for dining and recreation. Located just one-half mile from all the amenities of downtown Burlingame, this lovely home also enjoys close proximity to Highway 101, plus access to excellent Burlingame schools.

Favorable
Arguably Burlingame's hottest neighborhood; less than one home per month on average comes up for sale
Quintessential tree-lined streets with classic Burlingame homes
Super close and easily walkable to Downtown Burlingame and Burlingame Avenue, Washington Park, and Caltrain
Adverse
Lot sizes are on average 5,000 s/f compared to the 6,000 s/f average for Burlingame, however, most homes have attached garages with full-sized yards, and many homes on 6,000 s/f lots elsewhere in Burlingame have detached garages with the garage in the rear of the property
Homes within one or two blocks of the freeway may have freeway noise
High price per square foot, but worth it for those who choose to buy in the neighborhood
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.

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.
