Suburban convenience in South Hayward
Showcasing a variety of housing styles, sizes and prices, Glen Eden is a massive residential garden on the southern end of Hayward. Although the community is surrounded by industrial areas on the coast of the East Bay, it retains a youthful suburban spirit with walkable schools and bike-friendly streets. “Glen Eden is a bit of a rarity in Hayward, as rather than new construction, it mostly has established starter homes,” says Rich Fleming, a Realtor with Realty ONE Group Future and a longtime resident of the Bay Area. The combination of affordable prices and nearby educational options makes Glen Eden particularly attractive to families, although commuters will find the neighborhood just as convenient.
With a CAP Index crime score of 3 out of 10, Glen Eden is on the safer side for Hayward, and abundant speed bumps ensure drivers slow down on residential streets. Located at the confluence of West Tennyson Road and Interstate 580, St. Rose Hospital offers both employment and health care opportunities, while nearby shopping centers mean residents are never far from a weekly grocery trip or dinner on the go. With more variety than most Hayward neighborhoods, Glen Eden opens doors for buyers at many different price points, making it a sought-after community in the East Bay.

Diverse properties attract a range of buyers
Glen Eden is split into several distinct tracts, offering buyers a range of styles and sizes to choose from. Mobile home communities like the all-ages Pueblo Springs provide the cheapest option without sacrificing amenities like a clubhouse and pool, while townhouse complexes like Glen Eden Gardens are an ecosystem of their own with paved trails and sidewalks connecting dozens of buildings. Many of the detached homes surrounding Penke Park have distinct, Spanish-inspired red barrel-tile roofs and average about $900,000 for 1,500-square-foot four-bedroom properties. Larger builds can sometimes command prices just over a million, but buyers can expect most single-family properties to sell between $800,000 and $900,000, while spacious townhouses tend to sell closer to $700,000.

Nature at your doorstep
Glen Eden residents don’t have to go far for outdoor recreation, whether it’s a pickup game at neighborhood spots like Penke Park or a hike through the marshland at the Eden Landing Ecological Reserve. Neighbors gather for casual tennis matches and picnics at Mt. Eden Park, which surrounds an early 20th-century mansion built by one of Hayward’s establishing families, while Palma Ceia Park is a popular stop for playdates in the afternoon. About 5 miles away, the Garin and Dry Creek Pioneer Regional Parks provide more than 5,800 acres of open space and 35 miles of rustic trails beloved by hikers, bikers and equestrians alike. After major storms, adventurers should keep an eye on the city’s website for trail closures, as sections of the park will be under construction until 2025.
