Laid-back, beachfront community close to San Francisco
Fairmont is a beachfront neighborhood in North Pacifica with stunning views of crashing waves, sandy beaches and tree-covered hillsides. It’s also safe, with a CAP Index score of 4, the same as the national average, and it offers a laid-back lifestyle that can sometimes be a challenge to find in the Bay Area. "It's easy to get around; there isn't any major traffic, and you're not waiting at stoplights forever. The city government is easy to navigate; you get to know people in administration. And you really don't have to leave the community to get your needs met; everything you need is right there," says Angel Lozano, a broker and owner of 10-8 Real Estate who has been selling in the area for about six years. Fairmont’s coastal location also means beautiful views and cooler temperatures than further inland. “On very clear days, the view along the horizon is endless,” Lozano says.
Residents have miles of walking trails near esplanade beach and the pacific ocean.

Many homes boast impressive views
Fairmont has several subdivisions stretching across the rolling slopes leading to the ocean. Near the shore are spacious mid-century homes with two-car garages on the first floor, second-floor living spaces and decks with impressive views. Elsewhere, there are rows of ranch-style houses with low-pitched roofs and small, landscaped yards. Some homes perch on steep, woodsy hillsides along narrow roads. Home prices typically range from $915,000 for a three-bedroom, one-bathroom fixer-upper to $1.7 million for a four-bedroom, three-bathroom fully renovated home. Those looking for something with a little less upkeep can find condos ranging from $695,000 to $1.5 million, most featuring three bedrooms and two bathrooms. A few apartment complexes are scattered throughout the community, but most residents are homeowners, about 60%.
