Historic suburb of south San Francisco

Summery Mediterranean Revival homes with red-tiled rooftops and arched doorways line the windy streets of this historic hillside community. “They’re absolutely beautiful. They just don’t make homes like this today,” says Realtor Sandra Onken Fiek of Compass Realty. Located in southwest San Francisco, Mount Davidson Manor was one of the city’s original streetcar suburbs — it’s close enough to commute to downtown while still feeling removed from the city’s towering office buildings, skyscrapers and entertainment venues.

Mount Davidson Manor is a section of the Ingleside and consists mostly of single-family homes.

Pastel-colored, Mediterranean Revival homes

Unlike most of the city, the homes in Mount Davidson are detached dwellings, offering residents more privacy and larger lot sizes than the average San Francisco home. Its curvy streets wind up gentle inclines, some of which offer views of the Pacific Ocean in the distance. Homes in the community typically feature a first-floor garage with living quarters on the floor above and large, street-facing living room windows. “They’re a little larger than your typical Sunset style home, and a lot of them have views of the hills and the cityscape,” says Realtor Samantha Competente of Compass Realty. Many of these homes have been well-kept or have been renovated with modern amenities like refinished hardwood floors, new appliances and large windows allowing peek-a-boo views of the ocean. Prices generally range from around $1.5 to $2 million for two- and three-bedroom homes while those with four or more bedrooms can top $3 million.

Outdoor activities from Aptos Park to the Pacific

The community gathers at Aptos Park, a small neighborhood park with tennis courts, a playground, swing sets and a baseball diamond. Sigmund Stern Recreation Grove, one of the city’s best-known parks, is just 2 miles west of Mount Davidson Manor. With rolling meadows, abundant greenery, walking paths and an outdoor amphitheater, it’s a great place to soak up the sun or catch a musical performance during the park’s summer concert series. Further west, residents can meander across the sandy bluffs and windswept beaches along the deep blue Pacific. The nearest indoor recreation center is Ingleside Community Center, where adults and kids can take classes and play indoor sports.
