Greetings from the Golden Gate Bridge
One of San Francisco’s most coveted neighborhoods, Presidio Heights abuts some of the city’s most magnificent landmarks. With eight-figure homes to match, this affluent enclave took shape in the early 20th century next to the Presidio, a former Spanish fortress and U.S. Army base that’s been transformed into a sprawling national park at the southern tip of the Golden Gate Bridge.
The neighborhood’s elaborate architecture is a love letter to the extravagance of the early 20th century. Today, the exclusivity is not much different, save for an injection of capital from tech’s 1%. As nearby Pacific Heights battles for billionaires’ attention, luxury drips from these quiet residential streets lined with stately homes lodging the city’s elite. Removed from the buzz of the city, ritzy residents enjoy glorious views of the Golden Gate Bridge and convenient access to posh shopping and dining.

Elegance and eye-catching architecture
Classical home styles mix with chic modern builds in this steep, upscale community. Hilly, tree-lined streets feature elaborate Edwardians with bay windows standing shoulder-to-shoulder with storybook Tudors and red tile-topped Mediterranean estates. “The classic architecture is the main selling point,” says Kira Mead, Realtor at Real SF Properties and a frequent local seller. “These are some of the best homes in the city.” Listings can climb to $30 million for truly epic estates, often stretching to 10,000 square feet with immaculately landscaped hedges and ornamental trees. However, relatively smaller homes on oversized lots are attainable for under $10 million. And for under $1 million, aspirational buyers hoping to join the party can find small condos in the multiunit buildings on Sacramento Street. Either way, inventory can be hard to come by in this sought-after spot: Once listed, it’s rare for any home to stick around for more than a month or two.

The Presidio of San Francisco is a 1,500-acre national park with rolling, grassy hills descending eastward into San Francisco Bay and, outside the Gate, westward into the rough seas of the Pacific Ocean.
