Parkside Homes for Rent

Parkside in San Francisco is a neighborhood characterized by its single-family homes built primarily in the 1930s and 1940s. The area features a mix of Arts and Crafts bungalows, early 20th-century cottages, Marina-style homes, and Mediterranean-influenced designs. The streets are wide and quieter compared to other parts of the Sunset District, with homes often displaying small greenery like succulents. Parkside offers several green spaces, including Parkside Square with its basketball and tennis courts, playground, and picnic areas, and McCoppin Square, which has walking paths, tennis courts, and a baseball field. Sunset Reservoir Park provides scenic views of the Golden Gate Bridge and the Pacific Ocean. Nearby, Sigmund Stern Recreation Grove hosts summer concerts and musical events, and Pine Lake Park is ideal for bird watching. The neighborhood is less than 2.5 miles from the San Francisco Zoo and Ocean Beach, a popular spot for walking and surfing despite its cold temperatures. Taraval Street is the main commercial area, featuring Asian-inspired restaurants like Dumpling Kitchen, Argentinian fare at Chalos, and Irish pub O'Brien's. Local shops and boutiques, as well as larger shopping centers like Lakeshore Plaza and Stonestown Galleria, are within close proximity. Parkside is well-served by public transportation, with multiple bus and Muni light rail stops, and is near major routes like Route 1 and Interstate 280. Schools in the area are highly rated, including Dianne Feinstein Elementary, Aptos Middle School, Abraham Lincoln High School, and the private Lycée Français de San Francisco.
