Get to Know a Neighborhood in San Francisco: Midtown Terrace

By
Real Estate Agent with Park North Real Estate CA DRE# 01893222

Nestled along the western slope of Twin Peaks is Midtown Terrace, an enclave of single family homes built in the 1950’s. The Midtown Terrace Homeowner’s Association, consisting of about 800 single family homes, was created in 1957. The neighborhood features mid-century homes arranged in rows on terraced streets that take advantage of the beautiful views, and is surrounded by greenbelts, forests, reservoirs, and open space. As one of only a few “planned communities” in San Francisco, there are no shops, businesses, or commercial streets. However, these are easily accessible in nearby Mira Loma, West Portal, and Diamond Heights.

 

Midtown Terrace is a wonderful place to call home for families, couples and professionals. In addition to many hiking trails, it has a recently updated playground as well as neighborhood events organized by the Homeowner’s Association. The neighborhood abuts the renowned lookout vista called Christmas Tree Point, which offers an almost panoramic view of the City.

 

Midtown Terrace is perfect for those looking for a family-friendly environment, natural landscape and a quiet nightlife.  Due to its central proximity, Midtown Terrace offers easy access to freeways for commuters and it’s a short drive to the Castro, Noe Valley, Glen Park and West Portal neighborhoods. There are several excellent public, private and parochial schools nearby.
