Clarendon Heights is what it would look like if you re-built Pacific Heights at the top of Twin Peaks in the 1960s. Large, sloping lots that assume you have at least two cars. Bridge to bridge views. The land of former mayors and current moguls.

Neighborhood Vibe
Do you have a Keurig? A Nespresso? A butler to run out and fetch you a coffee? True to the post WWII-suburbia-is-the-future mindset, there are no shopping stores or commercial areas within the neighborhood. If you want to walk, it will be down the hill to Cole Valley or the Castro.
Popular Home Styles
Lot sizes in the neighborhood tend to be much larger than most San Francisco lots, and because of the steep hills and terrain the lots can also be a little “irregular” in their shape. And by irregular we mean, “not rectangular.” Neighborhood homes are detached single-family homes, although in some parts of the neighborhood the homes are immediately adjacent to their neighbors. The neighborhood was originally built out starting around the 1950s, so you can find some stunning mid-century homes in Clarendon Heights.
Getting Around
Clarendon Heights assumes you bought a car before you went house shopping. Or that you have enormous quads and love to walk hills. There are several bus lines within walking distance, but the neighborhood was built when cars ruled.

Median sales price is calculated based on sold data and doesn’t account for seller concessions. Median price represents the point at which half of the homes sold for more and half sold for less. In smaller neighborhoods like many of those found in San Francisco, this metric is less likely to be influenced by extremely high or low sales prices that don’t represent the typical neighborhood home.
Days on Market indicates how quickly or slowly homes are selling in the neighborhood. The lower the days on market (DOM), the stronger the market is for sellers, all other things being equal.
The number of homes available for sale in active status at the end of a given month. Fewer homes available for sale may indicate a seasonal trend or market dynamics that favor a seller more than a buyer.
In strong or balanced markets, homes in San Francisco typically sell over asking. In a buyer’s market, homes will sell at list price or slightly under. If a home has had price reductions, the calculation is based on the last listed price.
Price per square foot is most useful when the homes are almost identical in size, age, layout and other factors important to buyers. Our experience suggests it is a more valuable metric in larger condo buildings and less valuable for homes in neighborhoods built with a diverse selection of styles, sizes, and ages.

Clarendon Heights is a neighborhood in the central part of San Francisco. It is bordered by Forest Knolls to the west, Cole Valley to the north, Corona Heights and Twin Peaks to the east, and Midtown Terrace to the south. On an SFAR (San Francisco Association of Realtors) MLS map, Clarendon Heights is identified as neighborhood 5h.
Though tiny in size, Clarendon Heights’ Tank Hill offers local sweeping views of the city and the Golden Gate Bridge. Originally the site of municipal waterworks facilities (hence, “Tank”), the park has paved and unpaved trails, and residents often gather here to watch fireworks on the Fourth of July.
As a purely residential neighborhood, Clarendon Heights offers steep hills for ambitious urban hikers, with gorgeous views that stretch from the Golden Gate to the Bay Bridge. Take your pup for a walk around Tank Hill, or stroll down the way to the charming restaurants and coffee shops of Cole Valley.
Because of its central but “above-the fray” location, Clarendon Heights is a coveted destination for the city’s homebuyers. The neighborhood features mostly single-family homes of varying styles, including Mid-Century Modern, Tudor, and up-to-the-second contemporary. Homeowners here have quick access to the shopping corridors of nearby Cole Valley and the Castro, and the neighborhood can be reached by city bus,
As an “already built” neighborhood, Clarendon Heights is not a neighborhood where you should expect to find substantial new construction projects. Smaller developers may renovate/flip existing properties, or may take advantage of recent housing laws to add additional units to already existing housing. Transit corridors and major neighborhood streets are the most likely areas for new construction buildings in already built neighborhoods with existing housing stock.
