More About Forest Hill Extension

Forest Hill Extension is bounded by Dewey Boulevard, Woodside, Portola, and Kensington. Within those borders, you’ll find single-family homes — and not even one condominium or multi-unit building. Homes here are about 25% smaller than the homes in Forest Hill itself, but they’re still over 2,000 square feet on average. Developed starting in the 1910s, Forest Hill Extension is an upscale enclave of detached single-family homes, many set back from the street so there’s green space on every block. There’s easy access to transit, with several bus lines as well as the Forest Hill and West Portal Muni stations nearby. A rare urban treat: Edgehill Mountain Park, established after multiple mudslides wiped out houses on the west slope of the hill.

Neighborhood Vibe

Compared to its namesake neighborhood (Forest Hill) just across Dewey Boulevard, Forest Hill is slightly less grand. As a rule, the homes are smaller, but smaller doesn’t mean less desirable. Forest Hill Extension is an upscale area of single-family homes, surrounded by busy streets as well as Laguna Honda Hospital and Juvenile Hall.

Popular Home Styles

“Forest Hill Extension” translates to “single-family home” when you run it through the real estate dictionary. We don’t know of even one condominium within the borders of this neighborhood.  Spanish Mediterranean homes grace the streets of Forest Hill Extension, with some bungalows and Craftsman style homes as well.

Getting Around

Several bus lines serve the neighborhood, and the West Portal and Forest Hill Muni stations are nearby for those who don’t mind walking a few blocks. Drivers who commute to the South Bay have relatively easy access to 280 through Glen Park. Driving across town to the Bay Bridge requires patience in traffic.

    Forest Hill Extension Market Stats

    Median Sales Price

    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

    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.

    Number of Active Listings

    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.

    Sales Price Compared to List Price

    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

    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.

    Forest Hill Extension FAQs

    Where is Forest Hill Extension?

    Forest Hill Extension is a neighborhood in west-central San Francisco. It is bordered by Forest Hill and West Portal to the west, Midtown Terrace to the north, and Miraloma Park to the east and south. On an SFAR (San Francisco Association of Realtors) MLS map, Forest Hill Extension is identified as neighborhood 4j.

    Are there any notable historical landmarks or sites in the Forest Hill Extension?

    Though the homes and lots here are slightly smaller, they are no less beautiful than the ones in neighboring Forest Hill, across Dewey Boulevard. The area was one of the city’s eight original residence parks, and broke ground in 1912. The master-planned residence parks were landscaped plots created to replicate the feeling of suburban living in close proximity to downtown San Francisco. You can still find many of the plan’s original neoclassical features including ornamental balustrades, urns, and artistic embellishments.

    How does the community vibe in the Forest Hill Extension contribute to its real estate appeal?

    Forest Hill Extension, sometimes referred to as Laguna Honda, is one of the city’s pure residential neighborhoods, with no commercial corridors. Instead, you’ll find a beautifully maintained area of upscale homes on lots big enough for gardens. It’s a perfect spot for walking, with vistas here and there of the ocean and the city’s southern corners. Great dining and shopping can be found nearby in West Portal, and downtown commuters enjoy the Forest Hill MUI station.

    Where can I find new construction in Forest Hill Extension?

    As an “already built” neighborhood, Forest Hill Extension 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.
