Proximity to parks, room to roam, and the Pacific Ocean at your front door. Downtown is a quick (and probably crowded) L-Taraval ride away, and car commuters can hop on 19th Avenue to head south. Like its northern twin the Sunset, there’s more fog than on the east side of town, but that keeps things cool and comfy.

Parkside Neighborhood Vibe
Close to it all but not smack dab in the middle of it, the Parkside is predominantly residential with a sprinkling of commercial areas where it’s possible to grab a coffee or a beer, pick up some fresh produce, or enjoy a meal at your favorite neighborhood restaurant. Taraval is the commercial hub of the Parkside, which is bounded on the north and south by Ortega and Wawona/Sloat, and Sunset and 19th Ave. on the west and east.
Popular Parkside Home Styles
Single-family homes are at the top of the housing pyramid in the Parkside, with some condos and tenancies-in-common in the mix as well. The majority of the single-family homes are on 25’ wide lots, but there’s a section of this neighborhood with larger lots and fully detached homes. Most were built in the early 1900s through the 1940s, give or take a couple of decades.
Getting Around in the Parkside
Car commuters appreciate easy access to 19th Avenue and points south, and also to the north. The L-Taraval light rail runs through the neighborhood to the beach on the west side and to the Caltrain depot at 4th & King on the other side of town. Several muni bus lines also serve the neighborhood.

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.

Parkside is a neighborhood in the western part of San Francisco, and often considered to be part of the Sunset District. It’s located in the southern part of the Avenues south of Quintara and north of Sloat Boulevard. It is bordered by the Outer Sunset to the west, the Sunset District to the north, Inner Parkside to the east, and Merced Manor to the south. On an SFAR (San Francisco Association of Realtors) MLS (add internal link) map, Parkside is identified as neighborhood 2D.
In 1905, a group of investors developed a new residential “suburb” in San Francisco named Parkside, named after what is now known as Pine Lake Park. Initially 62 cottages were built and targeted to “working people.” and most still stand today. Before WWI, 120 Arts-and-Crafts-style houses were added to the district. During the 1920s and 30s, Period Revival facade treatments became Parkside’s dominant style.
True to its name, the district offers plenty of charming parks including Pine Lake Park, Stern Grove (and its well-known music festival) and McCoppin Square. Taraval Street is a bustling commercial corridor with scores of family-owned restaurants including the Dumpling Row section. Stonestown Galleria offers plenty of shopping, and the lively campus of San Francisco State University is also within walking distance. And don’t forget the bustling stretch of Ocean Beach, popular with picnickers, dog walkers, surfers, and even hang gliders, who take off from the nearby cliffs of Fort Funston.
Parkside offers an engaging combination of urban and suburban vibes. Most of its residents own their own homes, and the neighborhood draws families who seek a quiet, peaceful environment without having to sacrifice urban amenities.
Like many San Francisco neighborhoods, Parkside is essentially considered fully developed, although you may find the occasional re-development of existing structures. You can consult with planning and building department resources to check open and pending neighborhood permits and proposed developments (or just let your friendly Jackson Fuller Real Estate agent do it for you).
