San Francisco’s South Beach of today is a far cry from the South Beach of 25 years ago. Once South Beach was storage yards, warehouses, and crumbling piers. Today, gleaming glass towers and soulful conversion lofts have transformed it into one of the most desired destinations in San Francisco.
There are many desirable luxury condos springing up around the South Beach neighborhood that are quickly filling with new residents. You’ll find South Beach condos are centrally located, making them close to everything you could need, including access to public transportation. The South Beach neighborhood is close to the area’s largest job centers in South of Market (SOMA), Mission Bay and the Financial District. It is also home to Oracle Park, home field of the San Francisco Giants.
Residents can be assured that all of their needs will be met within the neighborhood. From shopping at The Metreon to buying groceries at the Safeway, browsing bookstores and having coffee at any of the many cafes, the neighborhood has all that you need. Dining options include neighborhood haunts like International Smoke, Thirsty Bear, and 21st Amendment. For a relaxing day at the museum, you can pay a visit to the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA).
South Beach is an eclectic mix of modern condominiums, lofts, and historic conversion lofts.
The uniquely designed South Park neighborhood park was once a fashionable residential community that was surrounded by mansions until it was destroyed in the 1906 San Francisco earthquake. Today, more than 100 years later, the area has revamped and re-invented itself.

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.
