Main Content

Artists, progressives, and urban sophisticates are naturally drawn to Bernal Heights’ warm and inviting atmosphere. This idyllic neighborhood provides a welcome break from the rhythms of San Francisco. The sunny climate, stunning views, and friendly people will make you feel right at home.

Surrounded by Noe Valley, Mission District, Portola, and Diamond Heights, this quiet enclave will captivate you with its offbeat charm and a dazzling array of specialty shops and restaurants.

Real Estate

The housing stock consists of single-family homes, multi-family homes, and condos. Victorian, Edwardian, and Mid-Century are the dominant architectural styles.

Most homes have one to three bedrooms, two to three bathrooms, and one or two-car garages. Plush master suites, custom cabinetry, and finished basements are common features.

Luxury homes are often decked out in high end designer finishes. It’s not unusual for these homes to have gourmet kitchens, spa-inspired bathrooms, and verdant outdoor space.

Residents enjoy efficient public transportation in the form of Muni streetcar lines and the BART. The San Francisco International (SFO) Airport is just a 20-minute cab ride from here.

Bernal Heights has one of the hottest real estate micro-climates in the country, but it is also perceived to be a balancing market where supply and demand for housing are expected to level off at some point – which is another reason to contact Jeff for his market expertise. In any case, it helps to have a seasoned real estate professional on your side. Call me, Jeff Salgado, at 415.939.1039, or send me an email at jeff(at)jeffsalgado(dotted)com.
