Sea Cliff
Sea Cliff is one of the City’s true residential districts, and home to some of San Francisco’s most striking single family homes. There is no commercial area or nightlife to speak of, affording the neighborhood a quiet, private air that suits its affluent residents just fine. In fact, several big names have opted to call this area home over the years, including actor Sharon Stone, Gap founder Don Fisher and comics Cheech Marin and Robin Williams. With a name that aptly describes its location, Sea Cliff tantalizes home buyers with incredible views of the Pacific, Marin Headlands and the Golden Gate Bridge. It is very near some of our most notable outdoor attractions, including Lincoln Park, which houses both a golf course and the California Palace of the Legion of Honor; and the sprawling Presidio of San Francisco, a National Park offering endless recreational opportunities. Sea Cliff dwellers also enjoy easy access to the Golden Gate Bridge. Bike lanes running along Lake Street lead avid cyclers north across the Bridge into the hills of Marin County. Nearby China Beach is a favorite among locals; this windswept slice of sand offers breathtaking sunset and bridge views. Access Land’s End trail from the beach for a truly epic, though only moderately difficult, 3.5 mile hike along San Francisco’s ruggedly gorgeous coastline. This is a wild side of San Francisco people rarely think about, and it is a treasure. Also nearby is Baker Beach, which is infamously popular with nude sunbathers. When it comes time to shop, dine or enjoy a low key night out, the Clement and California Street business districts are a short drive or lovely walk away.
