San Francisco - A special part of California

Everyone knows San Francisco: What a unique and wonderful place it is to live. Diverse economy, beautiful weather, great city ... amazing place to live.But the other amazing part of San Francisco is that you can have your choice of environment and culture in very close proximity.
Go North across the Golden Gate Bridge and you find yourself in picturesque Sausalito with beautiful Marinas. You can be a cliff dweller in a luxury condo or live on a houseboat. Marin County is the home of Lucas' Industrial Light and Magic. Napa Wine Country is just a short drive through pastoral settings. Home prices are reasonable.
Go South to the Peninsula and you will experience temperature changes. It is said that there is one degree increase in temperature for every mile that you travel south. So there literally can be 40 degrees temperature difference between San Francisco and San Jose.The Peninsula offers all price ranges and all economic strata from affordable homes in South San Francisco and Daly City to luxury homes in Hillsboro. Mid-range homes with excellent school districts can be found in San Mateo, Burlingame, Millbrae, San Carlos, Belmont and Redwood City.We have created communities called Foster City and Redwood Shores which inspire with their lagoons and inland waterways.
Still in San Mateo County, you can venture to the Coastside... only 7 miles from Hwy 280 you will find the Pacific Ocean. But not only beaches, but agriculture where you will find the famous giant pumpkins and many pumpkin farms, Christmas tree farms and fields of artichokes and brussel sprouts. A little south you will find the equestrian community of Woodside, the elite community of Atherton with its sprawling estates and the collegial towns of Palo Alto and Menlo Park.All of these lovely cities and towns are within 30 - 45 minutes of San Francisco. This is why this area is so popular and why our median county price is $600,000 A great place to live.
