San Mateo Park

San Mateo Park is one of the most desirable neighborhoods in San Mateo.

Welcome to San Mateo Park

 
Exclusive and historic urban neighborhood.
 
San Mateo Park is an exclusive neighborhood within the city of San Mateo. San Mateo Park is bounded on three sides by the similarly prestigious community of Hillsborough, with Burlingame lying beyond Barroilhet Avenue at its northern boundary and El Camino Real separating it from the rest of San Mateo to the northeast. This historical community was planned in the style of the late 19th century’s “City Beautiful” movement, with spacious homes along with wide, tree-lined traffic circles fit for horse-drawn carriages. This verdant urban oasis enjoys immediate highway access and is within walking distance of Burlingame Avenue businesses and the Burlingame Caltrain station.

San Mateo Park’s diverse real estate mix features many elegant properties built in the early decades of the 20th century, along with a smaller number of post-war and contemporary homes. Architecture varies throughout the neighborhood, taking in grand Colonials, charming Craftsmen, and striking Spanish and Tudor Revival styles.

Standouts include Michelin-starred Indian restaurant Rasa, upscale Italian food at Stella Alpina Osteria, and European-style coffee and pastries at Caffe Central.

Things to Do

 
San Mateo’s sprawling Bayfront Coyote Point Recreation Area is less than three miles away from San Mateo Park. This recreation area has much to offer, including family-friendly activities at the Magic Mountain Playground, CuriOdyssey zoo and science museum, and occasional Movies in the Park. A saltwater marsh, waterfront promenade, and several picnic areas provide great spots for birdwatching or seeing the planes take off from nearby San Francisco International Airport. Coyote Point is also a fantastic place to get active, with biking and running trails as well as water-based activities on the Bay. The playground, picnic area, tennis courts, and Japanese garden of Central Park is the perfect place to spend a spring day. There are also many gyms, fitness centers, and yoga studios within walking distance.
