Candlestick Point

Neighborhood Overview

Candlestick Point

Candlestick Point is the neighborhood immediately adjacent to the Candlestick Point State Recreation area along the western shoreline, and surrounding Candlestick Park, home of the San Francisco 49ers. The area is developing, yet great efforts are being made to respect the natural environment. It is convenient to the 101 and 280 freeways, shopping and dining are nearby, and public transportation is readily available. Its name dates back to the 1800s when abandoned ships were burned in the harbor, resembling lighted candlesticks. Candlestick Point State Recreation is rife with spectacular views as well as outdoor activities, such as hiking, picnicking, fishing, windsurfing, bird watching and gardening in the Community Gardens.

The SF Inventory is Finally Arriving

Buyers and Realtors have been complaining about the lack of residential inventory in San Francisco since earlier this year. Indeed, it seems like buyers are fully engaged in our single-family home, condo and multi-unit offerings and have hit the market looking for property all at the same time. That means that for every cool house in a central location, there are 10-15 sets of buyers waiting to pounce.

Buyers Will Pay For "Done," Even in So-So Locations

Despite most San Francisco buyers' firm proclamation at the outset of their house hunt that they won't pay for someone else's renovation, many are doing just that. One trend that doesn't appear to be slowing is that of buyers snatching up fully renovated single-family homes---and paying dearly for them, even if the homes are not in prime locations within a given neighborhood. (Because not everyone can afford a newly renovated home in the heart of Noe Valley, right?)
