Diamond Heights

Neighborhood Overview

Diamond Heights

Diamond Heights is located in the center of San Francisco, bordered generally by Noe Valley and Glen Canyon Park. The San Francisco Planning and Urban Research Association's first project was Diamond Heights, with the intent to develop with, rather than against, the topography. Diamond Heights is home to the George Christopher Playground, Walter Haas Playground is nearby. Here you will find sunshine and scenic views of both the bay and the ocean. Developer Joseph Eichler's first launch into urban development was in Diamond Heights in the early 60s. Eichler created seven distinct home designs with features such as in-floor radiant heat, floor-to-ceiling windows, tongue and groove ceilings and courtyards wherever the topography allowed. Many of these homes are still occupied by their original owners, and pride of ownership is readily apparent. Shopping and restaurants are located at the Diamond Heights Shopping Center and in nearby Noe Valley.

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?)
