Ingleside Terraces is a sought-after suburb in southwest San Francisco

Ingleside Terraces is a residential neighborhood in southwest San Francisco built on the former Ingleside Racetrack site. Residential development began in 1912, complete with curving streets and a central sundial that still anchors the neighborhood. Unlike many parts of the city shaped by incremental growth, Ingleside Terraces was built out all at once and has changed slowly since.

Homes in Ingleside Terraces and how much they cost

There are roughly 750 homes in the neighborhood, most dating from the original early-20th century development. Lots are larger than average for San Francisco, and homes often have relatively large yards, reflecting the area’s planning ideals. “I freaking love this neighborhood,” says veteran real estate agent Amanda Jones of Compass, who has worked in the area for over 20 years. “You’re going to get lots that are probably two to three times the size of most lots in town, and there are beautiful homes in a range of styles: Craftsman, Mediterranean, Tudor, half-timbered. You can find them all here.” Streets such as Urbano Drive follow the curve of the old racetrack, giving parts of the neighborhood a distinctive layout compared with the city grid. Homes usually sell for between $1.5 million and $3.5 million.

The Ingleside Sundial and nearby parks offer a bit of green space

Ingleside Terraces centers around the small but artfully maintained Entrada Court, which is home to the Ingleside Sundial — at the time of its construction, the largest sundial in the world. Nearby, Aptos Park offers a modern playground and athletic fields. It’s also only a mile to Stern Grove, a popular linear park with rolling meadows, leafy greenery, walking paths and a wooded, outdoor amphitheater. “It’s very runner friendly,” says Realtor Daniel Risman Jones, cofounder of Ascend Real Estate. "There’s lots of wooded space, a pond and an off-leash dog park. It’s great for families looking for outdoor space.”

Close to public transit and major thoroughfares

  • Ocean Avenue runs by the neighborhood, and is served by the K Ingleside Muni Metro line
  • Several Muni bus routes also run along Ocean Avenue and nearby roads
  • For drivers, 19th Avenue and Interstate 280 are close, making trips to the peninsula and South Bay relatively direct
  • It’s a quick 10-mile drive to San Francisco International Airport
