Mission Terrace / Balboa Park

Mission Terrace/Balboa Park blends small-town warmth with city convenience on San Francisco’s sunny southeast side. Tree-lined blocks of classic single-family homes—many with garages and yards—sit moments from Balboa Park’s athletic fields, pool, playgrounds, and trails. Quick commutes are a hallmark: walk to Balboa Park BART/Muni, hop on I-280, or connect to tech shuttles in minutes. Nearby City College and the Ocean Avenue corridor add cafés, markets, and everyday essentials, while Mission Street brings neighborhood eateries and local shops. Residents love the easy parking, wider streets, and an inclusive, family-friendly vibe with long-time owners and new buyers alike.

Balanced and practical, the area offers value, sun, and space without sacrificing access. Weekend routines might include a park workout, coffee on Ocean Ave, and errands along Mission. With reliable transit, solid community roots, and steady housing stock, Mission Terrace/Balboa Park delivers relaxed living with true San Francisco connectivity.
