Living Around Mount Davidson

This cluster of prized residential enclaves rings the slopes of Mount Davidson, the highest natural point in San Francisco. Westwood Highlands sits on the southwest side, a planned neighborhood of well-kept Mediterranean and period homes; Sherwood Forest climbs the upper southern slope with large custom view homes on winding, wooded streets; and Mt. Davidson Manor lies to the west toward Ocean Avenue, with comfortable single-family homes on a friendly grid. Together they offer space, quiet, and some of the best views in the city.

The defining amenity is Mount Davidson Park itself — 40 wooded acres of trails crowned by the city’s tallest peak and its landmark cross. Daily shopping and dining are close in West Portal, Monterey Heights, and along Ocean Avenue.
