Woodside Glens is a charming neighborhood that feels much like a country hamlet but with the convenience of a modern town. It originated as a community of vacation cottages for wealthy San Franciscans who wanted to escape the cold dampness of the city. As was true then, the temperate climate remains a draw for buyers. In some cases, homes that have deferred maintenance are sold “as is” and can be snatched up for relative bargains, then renovated or rebuilt.  Because of the structural age and modest size of houses and lots, even homes in good condition are priced to offer buyers a comparably affordable entry into the Woodside market.

As its name suggests, Woodside Glens teems with natural beauty in the form of large redwood trees, a creek, and a gorgeous wildflower preserve. Although the neighborhood feels distinctly rural, it places residents close to schools and shopping. Many can walk or bike to the quaint Village of Woodside, where they can shop at Robert’s Market or dine at legendary Buck’s Restaurant. The Woodside Elementary School District is a distinguished benefit to the neighborhood, while the friendly, safe ambience and lack of traffic further establish Woodside Glens as an enticing haven for prospective buyers.
