Cole Valley is a hidden gem that represents the heart of San Francisco. Located smack dab in the middle of the city, this family-friendly neighborhood feels just like that: a neighborhood. The small community is nestled between Mount Sutro, Golden Gate Park, and the Haight district, with easy access on public transportation to both Ocean Beach and Downtown. In Cole Valley, you don't have to sacrifice city life for tranquility- you can have the best of both worlds. The neighborhood feels like a small town, with friendly neighbors, bustling cafes, and an old-school market that is keen on starting tabs for residents. However, the Haight district and the Sunset assure that everything San Francisco has to offer is right at your fingertips. In just a short walk or bus ride, you can find a variety of delicious restaurants, bustling bars, shops, and art galleries, as well as hiking, biking and running trails. This neighborhood is one of a kind in San Francisco- it won't stay hidden for long!
Cole valley is a wonderful mix of quiet community with a dusting of commercialism. You have historic Kezar Staduim, first home of the 49ers. UCSF hospital on the hill to learn and be cared for. Even a litany of small restaurants to dine and enjoy the beauty of the city. The streets are small, but generally quiet, while people walk (or run) to enjoy the wonderful days in Cole valley.
