About the Neighborhood

MIDTOWN TERRACE

 

Living in Midtown Terrace means tucking into one of San Francisco’s best-kept secrets, a planned mid-century enclave perched on the western slope of Twin Peaks at the geographic center of the city. Built in the 1950s on terraced streets cut into the hillside, the neighborhood was designed around its views, with utilities run underground and homes set to capture the elevation. Street names like Cityview, Skyview, and Panorama tell you exactly what to expect.

Within its boundaries, Midtown Terrace is purely residential, a serene reprieve from the pace of the city, yet just over the hill from West Portal, Cole Valley, and Noe Valley. Twin Peaks itself shelters the neighborhood from the coastal fog, gifting it a sunnier microclimate than its neighbors. Hiking trails up Twin Peaks, Mt. Sutro, and Glen Canyon Park begin steps from the door, and Mollie Stone’s at the historic Tower Market anchors Portola Drive for everyday shopping. Serene, sun-filled, and centrally located, Midtown Terrace is San Francisco’s hidden gem hiding in plain sight.

"Our initial consultation was one of the most memorable discussions we’ve had with someone in the business. She demonstrated through examples how creative, solutions-oriented and innovative her approach was; notably how her team adapted to the covid-19 environment through novel and personal marketing and attention to detail via virtual experiences. Other Realtors offered us a lower rate but we believe we got the quality and caliber we paid for."
N.O., Seller
"Ruth is a down-to-earth, friendly pit bull who represented us well and never let her guard down. She prepared us, protected us, and positioned us for what could not have been a more successful sale."
J.R., Seller
"In this very tough market, she got my family into a fantastic home. I was getting ready to walk away from the SF market altogether, because I just didn't think we could find what we wanted in a home at a price we could pay. Ruth is an absolute pro and helped us get the house we wanted. Ruth is a master real estate agent and the one you want in San Francisco."
H.H & A.P., Buyer
"In such a competitive market we needed an edge to get the home we wanted and we found that with Ruth and her team. She is down to earth, very personable and a master negotiator. She is honest, understanding, and not just out to make the sale."
R.M., Buyer
"Ruth was quick to assess our needs, the property needs, and the San Francisco market needs. She considered the property thoughtfully as she made recommendations for any renovations or work required. Her experience and knowledge as an interior designer is an asset. She creatively played with the space to increase its marketability and our home was beautifully displayed. We were pleased with the amount of offers and felt that Ruth's knowledge attributed to our success."
