Hillsborough
A quiet, secluded community in the heart of the Peninsula known for its lovely, winding streets, understated elegance and excellent schools.
Real Estate Market Trends
The town's unique character is defined by its no commercial zoning law and the prevalence of larger homes and lots, with a minimum square footage requirement of 2,500 and a minimum lot size of half an acre. Hillsborough has only single family homes. Due to high demand and limited inventory, home prices tend to be significantly elevated, making it one of the most exclusive markets in the Bay Area.​
