Sea Cliff is a serene, upscale bluff-top neighborhood with grand mansions, sweeping views of the Pacific and Golden Gate, and lush, master-planned streets dating to 1913. Home to many notable figures, it’s quiet, architecturally rich, and stunningly beautiful.
Sea Cliff stands as one of San Francisco’s most exclusive and scenic enclaves. Perched on the northern bluffs of the city’s western shoreline, this affluent neighborhood was thoughtfully planned in 1913 as one of the city’s master-planned “residence parks,” designed by landscape architect Mark Daniels.
Its dramatic position overlooking the Pacific Ocean, Golden Gate Bridge, Marin Headlands, Baker Beach, and Lands End sets a breathtaking stage, where airy sea breezes and timeless natural panoramas meet architectural elegance. Sea Cliff’s streets are lined with grand mansions, some artistically integrated into the cliffs—including stunning Spanish-Mediterranean, Georgian, and Victorian designs by noted architects like Julia Morgan, Albert Farr, and Willis Polk.
Over the years, the neighborhood has drawn luminaries, from tech leaders and artists to actors. Notable past and present residents include Robin Williams, Sharon Stone, Eugene Levy, Cheech Marin, Jack Dorsey, and photographer Ansel Adams.
Sea Cliff remains exceptionally tranquil, defined by its privacy, manicured estates, and limited street access, a peaceful coastal retreat within the city.
