A remnant of the Howard Estate, San Mateo Park was founded in 1896, when architect and landscape designers; George Howard, Jr. and John McLaren, designer of Golden Gate Park, crafted this upscale community in the, City Beautiful Movement laid out gently winding streets, over a rolling terrain with 62 landscaped circles, medians and crescents at intersections randomly placed throughout this deed restricted community. The Park, as San Mateo Park is affectionately called by residents, is now a virtual arboretum neighborhood where residents walk, and where children ride their bicycles along the quiet streets with the character which makes San Mateo Park so desirable. Close to culinary dining delights in downtown San Mateo, the heart of the Bay Area, Silicon Valley, Biotech and the San Francisco digital domain. Owner pays for gardener.
