A 1910s residence park on the west side hills.
Forest Hill is one of San Francisco's master-planned residence parks. Laid out in the 1910s with a plan by landscape architect Mark Daniels, it has curving streets and mature trees and gardens.
Homes here span Arts and Crafts, Prairie, Edwardian, Neoclassical, Cotswold cottage, and California modern styles, sitting side by side and tied together by the landscaping. Several homes and the neighborhood clubhouse were designed by Bernard Maybeck, the architect behind the Palace of Fine Arts, and the clubhouse remains a registered local landmark.
The neighborhood is almost entirely single-family homes, with no commercial strip inside it. The nearest shops and restaurants are in West Portal village. The Forest Hill Association maintains the common areas.
The homes are older and the setting is hillside.
Forest Hill has its own underground Muni Metro station in the Twin Peaks Tunnel, with trains to downtown.
