Charming single-family homes on streets that made sense before the University of San Francisco left its footprint on the neighborhood. The most charming circular street you’ll ever meet (hello, Ewing Terrace). Discontiguous streets and student life just north of the North Panhandle.

Lone Mountain Neighborhood Vibe
Anchored by the University of San Francisco campus, Lone Mountain has a relatively small number of homes for the size of the area bounded by Geary, Arguello, Fulton, and Masonic. There’s no commercial center within the boundaries, but just outside is the shopping center on Geary @ Masonic. You’ll find plenty of one-block-long streets, bounded on either end by the campus.
Popular Lone Mountain Home Styles
Single-family homes built between the 1920s and 1940s are the most common construction in Lone Mountain. Lots are mostly a very SF-standard 25′ wide.
Getting Around in Lone Mountain
It’s pretty easy to have a car living in Lone Mountain (most homes were built with garages), but for those who rely on public transportation, there are plenty of buses to choose from. Masonic and Geary provide shopping, eating, and grocery-procuring options that are accessible by foot for daily errands.

Median sales price is calculated based on sold data and doesn’t account for seller concessions. Median price represents the point at which half of the homes sold for more and half sold for less. In smaller neighborhoods like many of those found in San Francisco, this metric is less likely to be influenced by extremely high or low sales prices that don’t represent the typical neighborhood home.
Days on Market indicates how quickly or slowly homes are selling in the neighborhood. The lower the days on market (DOM), the stronger the market is for sellers, all other things being equal.
The number of homes available for sale in active status at the end of a given month. Fewer homes available for sale may indicate a seasonal trend or market dynamics that favor a seller more than a buyer.
In strong or balanced markets, homes in San Francisco typically sell over asking. In a buyer’s market, homes will sell at list price or slightly under. If a home has had price reductions, the calculation is based on the last listed price.
Price per square foot is most useful when the homes are almost identical in size, age, layout and other factors important to buyers. Our experience suggests it is a more valuable metric in larger condo buildings and less valuable for homes in neighborhoods built with a diverse selection of styles, sizes, and ages.

Lone Mountain is a neighborhood in the northwestern part of San Francisco. It is bordered by the Inner Richmond to the west, Laurel Heights and Jordan Park to the north, Anza Vista and North Panhandle to the east, and North Panhandle and Golden Gate Park to the south. On an SFAR (San Francisco Association of Realtors) MLS (add internal link) map, Lone Mountain is identified as neighborhood 1g.
As its name suggests, Lone Mountain is located on one of San Francisco’s famous and historical hills, roughly equidistant from the Pacific Ocean and the San Francisco Bay. Lone Mountain is home to the campus for University of San Francisco, formerly known as the San Francisco College for Women, established in 1932 by the Religious of the Sacred Heart convent. It was also the former home of the Lone Mountain Cemetery. The copper-domed Columbarium and Funeral Home, built in 1898 by architect Bernard J.S. Cahill, is an example of neoclassical architecture and joined the San Francisco Designated Landmarks in 1996.
Lone Mountain is visible from many spots in the city and offers sweeping vistas in every direction. The neighborhood is bordered by Geary Boulevard to the north, a major city and commercial thoroughfare, with a variety of shops, bars, restaurants, a Target, and small businesses. Lone Mountain also features the Angelo J. Rossi Playground and Rossi Pool, providing residents with easy access to public tennis and basketball courts, picnic areas, an indoor swimming pool, and a children’s playground.
With its notable university campus, great views, and good schools that include a French immersion preschool, Lone Mountain is a centrally located neighborhood and a great place for families to settle down. Lone Mountain offers a vibrant mix of families, single residents, University of San Francisco students, and tenured professors, in a neighborhood featuring Edwardian and some multi-residential homes.
As an “already built” neighborhood, Lone Mountain is not a neighborhood where you should expect to find substantial new construction projects. Smaller developers may renovate/flip existing single family properties, or may take advantage of recent housing laws to add additional units to already existing housing. Transit corridors and major neighborhood streets are the most likely areas for new construction buildings in already built neighborhoods with existing housing stock.
