3021 Glendale Ave Redwood City
This three-bedroom, two-bath residence on Glendale Avenue occupies 1,260 square feet in a Redwood City neighborhood known for its walkability and midcentury stock. The home sits within a grid of tree-lined streets a short distance from Friendship Park and Linden Park, both anchors of daily life here. At just over a quarter-acre, the lot offers room that has become less common at this price point on the Peninsula. The address places residents within a ten-minute walk of Garfield Elementary and a network of local cafés and markets that define the area's footprint.
Redwood City's central neighborhoods carry a practical ease. The Walk Score of 81 reflects proximity to Safeway, Mi Rancho Market, and a handful of cafés including Starbucks and Loop Neighborhood Market. Garfield Community School, Synapse School, and The Riekes Center anchor the educational landscape, while nearby parks—Linden, Friendship, Fair Oaks—serve as gathering points. Commutes run 22 minutes by car to San Francisco International Airport and 32 minutes to Sunnyvale or Daly City. Public transit reaches SFO in 52 minutes. The location offers midpoint access to Silicon Valley and the city without the premium of either.
The local market shows a median sale price of $2,175,000 and a median list price of $1,548,750, with sold homes averaging $1,256 per square foot and ten days on market. Active listings cluster between $1,050,000 and $1,298,500, reflecting varied square footage and condition. Recent comparables span $1,098 to $1,514 per square foot, underscoring the role of updates and lot size in pricing. Properties in move-in condition have moved quickly; those requiring work have taken longer to find buyers at revised terms.

Walk Score® rates an address from 0–100 by how easily everyday errands — groceries, coffee, dining, school pickup — can be done on foot. 50+ means some errands can be walked, 70+ means most can, and 90+ is a rare walker's paradise. Transit and Bike scores read the same way for public transportation and cycling.
Ratings are GreatSchools Summary Ratings on a 1–10 scale, based on test scores, student progress, and college readiness — 8–10 is above average, 5–7 average, 1–4 below average. Schools shown are the closest rated options within five miles. Attendance boundaries change; always verify enrollment eligibility directly with the school district.
As a longtime resident of Los Altos Hills, I have had the privilege of raising my children and watching them grow through Palo Alto public schools, and later at Woodside Priorya private school in Portola Valley. Our family has loved the peaceful and calmness of the hills, the hiking trails, and its close proximity to Silicon Valley and San Francisco.
Through the years, I’ve navigated our community extensively, driving my kids to activities across neighboring towns for various activities which has given me extensive knowledge and familiarity in Atherton, Menlo Park, Palo Alto, Portola Valley and Los Altos and beyond. This experience has given me an intimate knowledge of the area and a deep appreciation for the vibrant lifestyle it offers.
Some of my favorite local spots include Los Altos Grill or Evvia for a night out, Satura or Mademoiselle Colette for a morning coffee and croissant, and Terun for a lunch meet up. For fitness, I love the small, intense classes at barre3 or MPX Pilates, and for outdoor relaxation, I enjoy a quick hike at Arastradero Preserve. When it comes to self-care, No Filter Brazilian MedSpa in San Mateo is a personal favorite.
