11 Lilly ln, San Carlos
11 Lilly Lane occupies a hillside setting in San Carlos, where the topography rises toward Pulgas Ridge and the residential streets curve with the contours of the land. The address places the home in a car-dependent enclave—Walk Score 6—where daily errands require a vehicle and the rhythm of life is organized around the driveway rather than the sidewalk. Properties along Lilly Lane tend to enjoy elevation and a certain remove from the commercial corridor below, while remaining within a ten-minute drive of the San Carlos Caltrain station and the amenities that cluster along Laurel Street.
San Carlos maintains a low-key profile among Peninsula towns, characterized by postwar ranch homes, mature landscaping, and a public-school system that draws families intent on stability. Pulgas Ridge Open Space Preserve borders the western edge of the city, offering trail access and open sky. Vista Park, Crestview Park, and Pyrola Park serve the residential blocks. Commute times reflect the city's mid-Peninsula position: 50 minutes by car to downtown San Francisco, 16 minutes to Stanford University, and 21 minutes to San Francisco International Airport. The CalTrain corridor provides a transit spine, though the schedules favor San Francisco–bound riders.
- San Carlos public schools earn strong GreatSchools ratings—Heather Elementary (9/10), Mariposa (10/10), Tierra Linda Middle (10/10), and Carlmont High (10/10)—all within 1.3 miles.
- The Walk Score of 6 reflects a hillside location where grocery stores, cafés, and services require a car; transit options are limited outside the Caltrain line.
- Pulgas Ridge Open Space Preserve begins less than a mile west, offering 3,000 acres of watershed land, fire roads, and ridge trails managed by the Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District.
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.
