1990 S El Camino Real, San Mateo
Marketing Description
Introducing a premier residential and retail development opportunity at 1990 South El Camino Real, perfectly situated in the heart of the San Francisco Peninsula. This project represents a sophisticated “in-fill” transformation, replacing an underutilized site with a modern, high-density mixed-use community designed to meet the extreme housing and lifestyle demands of San Mateo.
Entitlement Status & Progress
The project is currently in the advanced stages of the entitlement process. The formal application has been submitted for plan review and hearing, marking a significant milestone in the development timeline. This progress offers a developer the opportunity to step into a project with clear momentum and a defined path toward groundbreaking.
Approved Mixed-Use Vision
The project is designed as a pedestrian-oriented development that integrates luxury residential living with neighborhood-scale retail:
Residential Density: Forty-three (43) residential units located on the upper floors, featuring a high-demand unit mix:
- 9 One-Bedroom Units
- 30 Two-Bedroom Units
- 4 Three-Bedroom Units
Commercial Activation: Three (3) ground-floor commercial retail spaces oriented toward South El Camino Real, specifically designed to activate the street frontage and support neighborhood-serving businesses.
Subterranean Infrastructure: Thirty-eight (38) on-site parking stalls located within a basement-level garage. By placing parking below grade, the project enhances the streetscape character and prioritizes a clean, urban aesthetic.
Transit-Oriented & Lifestyle Focused
- Hillsdale Lifestyle Hub: Located just moments from the Hillsdale Shopping Center, providing immediate access to world-class retail, luxury dining, and entertainment.
- Public Transit Access: Walking distance to Caltrain, offering a rapid and seamless commute to both Silicon Valley and Downtown San Francisco.
- Connectivity: Strategic positioning with immediate access to Highway 92 and US-101, bridging the gap between the East Bay and the Peninsula.
