Claremont/Uplands is the pinnacle of upscale California living. Nestled in beautifully wooded hills just 12 miles from San Francisco and a few minutes from busy College Avenue, this historic area is characterized by stately homes, tree-lined streets and hidden pathways.
The area’s best-known landmark is the world-renowned
Claremont Club & Spa. Originally the site of an English-style castle, the hotel opened in 1915 as a fog-free retreat for wealthy San Franciscans. Those seeking the good life are still drawn to this area. Two upscale shopping areas serve local residents with specialty stores.
Claremont/Uplands real estate includes a range of architectural styles, including English and shingled cottages and prairie spreads. Custom-designed residences are equally as popular, with numerous contemporary dwellings and magnificent Italian- and Spanish-style revivals to choose from. These impressive residences are often accompanied by equally wonderful gardens, adding even more allure to this picturesque area.
