The Forest Knolls neighborhood is also known for incredible views from many of the houses. Built in the 1950's and 1960's by Standard Building Company, the winding streets consist of only fully detached single family homes. Some residences, including 189 Crestmont, are positioned to capture the very best vistas of San Francisco from South to West to North! See incredible sunsets, views of the Pacific Ocean, Golden Gate Park, and even the Marin headlands from this vantage point!
