In true San Francisco style, you'll find inviting homes in close proximity to parks and green spaces including Tank Hill, Grattan Playground, Sutro Forest, Buena Vista and Golden Gate Parks. 
Shop local on Cole Street. Grab delicious take out. Start your day at the not-so-secret neighborhood spots like La Boulangerie, Zazie or the take out window at Luke’s. Whether it’s a workout at Cole Valley gym, a run at Kezar Stadium, a game of pool at Finnegan’s Wake, a late night hike to the top of Tank Hill, two scoops at the Ice Cream Bar or a sidewalk table at Ino Vino, you don’t have to go far to enjoy La Dolce Vita.
Cole Valley is excellent for executives and researchers of the University of California, San Francisco. The UCSF Parnassus Heights campus is located less than half a mile from the neighborhood.
