Neighborhood

Shoreline West provides a top-notch Mountain View experience. This central neighborhood provides all that residents love about the area: scenic views, characterful apartments and homes, and an active community. The well-manicured streets of Shoreline West play host to bicyclists, joggers, and anyone just enjoying the climate of this Silicon Valley suburb. Amazing views of the San Francisco Bay can be seen from the highest streets, but the influence of the Bay Area can be felt all over.

Shopping and dining options abound along El Camino Real and Castro Street, and there are plenty of local parks within walking distance. Palo Alto and Stanford University are just a 10-minute drive northwest via the 101, with San Francisco another 30 minutes past that.
