Elevator pitch:
Calistoga is the single-family home subdivision in San Elijo Hills that is closest to school. This subdivision is literally across the street from the San Elijo Elementary and
Middle Schools. If being close enough to school is important and you can get by living in a home under 2,400sf, this may be the spot. A bonus it that San Elijo
Hills largest community garden is just steps away from Calistoga Way.
