Neighborhood
675-677 Ivy sits just one block from iconic Hayes Street - in the heart of Hayes Valley.
Hayes Valley is one of San Francisco’s most stylish and vibrant neighborhoods, blending a lively European-style street scene with a distinctly local flavor. Centered around leafy Patricia’s Green—a small park that doubles as a community gathering spot—it’s a hub for boutique shopping, destination dining, and the arts. Hayes Street is lined with chic storefronts offering everything from designer fashion and home décor to bookshops and artisan goods. The restaurant scene is exceptional: Rich Table serves inventive California cuisine perfect for a special night out, Absinthe Brasserie is a go-to for pre-Opera cocktails and French-inspired fare, and Suppenküche’s communal tables and hearty German dishes never disappoint. On a sunny day, treat yourself to creamy, churned-to-order ice cream from Smitten, and a smooth espresso from Ritual or Blue Bottle, then settle onto a park bench to watch the neighborhood’s street life unfold. Hayes Valley is also a cultural powerhouse, home to the SF Jazz Center, San Francisco Conservatory of Music, and is just steps of Davies Symphony Hall, the Opera, and the Ballet. With its walkable streets, excellent public transit, bike-friendly avenues, and proximity to the city’s cultural heart, Hayes Valley offers a rare mix of sophistication, community, and convenience—making it one of San Francisco’s most coveted places to call home.
