Ladera

by Kimberly Legg

Born, Raised, and Selling Ladera!

When it comes to community, there are few places that rival Ladera. Originally developed in the mid 1940s, Ladera is now home to roughly 540 families. Ladera prides itself on its love of family and community, popular amongst young families, couples, single professionals, and empty nesters. Once you move to Ladera, it’s hard to leave, and many families stay through retirement.

Connected by a series of paths at the end of the many cul-de-sacs, Ladera residents enjoy walking to the Ladera Shopping Center as well as the Ladera Recreation District. The Ladera Recreation District offers amenities year round such as tennis, swimming, and exercise classes. The Ladera Dolphins, the summer swim team, is a community favorite for kids ages 4-18 with many of the swimmers graduating on to become lifeguards and swim coaches. Be sure to check out the 4th of July festivities including the famed Greased Watermelon Contest and the annual bakeoff! Once a month, the Ladera Crier is distributed to residents, highlighting news from the neighborhood.

Located in San Mateo County and situated on the border of Portola Valley, Ladera is within walking distance to Ford Field and the recently revamped Alpine Inn. Conveniently located near Highway 280, you are minutes to Webb Ranch, the dish, Menlo Park, Stanford, and Palo Alto. Acclaimed Las Lomitas School District and Menlo Atherton High School/Sequoia Union High School District.

Nearby highlights:

Ladera Garden & Gifts – Local nursery with a fantastic assortment of plants and high end gifts. Owners Juan and Mercedes will take care of all your gardening needs!

Bianchini’s Market – Local market with great selection of produce, meats, and cheeses. Pick up a sandwich from the deli or a salad for lunch.

Alpine Inn – Recently remodeled and formerly known as Rosotti’s (or as locals say, “Zotts”), this beer garden is your go to place for good burgers and brews.

Portola Kitchen – Come for a weekend brunch, stay for good wine, cocktails, and dinner.

Ladera Recreation District – Home of the Ladera Dolphins, Camp Ladera, swim and tennis lessons, and the famous Greased Watermelon Contest!

Webb Ranch – A family farm that offers a pumpkin patch during Halloween, Christmas trees in winter, seasonal U-Pick Berries, and horseback riding lessons. They also provide delicious produce to local farmers markets and grocery stores.
