Location: 381 Magellan Avenue, San Francisco, CA 94116
Architect: Bernard Maybeck
Constructed: 1919
Set in a lush garden under towering redwood trees the historic Forest Hill Clubhouse is the center of the Forest Hill community. It was designed in 1919 by Bernard Maybeck in collaboration with a former Forest Hill client and was built principally by the members of the association on weekends.
The clubhouse's exterior reflects the style of an English country home, and the interior opens up to a beamed cathedral ceiling which rises above natural redwood walls and a large fireplace.
Listed as a significant building and grounds by numerous San Francisco architectural books, it continues to be loved and maintained by the Forest Hill residents.
The Clubhouse has long been home to the Forest Hill Association and the Forest Hill Garden Club. It also hosts the regular meeting of several civic organizations. It may be rented by the residents and guests for parties, weddings, and private events. Recently, Musical Days in Forest Hill has also enjoyed this rich venue.
