How Much Homes Cost

When you discover Half Moon Bay, you'll see that homes are special too. Our homes are designed to take advantage of views of the ocean, the mountains, the golf courses and forests. Our architecture is as different as our terrain. We have a home to fit your lifestyle.

We also have a community to meet your needs.

If you want an ocean view home, you can have it. If you want horse property, several towns allow it. You can live on a golf course or you can buy large parcels of land.
