Few sales, weak data. Estudillo Estates had only 23 single-family sales in the last 12 months. Too little data means the numbers are weak, and weak numbers can misrepresent the market: one or two homes can swing every chart on this page. Read them as a rough guide, not a firm picture.

These numbers count single-family homes only. Condos, townhouses and attached homes are left out. They are the single-family homes that closed in Estudillo Estates, from the MLS. A neighborhood this size can swing from one quarter to the next on a handful of sales, so these show where the market has been, not what your home will sell for. When doing neighborhood stats, it is imperative to use the correct boundaries, as overlapping into adjacent neighborhoods may skew results. These numbers cover only homes the MLS lists under Estudillo Estates. Want the numbers for your street? Ask Tanja.

Living in Estudillo Estates
What it is like on the ground in Estudillo Estates: getting around, errands, nature and schools, from Local Logic.
Where does the name come from?
The name goes back to José Joaquín Estudillo, who received Rancho San Leandro, about 9,000 acres south of San Leandro Creek, in 1842. Beginning in 1855, two of his sons-in-law, John B. Ward and William Heath Davis, laid out the townsite that became San Leandro, with the creek as its northern edge.
Estudillo's own home stood on West Estudillo Avenue. Built in 1850, it was a two-story house with 14 bedrooms, a wine cellar, and servants' quarters. It was torn down in 1948, and the City's History Walk marks the spot today. Estudillo Avenue, which crosses the city, carries the family name too.
When was Estudillo Estates built?
Neighborhood histories date Estudillo Estates to the mid-1920s, and most of its homes went up in the 1920s and 1930s, with some later homes mixed in. The City of San Leandro's General Plan names Estudillo Estates, along with Broadmoor, among the city's early-twentieth-century neighborhoods, describing California bungalows, Craftsman and Prairie-style homes, and Mediterranean-style cottages.
The same plan notes that some of these neighborhoods carry ideas from the City Beautiful movement of the early 1900s: winding streets, gracious street trees, and large front lawns. About 3,700 San Leandro homes were built before World War II, and the City says they are concentrated in the northeast part of town, which is where Estudillo Estates sits.
What kind of homes are in Estudillo Estates?
Tudor, Mediterranean, Spanish-style stucco, Colonial, and Craftsman homes stand side by side here, many on generous lots with established front yards, mature trees, and fruit trees in some backyards. Because the neighborhood filled in over two decades and more, one block can hold several styles, and a few later homes sit among the originals. For buyers who want a home with real period character, that variety is the main draw.
What should you look for in an Estudillo Estates home? A home that is close to 100 years old comes with old-home issues, so read the inspection reports closely. Electrical panels and knob and tube wiring in older homes may not have been updated, or fully updated, so ask what has been done and when. On lots near the creek, pay attention to drainage and how water moves across the yard.
What schools are near Estudillo Estates?
Bancroft Middle School on Bancroft Avenue and Roosevelt Elementary School on Dowling Boulevard are the closest public schools, both in the San Leandro Unified School District. San Leandro High School is a short drive south on Bancroft Avenue, and Assumption School, a private school for kindergarten through grade 8, is on 136th Avenue. School boundaries don't follow neighborhood names, so check the district's boundary map for any address you're considering. The San Leandro page lists the public and private schools across the city.
What is nearby?
Downtown San Leandro, along East 14th Street, is a short drive or bike ride away, with shops, restaurants, and the Daniel Best Building's clock marking the center of town. Casa Peralta, the city's historic house museum on West Estudillo Avenue, is close by, and so is Broadmoor next door. Lake Chabot Regional Park, with its lake and miles of trails, is a short drive into the hills.
How do you get around from Estudillo Estates?
Interstate 580 runs along the north end of San Leandro, and Interstate 880 is on the other side of downtown. The Downtown San Leandro BART station is a short drive away, and AC Transit buses run along East 14th Street.
What should sellers in Estudillo Estates know?
San Leandro has its own transfer tax, 1.1% of the sale, on top of Alameda County's. The City of San Leandro does not require a sewer lateral certificate at sale for the properties it serves, but parts of San Leandro are served by the Oro Loma Sanitary District, which since August 1, 2026 requires one before title transfers. It's worth checking which agency serves the address before listing. My San Leandro home selling page explains the steps.
What draws buyers to Estudillo Estates?
Buyers who look at Estudillo Estates are usually drawn to its 1920s and 1930s architecture, its tree-lined streets, the creek running through the neighborhood, and its short trip to downtown San Leandro and Interstate 580.
Why do homeowners sell in Estudillo Estates?
