Foster Square

Foster Square is a 200-unit 55+ condominium community built by Lennar in the heart of Foster City, California. Constructed between 2016 and 2020 and now sold out (resale only), the community is the age-restricted for-sale component of a larger 15-acre master-planned, mixed-use neighborhood that also includes Atria senior living (assisted and independent), MidPen-developed affordable senior apartments (Alma Point), and ground-floor retail with a U.S. Post Office, grocery store, restaurants, and neighborhood shops. The result is a walkable urban village where residents can handle daily errands without getting in the car — a rarity for Bay Area 55+ living. Homes are single-level condominiums housed in three mid-rise elevator buildings — Brixton, Avery, and Claremont. Floor plans range from 1,144 to 2,172 square feet with two or three bedrooms and two to two-and-a-half bathrooms. Every home includes Lennar's Everything's Included® package: quartz or granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, connected home automation, whole-home Wi-Fi, elegant primary suites, open kitchens, and private decks or balconies. Each unit comes with two assigned covered parking spaces and secured elevator access. The 55+ community is deliberately lock-and-leave in design, appealing to downsizers, Silicon Valley professionals easing into retirement, and buyers who want low-maintenance urban living without giving up the Peninsula. There is no traditional clubhouse or pool on-site — instead, residents tap into Foster Square's public plaza, a tennis court, basketball court, walking and biking paths, picnic areas, and the adjacent Leo J. Ryan Park and Foster City Lagoon. Next door, the Peninsula Jewish Community Center (PJCC) offers a full fitness center, pools, and programming. The Foster City Library, Recreation Center, and sports courts are all a short walk away. Social life is resident-driven. With just 200 units in a tight footprint, neighbors tend to know each other, and interest groups around tennis, basketball, biking, and walking form organically. The HOA, managed by The Helsing Group, oversees common areas, lobbies, building exteriors, grounds, and the interior lanes of the community. The Foster Square Homeowner Community (FSHOC) is a resident-led group that organizes events and social activities. Location is Foster Square's signature advantage. Foster City itself is a planned waterfront city built on a former Bay island, laced with lagoons, levee paths, and Bay Trail access. Residents are roughly 25 miles south of San Francisco, minutes from SFO, and a short drive to Silicon Valley employers, hospitals, and shopping centers like Bridgepointe and Hillsdale. This is a premium-priced community — median sale prices sit around $1.5M — reflecting both Lennar's construction quality and Foster City's status as one of the Peninsula's most sought-after addresses.
