About This Home

Set on the top floor of a classic Edwardian building less than a block from Alamo Square, this sun-filled one-bedroom + office has been thoughtfully updated for modern living while keeping its 1920s charm intact. An oversized combined living and dining space anchors the property, framed by a bay window with sweeping westerly views over the neighborhood skyline. A spacious bedroom offers a walk-in closet with custom built-ins, doors that connect to the main living area enhancing natural light flowing into the bedroom space, and a gorgeous ceiling medallion that harks back to its century+ old origins. A bright home office off the main living area, also with west-facing views, is ideal for remote work. And the recently-refreshed kitchen is outfitted with stainless steel appliances, new stone countertops and ample cabinet space, perfect for the home chef. Other comforts include a second walk-in closet in the hallway for additional coveted storage, 1-car garage parking, garage storage, shared laundry, and access to a beautifully landscaped shared rear yard. Ideally located next to Alamo Square Park, and just blocks from the Haight, Hayes, Duboce, and NoPa with easy access to cafes, restaurants, shopping, and transit.
