Bathrooms boast sleek vanities, wall-mounted faucets, and tiled showers with glass enclosures. Throughout the home, there's consistent hardwood flooring, recessed lighting, and a fresh, modern aesthetic. Key systems like the water heater (tankless) and furnace appear updated, and the electrical panel is modern. The property presents as virtually new inside, with no deferred maintenance visible.

Age-Related Maintenance Considerations: Built in 1926, the property, while charming, may present potential future maintenance or upgrade needs for older systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, roof, foundation) not explicitly detailed as updated.
Limited Bedroom Count: With only two bedrooms, the property may not accommodate larger families or those requiring additional dedicated rooms for specific purposes, such as multiple home offices or children's rooms.
Lack of Dedicated Parking: The property description does not mention any dedicated parking, which can be a significant challenge and a highly valued amenity in a dense urban area like San Francisco.
