More Insights
Built in 1925 (100 years old).
Condition: The property was built in 1925, indicating an older structure. While the exterior appears maintained, the visible kitchen features dated wood cabinets, basic white square tile backsplash, and older white appliances, suggesting a renovation that likely occurred 15-25 years ago. This aligns with the 'Fair' criteria of a property built over 20 years ago but renovated between 15 to 30 years ago, where major components are functional but show signs of being outdated. Without images of bathrooms or other key systems, it's assumed they are of a similar vintage or condition, requiring minor updates to meet current standards.

Pros & Cons
Pros
Great Schools: Elementary School: Chinese Immersion School At Deavila (9/10). Middle School: Lilienthal (Claire) Elementary School (9/10). High School: Lowell High School (10/10).
Prime Location: The property boasts an excellent location in the highly desirable Sunset district of San Francisco, offering convenient access to local amenities and attractions.
Income Potential & Flexibility: The presence of two additional units downstairs (a 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom and a 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom) provides significant rental income potential or flexible multi-generational living arrangements.
Fully Detached Structure: Being fully detached, the property offers enhanced privacy, abundant natural light from all sides, and reduced noise compared to attached homes common in the city.
Generous Lot Size: With a 3600 sqft lot, the property provides valuable outdoor space, which is a premium in San Francisco, and potential for future landscaping or expansion (subject to zoning).
Access to Highly-Rated Schools: The property is located near several highly-rated public schools, including Lawton Alternative Elementary (9/10) and George Washington High School (7/10), making it attractive for families.
Cons
Age of Property & Systems: Built in 1925, the property may have outdated infrastructure (plumbing, electrical, heating) and could require significant investment in renovations or deferred maintenance to meet modern standards.
Legal Status of Downstairs Units: The description mentions 'Two units downstairs' while the property is listed as a 'Single Family Residence,' which could indicate unpermitted units, potentially leading to zoning, legal, financing, or insurance complications.
Compact Unit Sizes: With 1809 sqft accommodating a 3-bedroom unit upstairs and two additional units downstairs (2-bed and 1-bed), the individual living spaces are likely quite compact, which might limit appeal for some tenants or buyers seeking more spacious accommodations.
