Condition Rating
Poor
Built in 1938 and explicitly marketed as a 'fixer' requiring 'extensive renovation,' this property is in poor condition. The age suggests outdated systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) and potential structural issues. While no interior photos are provided, the description indicates that all major components, including the kitchen and bathrooms, would need substantial repairs and rehabilitation to meet modern 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).
Significant Value-Add Potential: The property is explicitly marketed as a 'Prime San Francisco Investment or Renovation Opportunity' with 'room to expand' in the lower level and a 'partially finished basement', allowing for substantial equity building through upgrades and renovation.
Strategic Location in Developing Area: Situated in a 'rapidly developing neighborhood' (Bayview/Hunters Point) with 'easy access to public transit,' indicating potential for future appreciation and convenience.
Flexible Multi-Level Layout: The main level (3-bedroom, 2-bath) and lower level (additional living area with 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, living room, laundry, and bonus room) offer flexibility for multi-generational living, rental income, or dedicated work/guest spaces.
Desirable Outdoor Space & Parking: Features a 'sizable backyard' and a '1-car garage,' which are valuable amenities in a dense urban environment like San Francisco.
Competitive San Francisco Price Point: The description highlights it as a 'rare chance to add value... at this price point in San Francisco,' suggesting it's attractively priced for the market given its potential.
Cons
Low Available Lot Utilization: The property has a small lot size, more than 70 percent of which is taken by its living area. lot size in square feet = 2500, living area = 1874.
Extensive Renovation Required: Clearly stated as a 'fixer' needing 'upgrades, expansion, or full renovation,' implying significant time, effort, and financial investment for buyers.
Age of Property: Built in 1938, the home is likely to have outdated systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC), potential for structural issues, or require extensive modernization to meet current standards and preferences.
Mixed Local School Ratings: While some highly-rated schools are accessible, several closer public schools have lower ratings, which could be a deterrent for families prioritizing local school quality.
