More Insights
Built in 1932 (94 years old).
Condition: Built in 1932, this home retains much of its original charm and appears well-maintained, particularly in the living and dining areas with their beautiful parquet floors and architectural details. However, the kitchen features significantly outdated wood cabinetry, tile countertops, and older appliances (likely 20-40 years old). All bathrooms are also very dated in style; the primary en-suite bathroom, while clean and functional, is a distinct vintage (pink and green tiles, pedestal sink) that would require a full renovation for modern tastes. The property is aged but maintained, with major components functional but showing signs of being outdated, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.

About this home
Possibly the grandest home in the two-block Rousseaus' Boulevard Tract,'' this Spanish Colonial Revival residence evokes the charm and romance of classic Storybook homes. Situated on an expansive 4,000-square-foot lot, this fully detached home offers sweeping ocean views from nearly every room. The foyer opens to an opulent sunken living room with abundant natural light, ocean views, a statement fireplace, vaulted beamed ceilings, and parquet floors that continue throughout the main level. Completing the main level is a formal dining room with an iron balcony, a powder room, a kitchen with views of the Marin Headlands, and an adjoining breakfast room with access to a large deck. Upper level offers three bedrooms, including a primary suite with balcony, walk-in closet, dressing room, and en-suite bath with tub and shower. Ground level includes one-car garage, storage, laundry with half bath, and bonus room. Multi-terraced rear yard with mature trees and landscaping. Truly a must see.

Limited Parking Capacity: The property includes a one-car garage, which may be insufficient for families or households with multiple vehicles, especially in a dense urban environment like San Francisco where parking is a premium.
Absence of Central Air Conditioning: The description does not mention a central cooling system, which is typical for homes of this vintage and could be a drawback for buyers seeking modern climate control, particularly during warmer periods.
