More Insights
Built in 1914 (112 years old).
Condition: Built in 1914, this Edwardian home features newly refinished hardwood floors and fresh paint in the main living areas, giving a clean appearance. However, the kitchen is significantly outdated with original-style wood cabinets, old laminate countertops, vintage appliances, and dated linoleum flooring. The main bathroom also shows considerable age with 1950s-era blue wall tiles, an old vanity, and fixtures. The garage level bathroom is equally basic and dated. While the property is livable, the core functional areas (kitchen and bathrooms) require substantial renovation and rehabilitation to meet modern standards, and the listing itself notes 'Age-Related System Concerns' for a home of this vintage.

About this home
This lovely single-family, Edwardian home in the Mission Terrace neighborhood of San Francisco has been in the same family for decades and has been lovingly cared for over the years. Located on Norton St, which is only one block long, you are within a very short distance from both Mission St and Alemany Blvd. Once you enter the home, you will notice the period detailing that has been saved in many of the rooms. With newly refinished hardwood floors, fresh paint, and landscaping this property has plenty of options for the new owner. On the main level, you'll find the entry foyer, folding doors painted to look stressed open to the Formal Living Room with Fireplace and the Formal Dining Room. The Dining Room has special coffered ceilings as well as a large built-in with a similar stressed look. On this level, you'll also find a Family Room, the Kitchen, Laundry, and a 1/4 bath. Going upstairs is where you'll find the 4 large Bedrooms and a full Bathroom plus a Sunroom extension off of one of the back bedrooms which overlooks the yard. At the garage level you have parking of 1-2 cars plus two rooms and bathroom. The yard is fenced and has a playhouse at the back, which has been there for many years. Don't Miss Out !

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).
Historic Edwardian Charm & Character: The property boasts original period detailing, coffered ceilings, and a classic Edwardian aesthetic, offering unique character highly sought after in San Francisco.
Prime Location & Accessibility: Situated on a quiet, one-block street in the desirable Mission Terrace neighborhood, providing excellent access to major thoroughfares like Mission St and Alemany Blvd, and urban amenities.
Flexible Living Spaces & Expansion Potential: With 4 large bedrooms, multiple living areas (formal living, dining, family room, sunroom), and a garage level featuring two rooms and a bathroom, there's significant potential for an ADU, home office, or additional living space.
Recent Cosmetic Updates & Good Condition: Newly refinished hardwood floors, fresh paint, and landscaping indicate the property has been lovingly cared for and is ready for immediate occupancy, reducing initial move-in costs.
Valuable Off-Street Parking & Private Yard: The inclusion of 1-2 car garage parking is a significant asset in San Francisco, complemented by a private, fenced yard with a playhouse, ideal for families.
Cons
MLS Listing Discrepancy: Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 1988, other record living area = 1050.
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 = 2495, living area = 1988.
Age-Related System Concerns: Built in 1914, the property may have original or aging infrastructure (plumbing, electrical, heating) that could require future upgrades or significant maintenance, which are not explicitly mentioned as having been modernized.
Limited Modernization in Core Areas: While cosmetically updated, the description doesn't highlight a fully renovated kitchen or bathrooms (beyond the basic count), suggesting these areas might be dated and could require substantial investment to meet contemporary buyer expectations.
Compact Lot Size: The lot size of approximately 2,500 sqft is relatively small for a single-family home, potentially limiting outdoor expansion possibilities or appeal to buyers desiring more expansive private grounds.
