Pros & Cons
Pros
Great Schools: Elementary School: Lafayette Elementary School (9/10). Middle School: Lilienthal (Claire) Elementary School (9/10). High School: Lowell High School (10/10).
Exceptional Location: Situated in the highly desirable Richmond District, steps from Golden Gate Park, De Young Museum, California Academy of Sciences, and diverse Clement Street dining, offering unparalleled lifestyle and convenience.
Generous Space & Lot: Boasts over 1700 square feet of living space on a substantial 2,500 square foot lot, providing ample room for urban living in San Francisco.
Functional Lower Level & Parking: Features a versatile lower level with an additional bedroom/office, full bathroom, laundry area, and a highly valuable 2-car parking garage, enhancing utility and flexibility.
Original Architectural Charm: Retains original architectural details from its 1931 build, appealing to buyers seeking character and historic charm.
Desirable Outdoor Space: Includes a good-sized backyard, offering valuable private outdoor space for relaxation and entertainment in a dense urban environment.
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 = 1770.
Renovation Required: Built in 1931, the property's description of 'great potential' strongly suggests it requires significant renovation and modernization to meet contemporary standards and maximize its value.
Outdated Systems & Finishes: Given its age and emphasis on original details without mention of recent upgrades, major systems (electrical, plumbing, heating) and interior finishes are likely dated, necessitating substantial capital investment.
Limited Primary Bedroom Count: The property is officially listed as 2 bedrooms, which, despite the flexible downstairs space, may be perceived as a lower bedroom count for its size and price point in the competitive San Francisco market.
