The 1911s facade preserves its period charm, while a comprehensive 2000 renovation updated every major building systems - plumbing, electrical, structural, and sprinklersensuring peace of mind for years to come. A new roof, completed in 2020, further underscores the care and investment put into this residence. Inside, the intuitive floor plan features tall ceilings, gleaming hardwood floors, and an open kitchen with new appliances. A private patio flows seamlessly into a large deeded yard, shaded by mature trees and offering a rare urban sanctuary perfect for gardening, entertaining, or simply unwinding. Practical comforts include in-unit laundry and easy bike storage. While there is no garage parking, the central location makes car-free living a joy. The neighborhood offers excellent access to Muni and tech shuttles, and within a short stroll are the beloved cafes, restaurants, and shops of Cole Valley Village. Golden Gate Park and UCSF Parnassus are just minutes away. This is a complete package: historic character, modern infrastructure, indoor-outdoor living, and a coveted Cole Valley address.
