For the first time since it was built in 1940, 700 Lawton Street is available as a rare, multi-generational home in the heart of Golden Gate Heights. Originally purchased as an empty lot by the grandfather of the current owner, this cherished residence has gracefully evolved through three generations, standing as one of the first homes on this side of the hill, once part of a historic rock quarry. Spanning 3,490 sq. ft., the home offers 5 beds, 4 baths, an updated kitchen featuring stunning Taj Mahal quartzite countertops, and a new oversized deck, the perfect backdrop for entertaining or relaxing as you take in sweeping downtown views and glimpses of the Golden Gate Bridge. Improvements over the years include foundation & system upgrades, and a thoughtfully designed vertical addition. The large garage provides generous storage. Perfectly positioned within walking distance to local restaurants, cafes, and schools, the home sits just half a block from Alice Fong Yu Alternative School, a top-rated Chinese immersion elementary school. This is more than a home; it's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a landmark property rich in history and poised for generations to come.
