789 Arguello Blvd, San Francisco, CA 94118

1908. Two years after the earthquake and fire and San Francisco was an exciting place full of activity and westward expansion. At the border of the outside lands,'' in this year the stunning row of homes that contains 789 Arguello was added to the grand 1st Avenue renamed Arguello after Jos Daro Argello, who served as a Spanish governor of Alta and Baja California in the early 1800s. A short walk from the Conservatory of Flowers erected in 1873 and the Music Concourse, deYoung Museum, adjacent Japanese Tea Garden and other attractions in Golden Gate Park, this was, as now, an elegant and central location. Refreshed and ready for life today, 789 Arguello looks out over the wide tree-lined sidewalks and its own tranquil rear garden. It has a spacious entry foyer, front living room with decorative bird's eye maple mantle and huge double-parlor style primary bedroom. Restored old growth Douglass fir floors draw you down the hall past the 2nd bedroom and revamped bath to the large eat-in kitchen. The kitchen was recently renovated with new cabinetry and appliances in on trend shades of green, ivory and gold. At the rear of the home, a sunny 3rd bedroom leads to the garden. Below this room, there is a dedicated storage, craft or workout room with adjacent garage area with up to 2 car parking (depending on car size) and laundry hook ups for the exclusive use of this unit. This is the sanctuary that will become the hub of your social life as you meet with friends before and after long days in the Park, where you lace up your shoes before relaxing evening strolls and enjoy many years of convenient city living. The neighborhood can't be beat. In addition to all of the historical attractions still available today, you can get most of what you need right across the street at the well stocked Arguello Market, special occasion gifts at Iris & Emerson, and a burrito said to give you 50 miles worth of power at Velo Rouge. Venturing around the corner, more delights only found in SF - a secret sushi place in a converted garage (Tekka, but of these photos are of somewhere else it's so secret, call ahead and there is no website), Cinderella Bakery's famous Piroshki, shop for one of a kind handmade ceramics at Yonder on Cabrillo or follow your feet down to Ariscault and all of the delights of Clement just a few blocks north.
