Located on a particularly attractive block with other architecturally pleasing buildings, this fine residence is the upper in a two unit building that has a delightfully balanced and ornate facade, just a quarter block from Golden Gate Park, built in 1918. There are refinished hardwood floors and cove ceilings throughout.
A beautifully detailed heavy door with beveled glass opens to stairway which ascends to the living room of generous proportion and large windows facing west. The working fireplace is flanked by two built in sets of shelving with alcoves above, the sum of which span the entire south wall.

The hallway, which has a linen closet, leads to water closet with commode, half bath with sink and shower over bathtub, and another half bath with commode and sink. The large kitchen is flooded with light overhead through skylight and has plenty of cabinets and tiled countertops and flooring.

The first bedroom is bright with east facing windows and a large walk in closet. Sunroom (currently being used as an office) is off of this bedroom, which faces east with windows on three sides that capture morning sun. this room leads to the second bedroom that also has a large closet.
