Property Description

Iconic flat in one of the city's most central, charming, and coveted neighborhoods. This exceptional, full-floor, two-bedroom, two-bath flat is just 3 blocks up from Cole Valley shops. Thoughtfully rebuilt from the ground up in the early 2000s with a new foundation, new systems, all new windows, and significant seismic upgrades (including steel beam), this home perfectly blends lasting integrity with its original Edwardian character. High ceilings, in-unit laundry, a gas fireplace, and one-car side-by-side garage parking add convenience and ease while the shared rear yard offers a quiet retreat to entertain and relax. Tree-lined, Downey Street's limited, one-way traffic, underground/hidden power lines and neighborly vibe complete this dreamy Ashbury Heights condo. Short walk to Golden Gate Park and Buena Vista Park as well as Haight St., Castro St., and Divisadero St. shopping. Super quick access to N Judah light rail for transportation downtown or to the Beach in either direction. This truly is a special block with multiple block parties each year, children playing outside, and a remarkably pervasive scent of jasmine up and down the entire block - this is a tiny pocket of tranquility in the heart of the city. It's no wonder turnover on this block is as low as it is.
