About This Home

As of May 2026

Grand Balboa Terrace Classic! 126 Aptos Avenue is a timeless 1930s residence offering over 3,000 square feet of beautifully curated living space. Set in one of San Francisco's most desirable enclaves, this six-bedroom, three-bathroom home captures sweeping ocean views, features a rare four-car garage with expansion potential, and is ideally positioned directly across from a premier park and playground. Bathed in natural light, the home showcases refined period detailing paired seamlessly with thoughtful contemporary updates. The expansive living and dining rooms are anchored by beautifully refinished hardwood floors and fresh interior paint, creating an elegant yet inviting atmosphere. The updated, south-facing kitchen features new countertops and flows effortlessly into a bright breakfast room complete with a charming built-in hutch. The upper level offers a true penthouse-like experience, highlighted by dramatic 180 views of the Pacific Ocean and access to a newly renovated full bathroom. Two additional bedrooms on this level enjoy direct access to an enclosed sunroom, perfect for relaxation or creative use. The spacious lower level provides exceptional flexibility, featuring a laundry area, abundant storage, and a bonus room ideal for a home office, guest suite, or extended living space, complemented by a full bathroom. The expansive garage accommodates up to four vehicles and presents a compelling opportunity for future expansion. Outdoors, the garden is framed by a classic white picket fence and set along a private access easement.
