About This Home

As of May 2020

www.1615Francisco.com. A rare opportunity to set root in a truly special home and in a wonderful community that is both dynamic & down-to-earth. Thoughtful (& thorough!) renovation by local master builder involved complete reworking of the layout & use of the lot – enhancing the relationship between indoor & outdoor spaces, and adding a brand-new 750 sq ft accessory dwelling unit (ADU). Whether you’re sheltering in place or (eventually) entertaining friends & family, this home is perfect for enjoying life's moments & stages. Main level offers generous living spaces that connect to the backyard through windows & French doors that bring in light & draw you to the park-like surroundings. Upstairs are an office plus 3bd's/2ba's, including a spacious master suite w/ 2 walk-in closets & spa-like bathroom. Terrific location close to Totland (around the corner), Monterey Market, Ohlone Park/Greenway, Gourmet Ghetto, BART, multiple Transbay Express lines, & bike lanes galore. Truly wonderful!
