loading your dream Victorian with Garden Cottage
Tiffany Hickenbottom presents:
This eclectic, colorful Victorian is perfectly placed in the heart of the Mission, with a sunny, WEST-FACING YARD and a charming, detached GARDEN COTTAGE. This vibrant retreat offers three bedrooms and a bath in the main house, which is surrounded by lush greenery, providing for an ideal San Francisco INDOOR-OUTDOOR lifestyle. You’ll find everything you’d imagine should be in a home of this period — hardwood floors, vaulted ceilings, wainscoting, architectural details — all artfully blended with MODERN-DAY UPDATES and amenities, in a flexible, light-filled floor plan. Step inside...
... to find a huge great room with soaring ceilings with a lovely living/ dining area and quaint eat-in bar area -- all encouraging connection. The bright and stylish remodeled kitchen shines with high-end Thermador and Bosch appliances, wood countertops, and colorful deco-style tile flooring. There are two high-ceilinged bedrooms in the front of the home, separated from the spacious primary bedroom, with its sweet window seat overlooking the colorful yard. Downstairs, there are garden-level rooms that provide flexibility to create an easy work-from-home life and/or a fun, informal living space - ideal for kids, pets or whatever your heart desires. Plus tons of storage/flex space, laundry area and a one-car garage with electric charger and workbench station.
Outside, there is a wood deck with stairs that lead to a white deco- tiled patio which is ideal for entertaining and California living and joined by a lush garden, an outdoor shower, custom-built wraparound seating and a large faux-grass area. The sun-filled yard is simply amazing - and appeals to all the senses with its colorful plants and fruit trees, including lavender, lemon, bougainvillea and magnolia. It feels like a true living extension of the home, providing a natural oasis in the heart of the city. The garden cottage is situated on the rear of the lot and holds a loft, living area, updated bath and eat-in kitchen. With its own street entrance, it is ideal for guests, a private office or an au pair suite. A rare find!
This vibrant sunny retreat sits on a great block in the Inner Mission, with its cafés and restaurants, boutiques, shops — including Gus’s Community Market, SightGlass Coffee, Atlas Café, Trick Dog Bar, Penny Roma, Flour + Water, Mission Cliffs and Farmhouse Thai. It offers easy access to the 101 and 280 freeways, Muni and BART, and tech shuttles to the South Bay. The bustling neighborhood is just a short bike ride to Dolores Park and a few blocks to SF General Hospital and is one of San Francisco’s most popular places to live, explore and enjoy the city's warmest climate!

Sunny, flat, and centrally located, the Mission represents the heart and especially the soul of San Francisco. Equally attractive to immigrants and a burgeoning herd of hipsters in ironic t-shirts, the Mission is still the melting pot of San Francisco. Here you'll find traditional Mexican taquerias and panaderias, pop up galleries, freshly minted block-long live/work lofts in former canneries, and a new generation of chefs determined to make their mark and earn a Michelin star.
The neighborhood is highly walkable: a major urban shopping center at 16th and Potrero offers groceries, a gym, post office, office supplies, and a Peets Coffee. The museum district at 3rd and Howard is nearby, and the ball park is not far. Public Transportation is great. MUNI bus lines crisscross the neighborhoods and there are two BART stations at 16th and Mission and 24th and Mission which serve the neighborhood.
With the rise of the dot-coms in the mid-90s, the old industrial warehouses of the Mission district were converted into open air, open concept workspaces.
These attracted a new kind of population: educated, highly-skilled, and eagerly looking for the next big thing: be it entertainment, dining, culture, or dance club. And they wanted to be able to walk to work, or at least ride their bike.
Housing was developed to match the taste and needs of this generation of newcomers. Many of the old warehouses preserved their old brick facades. Inside luxury interiors feature exposed brick walls, huge timbered beams, two-story high living rooms with airy ceilings, industrial kitchens, and of course, high speed Internet connections. Stately turn-of-the-century homes line the sunny blocks of this uniquely San Franciscan district. In between its main thoroughfares of Dolores, Guerrero, and Valencia, you can find many smaller hidden architectural treasures dotting the intimate cross-street alleyways.
San Francisco's oldest building stands at the corner of 16th and Dolores. Constructed in 1776, Mission Dolores draws the gaze of passersby with its clean, early-colonial Mexican style. It remains an active Roman Catholic church, and is open daily for services and to visitors alike. Just around the corner is Dolores Park, one of the city's great neighborhood hangouts, where you might be lucky enough to catch an outdoor performance by the San Francisco Mime Troupe. Time seems of no consequence on sunny afternoons while families recline along the comfortably sloping landscape.
Daytime is for the sun-worshipping crowds, while warm nights are all about people watching.
Valencia Street is among the hippest nighttime destination on the planet. Throngs of young folks dropping into the trendy new eateries, filling the local watering holes for their fix of poetry and music, hitting the local performance spaces for inspired avant-garde happenings. You will find a cultural mecca, as well as a food experience beyond compare along these lively streets.
Public transportation is as good as it gets in the Mission. Two BART stations, at 16th and Mission and 24th and Mission, complement a complete bus schedule to downtown and beyond.
