Perched on the top floor of a handsome 1936 Mediterranean-style building on the Twin Peaks and Eureka Valley border, this 2-bedroom, 1-bath residence opens to a sweeping panorama that runs from the East Bay hills and Mt. Diablo across the downtown skyline, the Salesforce Tower, and the Bay Bridge, seen from nearly every room. At 1,010 sq. ft. (per graphic artist), it pairs that rare outlook with vintage character and thoughtful, move-in-ready updates.

The crowning feature is the private roof deck: an unobstructed sweep across the city for sunrise filled morning coffee and golden-hour wind-downs. Few residences at this price offer a vantage point like it.

Inside, the light-filled living room is anchored by a gas fireplace, framed by period crown molding, and looks out to Sutro Tower and the green rise of Twin Peaks and spans over to Corona Heights and beyond. The updated kitchen makes the most of its perch, gazing out to the SF skyline through dual windows, and is outfitted with a 5-burner Café gas range, stainless dishwasher and refrigerator, and granite-style countertops. Just off the kitchen, the dining area frames the city and bay through a picture window, setting a memorable stage for everyday meals and evening gatherings alike.

Both bedrooms are genuine showpieces, each capturing a head-on view of downtown and complete with generous closets. Refinished hardwood floors run throughout. Day-to-day function is handled with ease: a washer and dryer in the unit, two additional storage closets (in garage), and side-by-side parking (1 car/unit) in the 2-car garage.

The Twin Peaks and Eureka Valley border puts the best of central San Francisco at your doorstep. The dining, cafes, and shops of the Castro, Noe Valley, and Upper Market are an easy stroll away, with easy access to local favorites like Aiso, Anchor Oyster Bar, Fable, Starbelly, Frances, Saru Suchi Bar, Vive La Tarte, Firefly Restaurant, Philz Coffee. While nearby Kite Hill, Tank Hill, and Corona Heights offer some of the city’s finest open-space overlooks.

"Our initial consultation was one of the most memorable discussions we’ve had with someone in the business. She demonstrated through examples how creative, solutions-oriented and innovative her approach was; notably how her team adapted to the covid-19 environment through novel and personal marketing and attention to detail via virtual experiences. Other Realtors offered us a lower rate but we believe we got the quality and caliber we paid for."
N.O., Seller
"Ruth is a down-to-earth, friendly pit bull who represented us well and never let her guard down. She prepared us, protected us, and positioned us for what could not have been a more successful sale."
J.R., Seller
"In this very tough market, she got my family into a fantastic home. I was getting ready to walk away from the SF market altogether, because I just didn't think we could find what we wanted in a home at a price we could pay. Ruth is an absolute pro and helped us get the house we wanted. Ruth is a master real estate agent and the one you want in San Francisco."
H.H & A.P., Buyer
"In such a competitive market we needed an edge to get the home we wanted and we found that with Ruth and her team. She is down to earth, very personable and a master negotiator. She is honest, understanding, and not just out to make the sale."
R.M., Buyer
"Ruth was quick to assess our needs, the property needs, and the San Francisco market needs. She considered the property thoughtfully as she made recommendations for any renovations or work required. Her experience and knowledge as an interior designer is an asset. She creatively played with the space to increase its marketability and our home was beautifully displayed. We were pleased with the amount of offers and felt that Ruth's knowledge attributed to our success."
