A smart floor plan delivers excellent flow: a lofted bedroom overlooks the open living, kitchen, and dining spaces that are illuminated by the green backyard. Glass sliders extend the square footage, revealing a private deck that extends to a beautiful shared backyard with garden patio for easy entertaining. It’s a serene setting to lounge, work, or dine al fresco. A rustling palm tree hints at the beach access a short drive or bike ride away.
Kitchen and bath have been renovated and redesigned for modern comfort – think stainless-steel appliances, ample storage and in-unit washer/dryer – all warmed by a gas fireplace perfect for cozy evenings at home.
This property sits across from the Potrero Gateway Park project, which aims to recover the green spaces that were once occupied by homes before the construction of the 101 freeway in 1954. This initiative, which has been driven by citizens for decades, seeks to transform Vermont St. and improve the safety and usability of the surrounding open areas near San Bruno, Vermont, and 17th streets. Since 2019, the project has also sought to demonstrate the ecological benefits of incorporating California native plants into the landscape. The property is also situated in the Green Benefit District, which supports parks, street greening, urban gardening, and community building in the NW Potrero Hill/Dogpatch area while also aiding the Potrero Gateway Project.
Best known for its sunny weather and sweeping views, Potrero Hill is a charming neighborhood that still feels a little bit like a secret. It’s pedestrian-friendly, and almost everything you need or want is minutes away. For groceries, you have Whole Foods, Trader Joes, Safeway, and Costco, Alemany Farmer’s Market, and the Ferry Building. Restaurants abound, with Spanish, French, Mediterranean, Asian, and farm-to-table options all within walking distance. Stroll to Philz, Peet’s, or Starbucks for a caffeine buzz, and then on to the Design District, 18th Street, or the Dogpatch for a bit of shopping. Runners and bikers will find themselves right at home on a route that takes you past AT&T Ball Park and continues along the invigorating length of the sunny Embarcadero waterfront, and indoor fitness types have several specialty gym options. Popular amongst families, Potrero Hill has great schools, playgrounds, a children’s bookstore, and pediatricians nearby. Look forward to a quick commute for work or fun, with easy accessibility to SOMA, the Mission, 101-fwy, I-280, and the Caltrain station.
