Enjoy every last drop of sunshine in this remodeled Bernal Heights home, a beacon of indoor/outdoor living just one block from Cortland St. The former cottage boasts two levels of contemporary living space and an absolutely dreamy backyard. It also received a new foundation, designed to accommodate further expansion up and out.

A versatile layout allows for easy entertaining while providing ample privacy and space. Open living/kitchen/dining areas welcome abundant light upstairs, a joyful setting for Saturday morning brunch or Friday movie night. Fresh and inviting, the upper bedroom overlooks the garden where lush plantings and two palm trees accent a manicured lawn. Adjacent sundeck access lets you tiptoe out to take in verdant hill views as you sip your morning coffee (or lounge all day, savoring the tranquil ambience.)

Downstairs serves up a wonderful shock as floor-to-ceiling NanaWall doors open the family room to an expansive terrace perfect for al fresco dining or late nights around the natural fire pit. Its sunken design adds an extra layer of privacy so you can fully unwind. The primary bedroom suite is on this level as well, featuring a full bath with tub, two closets, and a coffee/wet bar – can be used as a legal AirBnB suite. Laundry room with stacked Samsung washer/dryer adjacent.

About the Neighborhood

BERNAL HEIGHTS

 

The secret charms of Bernal Heights aren’t very secret anymore, though its hidden staircases, slides, grassy knolls, viewpoints, and messages inscribed throughout its hills are still a source of unexpected joy for many a visitor and the “urban village” has retained its smalltown feel despite its skyrocketing rise in popularity. Commuter-friendly and community-oriented, it’s beloved for its panoramic hilltop views, easy access to transport and retail corridors, San Francisco’s first and arguably best farmers’ market, and verdant parks and playgrounds – including the famously dog-friendly Bernal Hill Park.

Holly Hirshfield & Alan Peterson

"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."
N.S., Seller
