Prime Russian Hill Fourplex
Prime Russian Hill Fourplex
Located on a prime Russian Hill block near the corner of Union and Hyde, this meticulously maintained four-unit building includes a three-car garage and over 3500 square feet of living space. Situated at the mid-point on quaint Allen Street, near the shops and restaurants of Union and Polk Streets, this rare offering has been lovingly cared for by the same owner-occupant family for three generations. The handsome property has a great flow with two units on each side of the building, separated by an interior center staircase. The property includes two 3-bedroom/1-bath flats, two 2-bedroom/1-bath flats, two side-by-side garages with room for three cars, and three massive storage rooms plus several other storage areas. Two vacant top-floor flats make this property ideal for partners, owner/investors or anyone who values space and one of San Francisco's best locations near iconic neighborhoods, such as North Beach, the Marina, Russian Hill and Nob Hill.
Highlights:
Russian Hill
Breathtaking views, palatial houses, and home to the world famous Crooked Street: the Russian Hill neighborhood is as unique as it is beautiful. Russian Hill homes feature an eclectic mix of architectural styles and influences. From Spanish Colonial mansions to century-old row houses and everything in between, there is a home or townhome for every taste and sensibility.
Surrounded by some of San Francisco’s most popular neighborhoods (Pacific Heights and Marina to the west; Fisherman’s Wharf and North Beach to the north/east; and Nob Hill and Chinatown to the south), there is no shortage of fun activities and landmarks to explore when you live in Russian Hill.
Locals enjoy the hillside garden climbs, the exquisite tiny parks, and The First Swensen’s Ice Cream Store, the classic ice cream parlor found at the corner of Union and Hyde. There is a delicate European flair to many of the boutiques and restaurants found along the lush green streets of Jackson, Union, and Hyde.
Some of San Francisco's finest cuisine can be found here, including Micheline-rated Gary Danko just a short walk down the hill from 1900 Leavenworth. If shopping is on your list, don't miss the many delightful boutiques dotting Polk Street between Union and Broadway. Between the great food and great shopping, Russian Hill will never disappoint.
Nearby Fisherman’s Wharf is a popular place for both locals and tourists to spend their leisure time. A short walk from Russian Hill, many visitors like to start their day at Fisherman’s Wharf with a visit to the Maritime National Historical Park. Enjoy a walk through the museum followed by a history lesson aboard the various historic vessels located along Hyde Street Pier. After a day of sightseeing, take in the views at nearby Aquatic Park - a long stretch of sand looking out onto the Bay, Alcatraz Island and the hills of Marin. This stretch of San Francisco is home to one of the best 4th of July parties in the region, an event not to be missed.
Despite the hairpin turns scattered throughout the neighborhood, Russian Hill remains a very walkable urban landscape. The Financial District and Civic Center are about a thirty-minute walk, depending on which part of the neighborhood you’re in. There are also several Muni routes, including two cable car lines, that pass through the area which can get you just about anywhere.
Last but not least, this side of town enjoys an amazing amount of open space, including Fort Mason to the northwest, the iconic Washington Square to the east and the newly-completed Francisco Park. Take a stroll to the site - on Bay at Hyde - and behold the new jewel of the City. More information can be found at https://franciscopark.org/.
