Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac in Laurel Heights with a short stairway at the end of the block that leads right to Laurel Village shopping this refreshed home balances everyday comfort with flexible living. Rebuilt from the studs in 2016 and legally a duplex, it lives much more like a single family home. With generous ceiling height and terrific natural light, the main floor consists of an open living area that's easy to arrange and even easier to live in, then flows into the primary suite, a second bedroom, a full bath, and convenient laundry without losing that connected, homey feel. The lower level offers extra room to stretch out: a spacious third bedroom and full bath, extra laundry hook-ups, and a family room with a compact kitchenette that all open directly to the expansive backyard. An office nook and a small den toward the front of the house round out this floor and all of these spaces work well for a home office, media room, teenager's domain, guest quarters, or rental income. You can use them as one cohesive home or keep the ADU setup if that fits your plans. While the front of the house is adorned with beautiful cherry blossoms in the spring, the backyard is lush and inviting and was designed thoughtfully with low-maintenance, drought-friendly landscaping. It's a great spot for morning coffee, an afternoon read, casual BBQs, or hosting friends. You'll find that this yard gets remarkably more all-day sun than most east facing yards in San Francisco. A major utility plus: the home has an owned solar system (no lease) that's grandfathered into California's NEM‑1 program one of the state's most advantageous net-metering incentives that 94118 residents can enjoy for 20 years which can significantly reduce electricity costs compared with current solar arrangements on the market. The location is super convenient and central. In addition to the fabulous access to Laurel Village, you'll love Laurel Hill Playground with its baseball diamond, tennis courts, playground and basketball hoop also just up the stairs at the end of the cul-de-sac. There are tons of cafes, shops and restaurants within a few blocks of the house but we would be remiss not to mention that just a few blocks further are charming Sacramento St. and bustling Clement St. retail - think Spruce, Sociale, Magic Flute, Chapeau, Giorgios, Pasta Supply Co, Burma Super Star, Good Luck Dim Sum, farmers' market and SO much more. Don't miss Q Specialty Coffee on the new local hot spot.
