Our client’s property garnered a lot of interest when we brought it on the market, and small wonder. Charming home in a great location listed at an attractive price — what’s not to love? Despite dozens of disclosures being sent out, we received far fewer offers than expected, but it only takes one good one. Our client is thrilled, and were delighted for them.

Why so few offers? Sometimes buyers are intimidated when a property gets a lot of attention. Perhaps they don’t want to deal with the competition, or are concerned it will push the price out of their range. In any event, this is why we encourage clients to write, even if they think they won’t get it. You never know what will happen. We’ve had some surprise wins in our day.

This Inner Sunset Craftsman-style home, owned by one family for over 100 years, delights with period charm, including original trim and inlaid hardwood floors throughout. From the bright living room, you flow to a welcoming dining room with coved ceilings and a handsome built-in hutch. The spacious kitchen offers ample cabinetry and enough room for an eat-in area. Morning light fills the front bedroom, and the larger primary at the back offers privacy and serenity. A skylight floods the bathroom with fresh air and natural light. Downstairs, a bonus room makes an ideal office, home gym, or zen meditation space. The expansive west-facing backyard with a glimpse of the Golden Gate Bridge is made for entertaining and a gardener’s green thumb. There’s expansion potential in the garage area, plus attic space. The house is nestled in a quiet valley between Grandview Park and Mt. Sutro, walkable to Golden Gate Park, notable eateries, and many conveniences of the 9th Ave/Irving neighborhood.
