Pros & Cons

Pros

Great Schools: Elementary School: Chinese Immersion School At Deavila (9/10). Middle School: Lilienthal (Claire) Elementary School (9/10). High School: Lowell High School (10/10).
Extensive Recent Renovations: The 2-unit building was fully upgraded and renovated in 2024, including new plumbing, new electrical, and seismic upgrades with new beams, significantly enhancing its structural integrity and modern functionality.
Prime Lake District Location: Situated half a block from Mountain Lake Park in the prestigious Lake District, offering excellent walkability to top-rated schools, shops, restaurants, and proximity to major San Francisco landmarks like the Presidio and Golden Gate Park.
Significant Income Potential & Flexible Use: Offers substantial rental income potential (e.g., $14k/month for Unit #156, $10k/month for Unit #154) or versatile usage as a large 8-bedroom, 5-bath single-family home, or a combination of living and office/guest space.
Valuable Parking & Outdoor Space: Includes a 2-car garage with storage and an electric car outlet, a highly sought-after amenity in San Francisco, complemented by a great backyard suitable for outdoor living, family events, and gardening.
Spacious & Versatile Layout: Comprises two generously sized units (1727 sq ft with 4 beds/2 baths and 2180 sq ft with 4 beds/3 baths), providing ample living space and flexibility for various living arrangements or investment strategies.

Cons

Lack of Central Air Conditioning: The property description does not mention a cooling system, which might be a consideration for some buyers, despite San Francisco's generally mild climate.
High Entry Price Point: With a list price of $4.485 million, the property represents a significant investment, potentially limiting the pool of prospective buyers despite its premium features and location.
Tenant Management Responsibilities: While offering income potential, operating a multi-unit property entails landlord responsibilities, which may be a drawback for buyers seeking a purely single-family residence without the complexities of tenant management.
