About the Property
WOW! This top-floor condo in a prime Lower Pacific Heights location is filled w/ incredible natural light, showcasing timeless Edwardian architectural details.
Perfectly situated, 1914 Pine St. is just blocks away from the vibrant energy of all that Fillmore St. has to offer (acclaimed restaurants & boutiques), all things new and exciting on Polk St., everything that Lafayette Park has to offer (nature/beautiful plantings, dog park, tennis courts, vierws galore, hillside lounging for sun bathing/picnicking, etc.), proximity to fantastic Japantown & so much more! Neighborhood charm exudes right outside your front door!
Unit details: Huge for a 1 Bedroom/1 bathroom condo with great flex spaces for home office or expansion potential for 2 bedrooms. There is currently a split bathroom (tub/shower and sink in one large room and a toilet/powder room directly across the hall), but could easily become 1 full bathroom with 1/2 bath (powder room) across the hall.
Amazing light sun drenches the living and dining rooms (which have City Light and Twin Peaks views) in the front of the condo from the south. And because this building is detached on 3 sides, you get the same amount of light in almost every other area of the unit. Rare indeed!
The kitchen is large with stainless steel appliances, ample cabinet spaces, and has a pantry area with original built-ins that connects to the large dining room area (also with charming original Edwardian era built-ins, and has so much space that you can add a home office area if desired).
The dining room is connected to the large living room (enhanced by a beautiful decorative fireplace) with vintage pocket doors.
There is a laundry room off the kitchen that also allows for even more storage- incredible!
The large light-filled bedroom (on the west side) has a tremendous walk-in closet (that can also be accessed by the hallway) + another large closet in the bedroom.
There are newer double pane windows throughout. High ceilings (gorgeously beamed in the dining area) adorn the entire unit.
And if there wasn't enough storage space within the unit itself, there is also a large storage closet included in basement.
The HOA is professionally managed and there is a beautiful shared garden area for get togethers, or peaceful alone time.
This condo is one that you just can't miss out on based on location, neighborhood amenities- fabulous restaurants and bakeries, unique retail shops, public parks, ease of transport- a true A+ home and location! Must see in person!

From the Seller:
TOP 10 THINGS I’LL MISS ABOUT LIVING AT 1914 PINE ST. #8 (I COULD LIST MANY MORE!)
1. Being in foodie paradise: Juniper bakery, Octavia (one block away), State Bird Provisions, Pizzeria Delfina, Roam burgers
2. Lafayette Park: dog park, tennis courts, playground, and hillside lounging
3. Japantown: sushi, ramen, boba tea at Yifang, matcha, sweet potato latte at Yakini Q, Daiso, Nijiya
4. Whole Foods just a few blocks away! Molly Stone's and Trader Joe's also nearby
5. Window shopping on Fillmore, Polk, and Union Streets
6. Easy public transit to downtown/financial district: bus lines 1, 2, 3, 38, and California line cable car. (For those who work in tech or biotech, buses pick up a few blocks away on Van Ness)
7. The beautiful city views from the dining room and living room
8. The preserved Edwardian architectural details in the condo: the dining room built-in cabinetry, the detailing on the hardwood floors, the elaborate trim and molding throughout, the high ceilings
9. The sun-drenched dining room, living room, kitchen, and bedroom. As a top-floor unit, almost every room (other than 1/2 bath with toilet and closet) is bright and sunny.
10. Living in a safe community -- the neighborhood is safe, the condominium complex is safe, and being on the top floor affords additional safety
This condo has a very special "energy": as a top floor unit with expansive views, it is bright, sunny, airy, peaceful, safe, and beautiful. It was my happy place and my safe haven. I hope this condo will bring as much peace and joy to the next owner as it did for me for so many years.
