Property Details

519-521 4th Avenue
Possibilities abound at 519-521 4th Avenue, two stylishly renovated houses on the same lot in the highly desirable Inner Richmond. Use the full property as a complex for your family and friends, keep one home for rental income, or invest in both as rentals in an in-demand neighborhood. These homes are partner-perfect for fast-track condo conversion and are also available for separate purchase as TICs.
519 4th Avenue
Vaulted ceilings, oversized windows, and a dramatic statement skylight bring abundant volume and natural light to the social rooms at 519 4th Avenue. At the front of the house, the living room, dining room and kitchen occupy distinct spaces but flow together seamlessly. The modern kitchen features tall cabinets with frosted glass fronts, nested drawers that maximize usable space, another large skylight, and plenty of beautiful quartz counter space to share the dinner prep work with friends. Stainless steel appliances include a 6-burner professional range, a refrigerator with French doors, and a dishwasher. A convenient hallway bathroom and entry closet are situated just off the social rooms.
Follow the hallway to the rear of the main level to find three quiet off-street bedrooms that are nicely separated from the social rooms. On one side, the primary bedroom with a modern ensuite bathroom boasts a walk-in closet and balcony access. On the other, two more bedrooms each include large closets. The rear bedroom shares access to the west-facing balcony, a great place to soak in the afternoon glow. An eclectic collection of vintage light fixtures adds flair to this unique home.
An internal staircase leads downstairs to the main entry landing. To the rear, a spacious family room, full bathroom, and laundry room can be nicely integrated into the main house or separated via the lockable door as a guest suite for extended family, an au pair, or a potential space for short-term rental income.
Outside, a sunny flat patio, with room for plants and furniture, is easily accessed from both the main entry landing as well as the lower-level rooms. Finally, enjoy interior access to a private 1-car garage with direct access into the home. An additional smaller car could fit in the driveway.
521 4th Avenue
This ultra-charming and freestanding cottage is situated at the rear of the lot, through the enclosed passage from the street. The spacious kitchen features stainless steel appliances, including a range with a detachable griddle, abundant cabinetry, space for an island, and a hidden under-stairs storage area. A sliding door leads directly to the yard and garden, offering minimal distance between you and that fancy new grill you want to get. Just next to the kitchen, the living/dining area features a large east-facing window and a coat closet. A full bathroom off the kitchen completes this level.
On the upper level, two peaceful bedrooms share a hallway half bath. The front-facing bedroom includes two closet spaces and enjoys beautiful soft morning light thanks to eastern exposure. The rear-facing bedroom opens directly onto a sunny deck, overlooking the outdoor spaces at the rear of the property. Take a moment to meditate, sip a mug of tea, and contemplate the good life in this tranquil neighborhood.
At the back of the lot, a second cottage with a vaulted ceiling provides additional flexibility, featuring a comfortable finished room with electricity and direct access to the rear patio. Make this sanctuary your own: the ultimate private home office, a modern-day rumpus room, a Peloton palace, a luminous artist’s studio, or whatever else you can imagine.
Notice the direct sunlight and multiple hose hookups around the outdoor space, making it a true gardener’s paradise. Enjoy the Meyer lemon trees planted across from the skylit veranda, and consider what you might add to the planter box. A private patio behind the primary cottage includes built-in benches and space to grill and dine. A private garage for one car completes the home.

One of San Francisco’s hidden gems, West Portal gets its name from the Muni Metro Station which runs through Twin Peaks Tunnel. Since the fog (known by locals as “Karl”) stops near the West Portal neighborhood, this is a great place to live if you enjoy bright blue skies. West Portal is filled with beautiful, traditional homes that are incredibly spacious. The Muni Station makes it easy for commuters to access the Financial District, Google, and the always-vibrant Union Square. Plus, Silicon Valley is easily accessible via the Highway 280, making West Portal a nice, central hub no matter where you work.
The West Portal neighborhood is ideal for the Bay Area resident who loves supporting local businesses. Find all your favorite books and shop for new ones at the BookShop West Portal, buy all your hardware needs at Papenhausen Hardware (opening soon after reconstruction), and find hidden musical treasures at The Music Store. These small shops (and many others) are what make West Portal such a tight-knit community.
The Stern Grove Festival takes place every summer just outside of the southwest section of West Portal. Each Sunday from the beginning of June through mid-August, locals and tourists gather for a day of music, food, and fun. Even when the festival ends, there is still plenty to enjoy and explore at the Sigmund Grove Recreation Center including an off-leash dog park, several outdoor athletic courts and fields, a playground, and the Tracedro House, which is reservable for private events.
