Built in 1931 during the early development of San Francisco's west side, this classic Spanish-style corner residence reflects a period when the area was still associated with the city's historic Outside Lands, giving it a character and architectural individuality that feels notably different from many homes built later in the neighborhood.
Set on a light-filled corner, near the edge of West Portal and Golden Gate Heights, the home enjoys bright interiors, a prominent setting, and a gracious floor plan that offers both presence and flexibility. A formal entry introduces the main living level, where elegant arched doorways lead to a spacious living room with a gas-assist fireplace and a formal dining, all adorned with traditional hardwood and parquet flooring which continues through the stairway and hallways, reinforcing the timeless feel of this well-built home.
The beautifully updated kitchen is both functional and inviting, featuring an LG gas range, attractive tilework, a cheerful eat-in area including breakfast bar and a wine refrigerator. A breezeway connecting the kitchen to the entry hall adds a distinctive architectural touch while enhancing circulation throughout the home. The upper level includes three bedrooms and two full bathrooms, with two bedrooms offering en-suite baths, plus a balcony that captures a glimpse of the Pacific Ocean.
At the ground level, an enclosed patio-garden with its own street entrance, creates a private outdoor retreat with a relaxed, lounge feel. The lower level adds substantial bonus space with a family room area, bedroom, and bath with shower, along with a laundry area, offering flexibility for guests, extended living, hobbies, or work-from-home needs. Pride of ownership is evident throughout, with the same owners caring for the property since 1991 and maintaining important systems over the years, including a newer water heater, electrical subpanel, and a furnace. Completing the home are a two-car garage and driveway parking for two additional vehicles.
Just a few blocks away you'll find West Portal Village and the Taraval shopping corridor, offering easy access to neighborhood shops, dining, and daily conveniences. Nearby access to the L Taraval MUNI streetcar line adds everyday ease, while 19th Avenue provides a practical route for commuters.

Property Tour
Neighborhood
In San Francisco's southwestern section, Parkside maintains its own distinct identity while sharing borders with the larger Sunset District. The neighborhood's sloping streets offer residents sweeping views of the city and surrounding parks.
What sets Parkside apart is its unique blend of urban convenience and residential tranquility. Streets like Escolta Way exemplify this balance, where single-family homes with tidy front gardens create a more spacious feel than many other San Francisco neighborhoods. The architectural landscape includes notable examples of mid-century design, particularly in the Outer Parkside area where developer Henry Doelger left his mark.
The neighborhood centers around the impressive Sunset Reservoir, which covers eight city blocks adjacent to Abraham Lincoln High School. This engineering feature has been transformed into an environmental asset, with its surface now supporting one of California's significant solar panel installations.
The area divides naturally into Inner and Outer sections. Inner Parkside, heading toward West Portal, features well-preserved homes and meticulously-kept streets. Outer Parkside has its own character, with rows of classic San Francisco homes, many maintaining their original architectural details while adapting to modern needs through thoughtful renovations and additions.
The community attracts a diverse population, from families drawn to the neighborhood's relative calm to professionals appreciating the accessible commute options.
