Magical alley streets can be found throughout San Francisco, some which cut through a block, while others are only a half-block long. 40 White is on one of these special streets, effectively a mini-neighborhood within Russian Hill, which typically only sees people who live there or are visiting family or friends. A mix of older and newer buildings add to the street’s character, with 40 White dating from 1946. Two-stories over a garage, 40 White has 2 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, city views from the roof (interior access), a brick patio, and 2-car tandem parking. But with a Walk Score of 97, who needs to rely on a car?

Neighborhood
Russian Hill is one of San Francisco’s most distinctive neighborhoods, celebrated for its steep hills, sweeping views, and charming mix of historic and modern architecture. The area features everything from classic Edwardian and Victorian row houses to elegant mid-century and contemporary residences. One of its most famous landmarks is Lombard Street, often called “the crookedest street in the world,” with its series of eight sharp switchbacks. Another notable site is the Feusier Octagon House, one of San Francisco’s few surviving 19th-century octagon homes, located on Green Street.
The Russian Hill neighborhood enjoys a prime location, bordered by Pacific Heights and Marina to the west, Fisherman's Wharf and North Beach to the north/east, and Nob Hill and Chinatown to the south. This central position provides residents with endless opportunities for exploration and entertainment.
The area's character shines through its hillside garden climbs, beautiful parks, and local landmarks like the original Swensen's Ice Cream Store at Union and Hyde. The streets of Jackson, Union, and Hyde feature boutiques and restaurants with a distinct European flair, while Polk Street between Union and Broadway offers excellent shopping options.
Proximity to Fisherman's Wharf provides both recreational and cultural opportunities. The Maritime National Historical Park, including the Maritime Museum and historic vessels along Hyde Street Pier, offers educational experiences. Local dining options range from casual favorites like bubble tea to traditional fish and chips.
Despite its steep terrain and famous hairpin turns, Russian Hill maintains excellent walkability. The Financial District and Civic Center lie within a thirty-minute walk, and several Muni routes serve the area, providing convenient transportation alternatives.
