NOT IN MLS! Stepping through the historic gate and walking up through the deep front yard,  you will feel the stresses of the city dropping away.  You might feel like you are in Marin, or Berkeley… but you are conveniently located just a few blocks from Glen Park Village & Bart, Noe Valley, and Bernal Heights and half a mile from the 280 on-ramp that will speed you to a Peninsula commute.

Diablo.  Both bedrooms have direct access to the deck, which has south eastern exposure and enjoys privacy from adjoining homes.  The master bedroom also has a private deck that overlooks the rear garden.  Above this level, at the very top of the home, there is pent room with windows on three sides and a view balcony.  This has been used as a bedroom but may or not be legal for that usage.  The amenities of the property are completed by front and rear landscaped gardens, a rear garden cottage and a large one car garage.

The 102-year old Zazzle Bay to Breakers 12k is one of the world’s largest and oldest footraces, held annually in San Francisco, California. The name reflects the traditional course which takes tens of thousands of participants from the northeast end of downtown near The Embarcadero (the bay side of the city) to the west end and the breakers of Ocean Beach. Originally started as a spirit-lifter of civic morale after the devastating earthquake and fires of 1906, the 7.46 mile race features world-class athletes, costumed runners and fun loving participants out for a great day of running or walking through beautiful San Francisco.

This historic event is USA Track & Field certified and registration is required, but this isn’t just a race for the serious runner. In the true spirit of San Francisco, the race is a celebration for everyone. Families, weekend runners and walkers, and thousands of costumed participants (there’s a contest for the costumes, too!) make their way through the heart of the city cheered on by 100,000 spectators, cheering and bursts of live music. Throughout its long history, Bay to Breakers has been a showcase for the City’s irrepressible color, spirit and affection for eclectic traditions. This is a quintessential San Francisco experience and a true reflection of the heart of the city.

Paragon’s May 2013 Snapshot

April’s market was basically more of the same of what we’ve been seeing for the last 12-16 months in San Francisco. Virtually all of our statistics are at historic or near-historic readings: number of homes for sale way down, months supply of inventory way down, percentage of listings accepting offers way up, days on market way down — all leading to overall house and condo median and average prices climbing to perhaps the highest points they’ve ever reached. We will add the usual caveat that no one or two months of data should be considered definitive until confirmed over the longer term: though there is no doubt that San Francisco is experiencing a red hot market, prices can fluctuate for various reasons, including seasonality.

We will have to wait and see if the current heights reached in home prices are the new baseline, a springtime blip, or a way station to even higher real estate values.
