Always a Great Address: Elegance & Convenience Converge
Built in 2007 and designed by Kerman Morris Architects on the site of an old paint store, the Citrino is an innovative residential condo building with open breezeways, lush landscaping featuring more than 45 citrus trees on its sheltered rear terrace and roof deck. As you walk in, you can hear trickling water from the central fountain surrounded by tree ferns, and you instantly feel at home, and removed from the exciting city outside. Pride of ownership and the efforts of the easily accessed, professionally managed HOA are apparent with each step you take inside the building. The building is named for the many citrus trees that grace the common areas, including the central courtyard, the large sunny rear terrace (with dog run), and the relaxing roof terrace with views of downtown.
Unit #5 is located in the quiet center of the building off of a spacious terrace with mature landscaping and a tinkling fountain. The 2nd floor also provides direct access to the citrus ringed rear terrace the building is named for. It has beautiful oak floors and great floorplan. A generous great room provides entertaining/living and cooking space that is well separated from the very private bedroom located beyond the hall bath. The kitchen features Scavolini cabinets and a gas range and stainless fridge and dishwasher. The living room/dining room is focused on a free-standing Italian style gas fireplace which provides instant warmth when needed. Laundry hookups are in the hall closet next to the spacious full bath with shower over tub.
The location is enviable and exciting – right in the center of the Mission with access to all that it has to offer. You can walk to Dolores Park, the Lazy Bear, Tartine Manufactory for gourmet dining, Gus’s for amazing groceries, or enjoy more casual eateries such as Little Star Pizza, the Rite Spot Cafe or Mission Bowling Club; or even walk away snacks at Chile Lindo Empanadas or La Cumbre (credited by some as being the birthplace of the Mission Super Burrito!); and get to work QUICK on your bike, your shuttle, BART or on the freeway. This really is IT when it comes to location.
