On the cusp of Dolores Park, but completely hidden from view, is a magical two-unit Victorian that brings Armistead Maupin's Tales of the City to mind as a place where the inimitable Mrs. Madrigal might live. Beyond a discreet gated entry, a pathway leads to another gate, and then to a secret leafy garden that offers the ultimate level of serenity and privacy. Purchased by TIC partners twenty years ago, each unit is now vacant, remodeled and available for the creation of a new TIC, or an opportunity for a single owner to occupy one unit and rent the other, or as a highly desirable investment property. On the first level, the garden unit is a sleek, luxurious 1BR home that has been fully remodeled, including a deluxe gourmet kitchen with Wolf gas range, marble countertops, Bosch dishwasher and Fisher & Paykel refrigerator. The full bathroom is equally chic with its porcelain-tiled shower, wall-mounted Toto toilet and stacked Asko washer & dryer. The bedroom overlooks the front garden, dappled by sunlight in both the morning and afternoon. Upstairs, is a 2BR/1BA home on two levels. Both bedrooms and a full-tiled bathroom with full-size laundry appliances are on the entry level. Hold onto your socks for the open LR-DR-K floor plan at the attic level with French doors that open to a balcony with one of those views that is wonderful to behold, but very hard to forget. The kitchen is a chef's dream with a gas stove, abundant cabinetry, and a complete complement of stainless-steel appliances. Imagine entertaining family and friends for the holidays or sipping Prosecco at the end of the day as you watch the sky take on lavender hues of sunset in the heart of America's most beautiful city. Both units are available for sale separately as TICs or purchase both units as a two-family dwelling, to occupy and enjoy or rent for top dollar in today's rental market. Superb and sublime! Welcome home to a new day at 3618-3816A 19th Street.
