Location: 720 Shrader Street
Size: 4-bed, 2-bath; 1,817-square feet
Price: $989,000
Pitch: "Top floor, light filled, Victorian home in wonderful Cole Valley. Beautiful original features combine with sleek modern finishes in this period classic which has a flowing and flexible floor plan. Side-by-side parking for a large car + huge storage in garage. Shared yard."
Our Take: You had us at "light-filled" and "top floor." This Victorian's facade has got a fabulous green and pink palette. We'd be stoked to come home to it, as it's very welcoming. And the shared backyard is lovely. Monthly HOA dues are unlisted, which is a bummer.
Open House: Sunday, 1 to 2:30pm
Location: 1117 Cole Street
Size: 3-bed, 3-bath; 2,441-square feet
Price: $1,695,000
Pitch: "Choice location just two blocks from the hart of Cole Valley and the N-Judah to downtown. Attractively renovated single-family home. Also works as two-unit. Separate entrance."
Our Take: Since it last sold in March of 2003 for $900,000, we're going to assume some serious remodeling has been done since then (hence the substantial price increase). The kitchen's gorgeous, as are the bathrooms. The unoccupied inlaw would be great if you're looking to pull in a little extra cash each month. Otherwise: very spacious home office!
Open House: Sunday, 2 to 4pm
Location: 1207 Cole Street
Size: 2-bed, 1-bath; unlisted square footage
Price: $899,000
Pitch: "Gracious 2 bedroom Edwardian Condo in the heart of Cole Valley. Located on a lovely tree lined street, this special offering provides the open floor plan you have been looking for. Beautifully restored hardwood flooring throughout, in unit laundry, 1 car side by side parking and additional storage."
Our Take: The living room features a wood burning fireplace and gorgeous architectural windows. But we would hope that a two bedroom condo with a price tag that's close to a million bucks would have some bells and whistles. Monthly HOA dues are not listed.
Open House: Sunday, 2 to 4pm
