A stunning architectural time capsule, 1321 S. Van Ness Ave is a beautifully preserved 1890s Victorian single-family home rich with period craftsmanship, from ornate millwork and bay windows to original bronze door hardware and soaring 12-foot ceilings. Extensively renovated in 2014, the home seamlessly blends old-world character with modern functionality, offering three bedrooms, one and a half bathrooms, and approximately 1,820 square feet (per tax records) across two thoughtfully designed levels. Upon entering, you are greeted by a grand main level flooded with natural light. The formal double parlor with pocket doors and an elegant dining room that can accommodate ten people are true nods to the home's heritage, while the updated kitchen is tailored for today's lifestyle. A large center island wrapped in honed soapstone anchors the space, complemented by professional-grade appliances including a BlueStar range, Liebherr refrigerator, and Miele dishwasher. Two expansive glass doors open directly to a patio and lush, landscaped garden, creating effortless indoor-outdoor flow. Upstairs, all three bedrooms are thoughtfully positioned on one level. The oversized primary suite offers flexibility for an additional seating area, office area, or additional wardrobe space. Two bedrooms feature custom closets, while the rear bedroom has a terrace overlooking the garden. A remodeled full bathroom, hallway-length skylight, exposed beam ceilings, and conveniently located laundry complete the upper level. Additional highlights include radiant in-floor heating on the main level and rear guest bedroom, newly refinished hardwood floors, a spacious basement storage room, and one-car garage parking plus driveway parking. Detached on three sides, the home is bathed in natural light throughout. Ideally located in the heart of the Inner Mission just off the vibrant 24th Street corridor, the home offers immediate access to acclaimed restaurants, cafs, parks, and neighborhood boutiques. The 24th Street BART station is just two blocks away, and freeway access is incredibly close, ideal for Peninsula commuters. With a 100 Walk Score and 98 Bike Score, this is classic San Francisco living in one of San Francisco's most desirable neighborhoods.
