A Russian Hill condo ideal for a Pied-a-Terre

By
Real Estate Agent with Compass CA DRE# 01215160

To better help my clients, I see a lot of properties every week, many in San Francisco. There always seems to be one or two special places and capture my interest and would provide great living for my clients.

Yesterday evening I took a look at an opportunity in a building I really like, The Landmark. Perched on a hillside on Russian Hill, adjacent to the lovely Ina Coolbrith Park, The Landmark has 60 condominium units stepping down the hill from Taylor to Mason street, on the staircase that is Vallejo Street (block too steep for cars!) and next to Broadway.

What an amazing opportunity to live so close to Chinatown, North Beach and the Financial District. Walk to work in the Financial District. Enjoy dining al fresco on Columbus Avenue in the heart of North Beach. Saunter over to City Lights Books and browse to your heart's content. Take your friends to a performance of the much-loved Beach Blanket Babylon just a few short blocks away. Hop on a cable car on Mason Street and head to Fisherman's Wharf.

Listed  by Christina Ciccone of Vanguard Properties, 2 Fallon Place #5 is a lovely remodeled Junior 1-bedroom/Studio of approximately 570 square feet, which would make a great full-time home for one, or a fabulous pied-a-terre. This unit has wonderful light and stunning views of Coit Tower on Telegraph Hill, the Transamerica Tower, bay bridge and more. There is one garage parking spot, laundry in the building, a tennis court and the park next door. Want even more views? Head to the shared roof deck!

Listed at $715,000, Christina represents the seller. If you are a buyer I'm ready to represent you if this is a place that intrigues you as it does me.

Urban living at its best!

Good morning, Lottie... I love Russian Hill! This is a lovely little condo, but I'll admit being more than a little gob-smacked by the price!

Good morning Lottie. Hard for a boy from the midwest to get his hands around San Francisco pricing. May you be the one to find the right buyer. Enjoy your day!

Looks to be an ideal location for those that like views and I don't know of anyone that doesn't like views!

Good morning, Barbara Todaro - I don't think this condo at Fallon Place on Russian Hill will languish on the market; it's a great opportunity.

Hi Brian England - the views from this Russian Hill condo are stunning, both in daytime and at night. The location can't be beat either and -- there is parking, always a plus in San Francisco.

Good morning Nina Hollander and Wayne Martin - real estate prices are high in San Francisco as in the Silicon Valley and everywhere in between. The location and views at The Landmark make it a good value, plus there is parking which not everyplace (especially a small unit) has. It won't be on the market long is my prediction.

Happy Sunday, George Souto - it would be delightful to wake to that view from the Russian Hill condo. Views aren't protected, but it's hard to think it would ever be greatly diminshed--we have the steep hill to thank for that!
