Property Details

Set on a quiet side street in the heart of the dynamic Castro, 39 Hartford is equal parts peaceful retreat and launchpad into the best of city living. This top-floor 3+ bedroom / 1.5 bathroom condo blends charming Victorian details with an inviting social flow in a fabulous central location. Ascend the entry stairs to a skylit main hallway and a home brimming with character: oak floors with inlaid borders, glass-knobbed doors with ornate backplates, graceful crown molding, soaring ceilings, and more.

The formal dining room, adorned with a decorative fireplace and a built-in sideboard with stained-glass doors, welcomes gatherings. Continue to the recently renovated kitchen, where cooking is a pleasure with spacious quartz counters, a central island, and stainless-steel appliances. Grab a snack at the handy breakfast bar, or throw some laundry into the convenient washer/dryer as you cook. The living room, open to the kitchen, overlooks elegant palms and other greenery in the backyard.

Bedrooms are positioned toward the front of the home, away from the entertaining rooms. The first offers dual closets and east-west light. The second is a fashionista’s dream, with built-in bureaus and shelving within a windowed walk-in. The third boasts a fireplace surround, chandelier, and views of Sutro Tower and Twin Peaks. The fainting room next door could serve as a fourth bedroom, office, creative studio, or whatever your life requires. One full and one half-bath complete this level. Outdoors, enjoy a shared backyard with a stone patio, perimeter garden, and firepit table. Ample storage is available in the shared basement and private attic.

Rated a “Walker’s + Rider’s Paradise” with “Excellent Transit” by Walkscore.com, this location offers exceptional citywide access. The Castro Muni station, with subway service plus streetcars and buses, is just two blocks away. Local shops, restaurants, and nightlife line nearby streets and beckon you to explore, but the atmosphere on this residential block remains calm. Central yet serene, with classic style, 39 Hartford is the perfect setting for your San Francisco story.
