About 290 Santa Rosa Avenue
Welcome home to 290 Santa Rosa Avenue, a beautifully reimagined Marina-style Spanish Mediterranean gem in the heart of Mission Terrace, cherished by the same family for more than 50 years and ready to launch its next chapter with you. Rebuilt from the studs-out, this home offers the rare best of both worlds: timeless San Francisco charm paired with the comfort of a virtually new home, new HVAC (yes, air conditioning on each level), double-pane windows, NEW insulation, and electrical, plumbing, and lighting (with permits), so everything behind the walls is as thoughtfully done as what you see. Mission Terrace puts you exactly where you want to be, moments to I-280 for weekend runs down the Peninsula or up to Wine Country, a short hop to BART and Muni, and close to the outdoor fun of Balboa Park, trails of Glen Canyon, McLaren Park, and Mount Davidson for a hike before brunch on Ocean Avenue or the Glen Park Village. Walk to neighborhood favorites like Red Sea Pizza, Balboa Ice Cream, Tasty Coffee, and neighborhood institution Roxie's Food Center, everyday life right outside your door. Step inside, and on the main level you'll find 3 bedrooms and 1.5 beautifully renovated bathrooms, anchored by a chef's kitchen with abundant counter space and brand-new stainless-steel appliances, quartz countertops, a dishwasher with thoughtful design and contemporary finishes flowing throughout opening to formal dining room, honoring the home's original character while feeling entirely fresh. Downstairs, a newly renovated 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom guest and multi-generational suite opens onto the level rear garden, a private retreat for extended family and guests, or the work-from-home office with media space and wet bar you've been dreaming of. Outside, a set-back front parking space and a 1-car interior garage with generous storage keep daily life simple, while the level, dog-ready rear private garden offers your own outdoor escape in the city. After five decades in one family's loving care, this home has been given a remarkable second beginning, rebuilt with care and ready for whoever's ready to make it theirs. See it for yourself, and imagine the life you'll build here. A must see home!
