A southwest-facing corner condo filled with light right where the Mission, Bernal Heights, and Noe Valley meet. Light fills the condo throughout the day, with Sutro Tower framed perfectly against the skyline and the hills beyond. The layout feels easy and intuitive, with separation that makes sense. The living and dining areas are open yet well defined, anchored by a fireplace that grounds it all. It brings people together while still giving each zone its own purpose. These spaces open directly onto a generous private balcony, creating seamless indoor-outdoor living. Coffee in the morning, and by evening it's where everyone ends up before dinner. The kitchen sits at the center with plenty of counter space, abundant cabinetry, a gas range, and a wide counter bar that naturally becomes the gathering spot. Both bedrooms are down the hall from the main living areas, creating natural separation. The second bedroom flexes easily, whether set up for guests, work, or both. The second bath is roomy and comfortably accommodates guests, everyday routines, and the in-unit laundry without feeling tight. The primary suite feels private and generous, with multiple closets and a bath complete with a deep soaking tub, separate shower, and double sink vanity. Parking is included and elevator access keeps things simple. Upstairs, the rooftop deck opens to sweeping city views and wide sky, an easy spot to linger, connect, or take in the skyline with friends. Bernal Heights Park is nearby, with other green spaces woven into the neighborhood for a quick run, a walk with the dog, or time on the hill. Safeway is close, Whole Foods on 24th is easy, and the restaurants and cafes along both Valencia and Mission are steps away. Freeway access is simple, and MUNI and tech shuttle stops keep commuting flexible. A corner condo positioned exactly where you want to be.
