3431 22nd, San Francisco, CA

1959, the year 3431-3433 22nd Street was constructed, was marked by a modern aesthetic in architecture, with buildings having smooth, flattened facades, often demarcated by different planes rather than physical decoration. Located in a row of housing likely built around the same time, this building is no exception. The decorative aspect of the faade is an inset vertical rectangle, highlighted by color, which suggests a certain separation of space within. The current owners took the interior down to the studs and recreated a modern space, but this time with more open entertaining rooms, separated by an arch that mimics the kitchen island lights and back-splash tiles. The curves both disrupt and complement the angular lines of the interior. Two generous bedrooms overlook the rear shared yard with the spacious hallway bathroom having a mirror-like effect caused by the floor-to-ceiling tile on the right wall as you enter. On the garage level is a bonus space used by the current owners as an office with an updated half-bath, all permitted in 2010. The shared yard includes a common gas burner, grill and sink. The location is exceptional, whether walking, biking, or driving to one's chosen destination. Schedule a Private Showing
