251 Peru Avenue

Contemporary 1990s large family home. There are surprises on each level of this unique, modern, well-kept, custom-built home. The current owner has meticulously cared for their home, and it shows. Updates include windows, roof, floors, and more. The upper level features a spacious living room with picturesque windows that take full advantage of the setting sun. This level features a modern design with entertaining in mind. Functionality throughout. Living room and dining room combo. The dining room has a pass-through bar from the modern kitchen. Updates include newer floors and granite countertops, all showing true pride of ownership. SW orientation and 4 skylights in the house let the sun shine through. The views from the rear are of downtown San Francisco -- who can ask for anything more. 2nd level (garage level), has a 4th bedroom a 3rd bath and a bonus room that can be an office or more. With a little tweaking, you'll have a separate guest suite and/or more (ADU perhaps?). Garage may fit 3+ cars, has a laundry area, storage areas, utilities, and access to the yard, Lower Level: there are fully independent living quarters with their own bath -- rumpus room? game room? study? wet bar? Original to the house when built, makes it both interesting and potentially usable as a second ADU(?) (NOTE: ADUs are subject to the City's review and approval). Low-maintenance yard with storage huts which may be removed. Turnkey home offering plenty of space, flexibility, and possibilities, along with the iconic SF skyline views. Walk to Balboa Park or Glen Park BART station, or a short drive to freeway access for the commute; or, if you prefer public transit, it's close by. Convenience in this diverse and friendly San Francisco neighborhood known as #TheExcelosior district.
