Welcome to 3879 17th Street, situated in an iconic Italianate 2-unit building at the crux of Mission Dolores and Eureka Valley / Castro! This striking building showcases racketed eaves and paired arched windows, echoing San Francisco’s early 19th-century architectural style.

Inside, the home unfolds as a functional and stylish fusion of heritage and modernity. The living room is situated at the front of the home and is steeped in period beauty. A gorgeous white mantel with intricate scrollwork and floral relief, coved ceilings, dentil crown molding, and a bay window perfectly frames the leafy view of tree-lined 17th Street-- the perfect nook for a display credenza or home-office setup.

Transitioning to the formal dining room, the home's Victorian roots continue to shine, with original picture rails, wainscoting, and a built-in glass-faced hutch featuring beadboard backing and arched trim. A modern chandelier hangs from the antique ceiling medallion, representing the modern / vintage juxtaposition found throughout the home.

The rear of the residence features a renovated, sunlit kitchen defined by dramatic veined marble counters and backsplash, floating shelving, and sleek flat-panel cabinetry that keeps the focus on form and material. A 5-burner gas cooktop by Bertazzoni and stainless appliances enhance the functionality of the space without disturbing its sleek design. Other appliances include a beautiful Fisher & Paykel refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher, hood over range, and sink with disposal.

Just beyond, the breakfast area is framed by oversized sliders that open to a rear deck with tree-top views stretching across gorgeous gardens to Liberty Hill. This flexible space flows effortlessly between casual dining, a work-from-home nook, or even a creative studio. A full-size washer/dryer by LG is located in the adjacent laundry room.

The deck descends to the home's shared garden —a lush, brick-lined patio shaded by mature trees and ringed by layered planting beds.

Two generously scaled bedrooms sit quietly at the center of the home, each graced with high ceilings, original trim, and natural light. The primary bedroom features twin arched windows that echo the front façade’s form, while the secondary bedroom offers dual exposures and vintage character throughout.

The tastefully updated bathroom features a clawfoot tub with exposed pipe shower, white subway tile with bullnose trim, black-and-white hex mosaic flooring, and dual windows that bring in soft light and fresh air.

Throughout the home, you’ll find a cohesive architectural narrative—picture rails, fluted door casings, tall baseboards, and period wainscoting—all freshly painted in gallery white to let the home’s light and geometry speak. The central hallway offers plenty of wall space for your favorite art and photography, accentuated by the track spots that hang from the ceiling.

3879 17th Street represents a wonderful opportunity to experience the best of modern living while honoring San Francisco's unique architectural past. Please contact The Binnings Team for a showing or for more information!
