Why the Owner Chose Castro
I have lived in many of the City's neighborhoods since I arrived during the summer of love, and Corona Heights is my favorite. This is a quiet, centrally-located, semi-rural, cosmopolitan, slightly quirky part of town. It's parks and gardens, hidden stairways, available parking, and multi-cultural atmosphere make this an outstanding home base for you to relax, explore, and enjoy the best of San Francisco.
The Unique Benefits at this Apartment
Wake up to birds singing and sunshine pouring through skylights and windows; gaze overtrees and rooftop views: ttake a short walk down the hill to Castro Street or stroll across the street to the cliffs of Corona Heights. Thoughtfully designed over five years, ask David to share the stories about the evolution of this unusual layout and his choice of details that make this flat a unique place you will not forget.
