Located in the heart of Bernal Heights, 511 Anderson is a warm and welcoming Victorian home built in 1900 and featuring an abundance of period details. The main level features high ceilings and hardwood floors, and incorporates a bright living room with a bay window, cove ceiling and built-in bookcases, a formal dining room with original wainscotting and back yard access, a well-laid out kitchen with plenty of cabinet & counter space, two bedrooms – one with an expansive view toward the East Bay, and a full bathroom with a traditional claw foot tub. Upstairs, an easily accessible attic provides the opportunity to create a personalized space, whether it's a home office or a creative studio.
One of the standout features of this property is the private backyard oasis with its brick-laid patio, hot tub, covered outdoor sitting area & raised garden beds. Accented by a vibrant bougainvillea and mature fig and lemon trees, it is sure to please avid gardeners and is the perfect spot to sip your morning coffee or to unwind after a long day.
The spacious full-height 1-car garage offers storage and workshop areas and makes for endless expansion potential within the envelope. The home has been upgraded with solar panels, 200 amp electrical service and a 240 volt 50 amp receptacle for an EV charger.
This beautiful home is just three blocks from shops, cafes, restaurants and fitness options on Cortland Avenue, and a short walk to Holly Park, the Alemany Farmers Market, and the fabulous city and Bay views from atop Bernal Hill. It is well-served by public transportation (three Muni bus lines, close to Glen Park BART) and is convenient to freeways.
