About 1512 California St
Formally known as the Sylvia Apartments, 1512 California Street is a 7-unit property situated on one of San Franciscos most iconic streets in Nob Hill. Built in 1914, this wood-frame building presents an excellent opportunity for value-add improvements, offering significant potential for both investors and owner-users. The building consists of five 2-bedroom, 1-bath units, along with two remodeled 2-bedroom, 2-bath units that feature in-unit laundry. The top-floor owners unit, along with a large one-car garage, will be delivered vacant upon the close of escrow, providing immediate flexibility for personal use or rental income.
