Accessibility

Neighborhood

THE NEIGHBORHOOD Outdoor enthusiasts, indoor bookworms, and foodies rejoice! Bernal Heights’ accessibility extends far beyond its practical commuter conveniences. Warm and inviting, Bernal Heights’ bright Victorian homes, organic markets, and gay and inclusive bars and cafes enhance its welcoming atmosphere. Nestled between the peaks of San Francisco’s rolling hills, this casual and approachable neighborhood is a charming residential respite in the City by the Bay. Bernal Height was voted the hottest neighborhood in America recently. Here’s what folks are saying: “Bernal Heights has “It”. It has the small town feel while still being in San Francisco. You can feel as though you’re separated from the craziness of the city when you get home, yet are so close if you desire a night on the town.” There are so many restaurants (too many to count), coffee shops, and cool places to go within walking distance of the house. It’s also within waling distance of our major public transportation (BART & MUNI) and near one of the most amazing spots in the entire city-Bernal Hill. We LOVE our neighborhood. And know you will too. And we are near the dynamic and Historic Mission district and the very hip and happening Valencia Corridor.

Guest access

You have Private Access to the entire 2nd Floor of this house, which is a 2 bedroom 1 bath apartment. You also have a Private Roof Deck which has unbelievable views of the city.

We felt like we really lucked out to find such a beautiful apt in SF. I travel there often enough to know a gem when I find one! Gorgeous views and I mean stunning! Access to BART, restaurants, stores etc only a 10 min walk away. The beds were comfy cozy, apartment was clean and full of amenities. Quiet and private. Would most definitely stay again in this fabulous flat. Not to mention historic as it is the oldest property in all of Bernal Heights! 10 out of 10 :)

This was literally the perfect place for our family to stay during our trip to San Francisco. Our home away from home that we looked forward to returning to after a day of sight seeing and adventures. The stylish mid-century decor was warm and inviting in this urban oasis. The location was perfect just outside of the hustle and bustle of the city but close enough to enjoy all San Francisco has to offer. It was spotlessly clean and the beds were super comfy. Marilee was a fabulous host and made our stay extra special… and the view!! Wow the view was absolutely stunning. The home is located on a fairly steep hill which I was a little concerned about but it was not an issue even for me and I’ve had back to back ACL surgical repairs ..just something to note. Again don’t miss out on this lovely home on your next trip to San Francisco.. so glad we chose this Victorian charmer.

This is a pretty hilly part of town, check online maps for Coso & Prospect streets. If not renting a car, or using Uber/Lyft, you will get your exercise in this neighborhood. Public transportation is the way to go in San Francisco. There are bus lines and train lines within walking distance of the home. If you have a car, the main expressways are also easily accessible. And of course, Uber and Lyft drivers are happy to pick you up!
