Ashbury Heights Centenarian Prime For Million-Dollar Makeover
We love seeing grand old homes with good bones and full of possibility, and this one just outside the gateway to Ashbury Terrace certainly hits the mark. The listing agent of 935 Ashbury Street notes that it “has been owned by the same family for generations” — and how could you not fall in love with it?! The house just landed on the market with a $3,580,000 list price, and seller is set to review offers by Thursday, 12 May 2022. Interested buyers will need to act quick.

The home is well-positioned to become a highly visible showpiece. From the distinctive twin-gabled facade to the grand entryway to the elegant woodwork throughout, there’s no shortage of wow-factor features. The next steward of this beauty will surely be working with a large renovation budget, and our fingers are crossed that the home’s integrity is preserved in the course of bringing it into the 21st century.
Ashbury Heights’ predominately residential composition and traditional vibe juxtaposed on the urban landscape is enchanting, and convenient. Trendy Cole Valley to the west, idyllic Buena Vista Park to the east, and colorful Haight Ashbury to the north can be reached within minutes. A full spectrum of uniquely San Francisco experiences is never too far away from this geographically central enclave.
Its status as one of San Francisco’s most coveted neighborhoods is underpinned by the extraordinarily low turnover of homes. Data reported by SFAR MLS indicates that an average of approximately 10 single-family homes have changed ownership annually over the past 5 years. Check out some recent sold swoon-worthy specimens, below.
