Formally known as the Sylvia Apartments, 1512 California Street is a 7-unit property situated on one of San Francisco's 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 owner's 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. This property is not currently on the mandatory seismic retrofit list and is equipped with an upgraded fire alarm system. The remodeled top-floor units include electrical sub-panels, in-unit laundry, dishwashers, skylights, and a second bathroom for added comfort. The remaining units retain classic period details, maintaining the building's historic charm while offering ample opportunities for modernization. With significant rental upside in a prime location near landmarks like Grace Cathedral, the Fairmont Hotel, and the Mark Hopkins, this property offers unparalleled access to the best that Nob Hill has to offer.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
