Austin Klar presents a rare real‑estate development opportunity in San Francisco’s Russian Hill. The subject is a historic 3‑bedroom, 2.5‑bathroom, 1,430‑square‑foot home purchased in 2018, situated on a 37‑foot‑wide corner lot that offers unobstructed north‑ and east‑facing views of Alcatraz, the Pier 39 Ferris wheel, the Bay Bridge, and Coit Tower. The current owner has secured city approval to construct a duplex exceeding 5,600 square feet, eliminating the lengthy and costly permitting process for buyers. The lot’s size and location—steps from Hyde Street’s dining scene and Columbus Avenue in North Beach—make it a prime candidate for a trophy estate. Listed for under $2 million, the property combines flexible existing floor plans with the option to realize the approved expansion, offering significant value in today’s high‑interest‑rate environment. Prospective buyers are invited to request a tour or more information.

A once-in-a-lifetime development opportunity just hit the market in Russian Hill, and the views from this historic home are spectacular. The current owner bought this 3-bed, 2.5-bath, 1,430-square-foot property in 2018 and spent years in the depths of San Francisco planning to get approval to build an over 5,600-square-foot duplex on a 37-foot-wide corner lot with unobstructed north and east-facing views spanning from Alcatraz and the Ferris wheel at Pier 39 across the city to the Bay Bridge and Coit Tower. In this interest rate environment, I can't overstate the value of avoiding the years spent in painful neighborhood notification and city approval processes needed to get a permit like the one my client already has in hand. This is an opportunity to buy a home with a flexible existing two-level floor plan or to bring these development plans to life and customize the layout and finish of what would be a trophy estate in Russian Hill, steps away from the incredible food and bar scenes on Hyde Street in Russian Hill and Columbus Avenue in North Beach. The property just hit the market for under $2 million, and you won't find a better priced development opportunity on this big of a lot in this prime of a location in San Francisco. Reach out if you want a tour or more information. Hello.
