Affordable Carriage House in Bernal Heights in San Francisco

Charming Carriage House in Bernal Heights.

Located on Porter Street in the southeast part of San Francisco,
this former Carriage House has a colorful past. Once a Speakeasy
during Prohibition, it was later purchased and remodeled by a
Merchant Marine who lovingly created an atmosphere reminiscent of a
ship. Two units are available for rental. This a quiet location in a
bustling city. There is plenty of street parking in this area, no
parking permits required and no restrictions on length of stay, once
you park your car. It is very easy to take BART from the San
Francisco Airport to the units.

Excellent nearby public transportation makes this ideal for those
who are afraid to drive the steep hills and one-way streets of San
Francisco. The #23 bus line is a few doors down and will take you to
either Mission Street or the Glen Park Bart Station. The Carriage
House is located a 10 minute walk from Mission Street where you can
catch buses to downtown and connect to just about any part of the
city. Bernal Height’s main shopping district, Cortland Avenue, is
four blocks away and contains numerous shops, restaurants, video
stores, grocery stores, deli’s, laundromat, bank, bars, library and
much more. Be sure to take a walk down Cortland and enjoy all this
busy street has to offer. The Farmer’s Market is held on Saturday,
just down the hill - farmers from the central valley come to sell
their produce, flowers, herbs, chickens, seafood, honey, nuts and
breads. Arrive early to buy the freshest ingredients.

Crows Nest
This upper level junior one bedroom has individually hand-crafted
woodwork throughout. The beautiful workmanship is carried through
the entire unit, creating a nautical ambiance. Soak yourself at the
end of the day in the deep antique claw foot tub. Or, cook yourself
a warm meal as you look out over the yards of this quaint area. The
kitchen boasts new granite counters, fixtures and appliances. There
is more closet and cupboard space than you will be able to fill and
plenty of light pouring in from the east and west facing windows.
Additional sleeping accommodations are available by way of a futon
couch in the living room. The unit also has many antiques and new
furnishings.

Captain’s Quarters
This cozy bottom level studio apartment has new hardwood floors, a
built in double "captain’s bunk", a queen size Murphy Bed and plenty
of storage space. The bathroom has been completely remodeled with
glass brick, tile and marble, allowing light to filter in. The newly
renovated kitchen opens up to the living room and allows you to chat
with your partner or guests as you prepare meals. The kitchen window
looks out east upon a lovely garden and light filters through from
both east and west facing windows. There is no shortage of closet
and cupboard space in this unit. A sofa bed folds out for extra
sleeping quarters. Antiques and new furnishings are found throughout
the unit.
