Classic 1920's Mission TERRACE HOME

Situated on a quiet, tree-lined block in Mission Terrace — a neighborhood known for its charming single-family homes, strong community feel, and remarkable stability — this thoughtfully updated 1920s stucco residence offers modern conveniences while preserving its original character. Mission Terrace is a safe, close-knit community with little turnover, where long-time residents take pride in their homes and neighborhood.

Enjoy easy access to Glen Park’s restaurants, cafés and BART station (just .8 miles away), as well as quick freeway access for South Bay commuters. For even greater connectivity, Balboa Park BART Station lies only less than a mile from the home, offering additional transit options including multiple Muni lines.

The light-filled living room features bay windows and an original fireplace, opening to a formal dining room with classic double-inlay hardwood floors — perfect for hosting family gatherings and dinner parties.
The spacious eat-in kitchen is ideal for everyday living, equipped with stainless steel appliances (side-by-side refrigerator with ice/water, 4-burner gas range with Thermador hood, built-in oven and Bosch dishwasher), quartz countertops, Heath tile backsplash and clean maple cabinetry. A sunny breakfast area opens directly onto a large level deck overlooking the beautifully landscaped rear garden and hills beyond. Adjacent to the kitchen is an oversized pantry with built-in shelving, providing far more storage than is typically found in homes of this era.

Two bright main-level bedrooms include a front bedroom with a large picture window and a generous rear bedroom overlooking the garden. The remodeled main bath features a skylight, floating vanity, Grohe fixtures and walk-in shower with custom glass enclosure.

The lower level offers exceptional versatility for an owner-occupant with a large family room and a third en-suite bedroom — ideal for guests, an au pair, home office or extended family. Original carriage doors open directly to the level rear garden, which can also serve as a private parking pad. The garden is professionally landscaped with mature plantings including sculptural Agave parryi, Euphorbia rigida, Euphorbia dendroides & Agave attenuata. The home offers a total of three off-street parking spaces. This level also includes a full-size LG washer/dryer with utility sink and a large unfinished storage/workshop area.

Additional highlights include: • New double-pane windows throughout • Recessed lighting • Updated electrical • New foundation with seismic upgrades • Forced-air heating and 40-gallon water heater • Sump pump 

A rare opportunity to own a beautifully upgraded Mission Terrace home with true indoor/outdoor living, generous storage, outstanding transit access — less than a mile to both Glen Park and Balboa Park BART stations — and the peace of mind of a safe, stable neighborhood with enduring community ties.
