The story
- Basement
On a quiet, tree-lined block just steps from Holly Park, 563 Andover is a spacious and inviting Bernal Heights home where generous proportions, natural light, privacy and Edwardian character come together. Spanning two thoughtfully arranged levels, the residence offers an appealing balance of traditional architecture and comfortable everyday living, with expansive gathering spaces, four bedrooms, and beautiful Bay views. A gracious entry hall introduces the home's generous scale, leading to an expansive main living room designed for both relaxed everyday living and entertaining. At the front of the house, a charming bedroom or home office features classic bay windows, a fireplace, and abundant natural light; a versatile space equally suited to working from home or welcoming guests. The impressive kitchen is bright and beautifully appointed, featuring quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry, and an oversized greenhouse window that captures the morning light. At the back, the dining room opens directly onto a private, sun-drenched deck, where sweeping Bay views create a memorable backdrop for morning coffee, outdoor meals, and evenings with friends. With the home occupying much of its lot, this elevated outdoor retreat offers a wonderful combination of privacy, sunshine, and open outlooks. Upstairs, three generously sized bedrooms provide comfortable accommodations, including a primary bedroom with Bay views. A spacious bathroom features both a separate shower and a jetted soaking tub. The upper landing introduces another layer of versatility, with a sitting area that lends itself beautifully to a home office, reading nook, or children's play space, along with the convenience of laundry on the same level. A second full bathroom, extensive storage in the unfinished basement, and a compact one-car garage round out the home's practical amenities. Just two blocks from Cortland and Bernal Heights' lively collection of neighborhood cafs, restaurants, independent shops, and Good Life grocery store . Nearby transit and easy access to Highways 101 and 280 make connections throughout San Francisco and beyond remarkably convenient.
