In the case of 171 Buena Vista Ave. East, the story is one of television fame, as this two-unit building was once the setting of a popular American sitcom, in part because of the incredible bay views afforded by its many windows. Today, this property is for sale, asking $3.5 million. The building is actually multi-family, consisting of two units. We only see the empty unit in the listing photos.
Originally, 1776 Green St. was an auto works garage, built in Classic Revival style by owner and builder Sven J. Sterner, with help from a carpenter named Charles M. Olson. A historic resource evaluation completed on the property by the San Francisco Planning Department revealed details of the building and its creators, pointing out though neither Sterner nor Olson was an architect, their design for 1776 Green St. has endured "with a high degree of its integrity."
Uniquely situated on a vertiginous Russian Hill lot, 1135 Green St. is one of three homes that make up "Greencliff" and is a historic property created by an influential San Francisco architect in 1908. For sale now at $2.995 million, this Tudor-inspired condo offers vintage appeal as well as modern innovations - including a striking underground garage that could easily accommodate the Batmobile.
