Tucked away behind a sleek privacy fence in the sunniest part of desirable Bernal Heights, this stunning architect-reimagined residence is a truly one-of-a-kind home that seamlessly blends modern sophistication with warmth and functionality. Completely rebuilt from the studs in 2015-2016, this two-level, three-bedroom, two and half bath home was meticulously redesigned with every detail in mind, offering the feel of newer construction while embracing effortless indoor-outdoor California living. Flooded with natural light, the home opens into dramatic living spaces with soaring ceilings, oversized skylights, hardwood floors, and an airy open-concept layout designed for both everyday living and entertaining. The chef's kitchen anchors the main level with quartz countertops, contemporary wood cabinetry, premium JennAir/JennStar appliances, a spacious island, prep sink/wet bar, and seamless flow into the dining and living areas. The kitchen and entertaining spaces open to a sunny rear deck and beautifully landscaped outdoor areas, creating an exceptional indoor-outdoor connection. The flexible three-bedroom layout offers versatility for families, guests, or work-from-home living. The serene primary suite opens directly to the backyard, creating a peaceful retreat surrounded by greenery and privacy. Spa-inspired bathrooms, solid core doors, Nest thermostats, integrated sound, a laundry room with pantry storage, and thoughtfully curated custom finishes elevate the home throughout. The private fenced backyard features multiple entertaining spaces including patio seating and newly installed turf, creating a quiet and unexpectedly serene extension of the home perfect for relaxing or hosting guests. Additional highlights include 2016 foundation, electrical, plumbing, roof, windows, insulation and heating. Garage parking with 240V EV charging, generous storage, a new sewer line, and fresh 2026 interior and exterior paint. Ideally located in sunny south Bernal Heights with an 89 Walk Score, the home is 8 min walk to Cortland Avenue, 10 minutes to Bernal Heights Park and local dining, 5 minutes to the Alemany Farmers Market and moments from the 101/280 freeways for the easiest Silicon Valley and SFO commutes. The home delivers a surprisingly serene living experience while keeping the very best of the Bay Area within easy reach. For buyers seeking newer construction, exceptional design, and everyday convenience, this is a rare Bernal Heights opportunity.
