500 Ellington, in the same family for nearly 50 years, has been thoughtfully renewed inside and out, and is ready for its next caretakers. This turnkey 2-bedroom / 1-bathroom single-family home occupies a corner lot and is accessed from the street by vintage terrazzo steps.
Upon entry, the foyer greets you with a convenient coat closet. The front-facing living room features an elegant fireplace with stone surround and tall double-paned corner windows with views from Sutro Tower to McLaren Park. The formal dining room provides the perfect space to gather for festive and everyday meals. These areas feature beautiful crown molding and oak parquet floors.
The eat-in kitchen has been outfitted with a suite of brand-new stainless-steel appliances, including a refrigerator, hooded gas range, and dishwasher. Take advantage of spacious cabinets and counter space on every wall to make preparing meals easy, and relish peaceful neighborhood outlooks, with plenty of space for a small island or breakfast nook.
Turn toward the rear of the home and find two large bedrooms, each with good natural light, sizable closets, and beautifully refinished wood floors. The adjacent bathroom, renovated with carefully selected fixtures and floor tiles, features a shower stall and separate tub to stretch out and relax. A linen closet completes this level.
Internal stairs lead to the lower level, where the garage accommodates 2 cars side-by-side. A deep closet with built-in shelves offers ample storage, and a laundry area with sink is provided. This floor also includes a generous bonus room – imagine it as an office, playroom, gym, workshop, or guest space, or a base for future expansion. The backyard includes a patio with planter beds on the perimeter and a peekaboo view of Salesforce Tower.
With its freshly painted exterior, this home has curb appeal as well as solid bones. Its sunny Outer Mission location enjoys easy access to the freeway and public transit, shops/restaurants along Mission Street, and schools and playgrounds. WalkScore.com rates it “Very Walkable” with “Excellent Transit.”
