Set at the corner of two of the most desirable blocks in San Francisco, four blocks from the shops and restaurants of Cole Street, 5 Alma Street offers its next owner the scale and finishes of a private home, plus 4 premium rental units. The penthouse, a 2,100-square-foot luxury owner's unit, delivers vacant at close. It pairs preserved Edwardian woodwork and period charm with high-end modern systems. The chef's kitchen includes a Viking range and Sub-Zero refrigerator, and the living room frames an expansive view of San Francisco through its corner bay windows. Above, an exclusive-use roof deck takes in panoramic views of the Golden Gate towers and the Marin Headlands. The flexible plan adapts easily to as many as four bedrooms, or could convert to 2 top floor units without structural modifications. Effectively rebuilt by the current owner in 2007, 5 Alma is a turnkey property with updated electrical and plumbing, custom radiant heat beneath refinished hardwood, and high-density sound insulation throughout. Below the penthouse, four well-appointed rental units, each with in-unit laundry, provide steady income. Three-car parking includes a private garage space for the penthouse, with EV potential. The N-Judah is a short walk away for easy access to the Financial District. 5 Alma is a rare opportunity to acquire a landmark asset in one of San Francisco's most beloved neighborhoods.
