And don't forget to wear kevlar to the open house.

Well, there certainly are lots of scuzzy homeless/druggies in the area, but I never thought of that block as potentially dangerous in terms of violent crime. Is that true?

nope, not true at all.

Anon's comment about kevlar demonstrates that he/she knows very little about this area. This is not an area with a lot of violent crime. Not even close.

If I hit the superlotto I will buy this post haste. What a cool property and boy you want to talk about a central location. Not too sure about the blue cabinetry but that could be remedied.

I don't think this is a kevlar area by any means.

But what would you do with the dojo in the picture above?

Daniel-san: paint the fence!

this block may not be a kevlarr block, but the violent crime rate is really high jsut 3 blocks away. Personally I like to be able to walk more than 3 blocks from my home at night.

I am absolutely stunned Spencer.

I really like this place, but have no idea what I would do with all that space or that tea room.

A whorehouse right across from a Baptist church. Only in SF!

The ongoing construction next door would be a major nuisance for the tenant.

Is there ongoing construction? I haven't seen any sign of activity on the site for months now. Is the project still on (I hope!)?

Totally not a dangerous neighborhood at all, it is in Hayes Valley for crying out loud. The owner is my Zen Master; retiring from his career as an architect and planning on moving to France. The "blue" cabinets are actually a blue-green lacquer and were imported from Germany. I wouldn't consider changing them at all, to me they are the selling point of the kitchen!

1.7 Mil for a refurbed condo in the "upper market"? The buyer should convert the tea room to a sauna cuz they're going to take a major bath on this place.

I doubt that very highly. It's testing the waters, true, but it's practically 4000 feet with two car parking and it is Hayes Valley. I guess it will sell for nearly asking or better.

I really like the area. A friend bought a nearby condo and loves it. And at $440 psf, i've got to agree with fluj.

since when is waller in hayes valley? this is lower haight/upper market.

I would consider any block adjacent to Octavia Blvd to be in Hayes Valley.

17 photos and no shots of the two bathrooms?

That's a red flag (not to be confused with a blue kitchen).

hayes valley ends at oak st IMHO. the link you provided was made up by realtors. it has the whole lower haight area listed as hayes valley.

this is lower haight.

Haha, ok, well, I would consider anything lower than Laguna to not be in the lower haight. I do agree that that map extends hayes valley really far west.

Hayes Valley Boundaries

Although there are no hard boundary lines marking the area, the Hayes Valley Neighborhood Association suggests these borders:

* North: Fulton Street
* South: Market Street
* East: Franklin Street
* West: Fillmore/Webster
"

I'd be hard pressed to include anything past Buchanan... this is dumb.

This is just off Octavia Boulevard, right? It's Hayes Valley.

Agreed!
