theFrontSteps brings our attention to a mystery door that's about eight feet above the dining room floor of a condo in Noe Valley. Is there a balcony attached to the door? No. Is it some type of strange window treatment? Unlikely. It's just a door. We have a few theories.

1. This door is actually a vault that holds all of the owner's valuables. It's up high so robbers can't easily get to it.

2. This door is actually a secret shelter for when the inevitable zombie apocalypse happens.

3. This door is here because some contractor who worked on the space had an extra door laying around and was like "I'm not going to waste this inventory."

Have your own theory? Let us know in the comments!

Wednesday, May 11, 2011, by Sally Kuchar This two-level, top floor condo in Bernal Heights is quite a looker, and at $789,000, we think it's reasonably priced. The digs are just over 2,100 square feet, and there's three bedrooms and two bathrooms. So, about those bathrooms. How do we feel about this semiprivate "bathroom" in the unwarranted master suite? It's as listed as a full bath, so there's a toilet in there somewhere. Cast your vote below. · 118 Virginia [Redfin]
