Size: 2-bed, 1-bath; 1,628-square-feet
Price: $675,000
Pitch: "Beautiful single family home with a legal in-law unit. The main house upstairs has 2 bedrooms, a lovely South facing living room with wood-burning fireplace, formal dining room and an efficient, updated kitchen. The lower level has a legal in-law unit with eat-in kitchen with a built-in booth. Through out the property are beautiful wood plank floors."
Our Take: Parts of this home's interior have got that retro look that some folks are quite fond of- complete with ochre colored fridge in the kitchen. Thankfully, if there ever was a shag carpet, it's now been replaced with beautiful hardwood flooring. Also, how adorable is that eat-in kitchen nook?
Open House: Sunday, 2PM to 4PM
Size: 2-bed, 1-bath; 1,450-square-feet
Price: $659,000
Pitch: "NOT on lockbox. Classic Tunnel Entrance Full 5 Central Sunset Home w/ Bonus Room & Bath Down and Sunny landscaped Yard: hardwood Floors, wood burning fireplace, formal DR & LR, updated kitchen, new paint inside and out."
Our Take: This home is so charming with its parquet floors, green and yellow tiled bathroom and lush backyard. A note from an agent that stopped in to check it out: "Very well kept up property. Shows well."
Open House: Sunday, 2PM to 5PM
Size: 2-bed, 1-bath; 1,425-square-feet
Price: $799,000
Pitch: "This beautiful home in the Central Sunset has it all. The floor plan provides a spacious living room with a corner fireplace, formal dining room with center patio, breakfast nook adjacent to the bright kitchen, two good size bedrooms and one bath on the main level. Some ocean views. Downstairs is a large family room and 1.25 bath , high ceiling and back yard. Amenities include hardwood floors and double pane windows, new paint inside and out. Great location near Judah MUNI, Noriega shopping, restaurants and schools."
Our Take: We're wondering why this home's price tag is so much more than the others. Same specs, basically, but $561 per square is quite a bit more than the neighborhood average of $454.
Open House: Sunday, 2PM to 4PM

Price a property correctly and it will sell. Priced perfectly, it will sell for over the asking price, as in the case of 1218 44th Avenue, the 2-bed, 1-bath fixer with a huge yard that went on the market in late June for $399,000 and closed escrow yesterday for $430,000. In the family/surfer/hipster-friendly Outer Sunset, the listing garnered some comments, including one from the realtor complaining about our 300K estimate for a stylish renovation:
You obviously don't understand the demographics of the Outer Sunset or what construction costs are. $300,000 worth of construction costs??? I will have multiple offers tomorrow. Thank you, Kevin Birmingham (Listing Agent).We're not sure what he means by "demographics" but in a city as politically correct as San Francisco, it sounds like code for something. As for construction costs, when you factor in all the associated expenses of renovation in this town, we'll stick to our number if it's all done with permits. Plus wonder if 1218 44th Avenue has a future date with Planning Commission staff. Kudos to all- to Kevin for getting a great price for his client and to the buyer for snagging a house in a great location- for under $500K.
