Welcome to 275 Mullen Ave
Brimming with possibility, this well-maintained Mid-Century home on Bernal Heights' coveted North Slope features vintage charm, a versatile layout, and a great location. Built in 1955 and lovingly cared for by the same family for the past 40 years, the home combines preserved architectural details like parquet wood floors with inlay, a corner fireplace, and vintage tile, with the potential to move right in or modernize and make it your own. The main level features an inviting living/dining space with built-ins, a skylit kitchen, two spacious bedrooms (one with downtown views), and a classic Mid-Century bathroom with restored original bathtub and classic tile work. Downstairs, a flexible "rumpus room" aka third bedroom suite with its own full bath opens opportunities for guests, a home office, gym or further development. Enjoy the large fenced backyard, perfect for relaxing or entertaining with a yard and citrus tree garden. A one-car garage with parking, laundry, and storage adds everyday convenience. Just minutes from Cortland Avenue amenities, Precita Park and Bernal Hill, playgrounds, the Mission District, and major transit options, this is your invitation to a sought-after lifestyle in Bernal Heights.
