A rare find - Russian Hill 2 unit mixed use property. 1735 Leavenworth is the full floor upper flat at 1145 sf (from the Matterport plans as in the website) and there are 3 bedrooms, a split 1 bath, living room, and very large kitchen/dining family room with lovely north westerly views (Sutro Tower in sight). The Laundromat at 1733 Leavenworth is 1165 sf and has 23 washers and 16 dryers (majority are operational) Every time we show the property at least 2 or 3 people walk by and ask when are you opening the laundromat? The basement level is 1005 sf and has an internal staircase to the laundromat. The total square footage of the upstairs flat (1145 sf =/- +) main level laundromat (1165 sf+/-) and basement level (1002 sf +/-) = 3312 +/- sf (per Matterport/graphic artist). Parking There are 3 garage (side by side) parking spaces (a single garage and a double garage). The single garage space is large enough for plenty of storage and should command premium rent. Since the tenant in the single garage does not live on the property this parking space is not subject to rent control and nor eviction controls. The other two parking spaces are currently vacant. This property represents a unique opportunity for a developer or investor to change the use of the laundromat to another concept or build residential (with parking!). Tour before it's gone.
