The holidays are making the real estate pickings pretty slim, but there are still some good ones out there if you look enough.

I saw this Cole Valley home at 121 Beulah on Tuesday tour and there’s a lot of potential here.  Situated on a deep lot, this Edwardian home has very generous rooms, which is unusual for a Victorian.  It really seems like the home is wider than 25 feet, but the tax record shows a standard 25 foot wide lot.  Must have been a custom home when built and has not been on the market in 40+ years.

The kitchen is dated (which doesn’t bother me) and is very Sea Ranch’y’.  The bath is also dated, but charming.  A separate cottage in the back garden with a bath and kitchen would make a fantastic home office.  A large garage at the lower floor and a fabulous location near Golden Gate Park.  Available by appointment.

Two bedrooms, double parlor, dining room, one bathroom.  Listed for $1,399,000 and there may be a little more room in the price.  It came on the market at $1,499,000.

January 2011 update: The property is pending.  Sources tell me under asking.

Second January 2011 update: The property closed at $1,250,000 on 1/14/11.  Someone got a great deal.
