What the Owners Love About 160 Santa Marina St

• “The charm and craftsmanship. The intricate wood floors, gorgeous fireplace, the arched living room window, and the original glass in the front-facing windows. The two street trees are exquisite when they bloom in the spring.”
• “Parking for three cars, easy to charge EV and e-bikes, plus ample street parking for visitors. The J-line is under a 5-minute walk, and the 280 and 101 are right there for getaways.”
• “The neighborhood. Wonderful neighbors, a friendly neighborhood network, a community garden, and every Cortland convenience just one block away. Dining, cafes, groceries, fitness, ceramics, the public library, and nightlife. Bernal is temperate and frequently sunny, perfect for a hike up Bernal Hill or a stroll to Holly Park.”
• “The quiet gravity furnace warms the house quickly, the purified drinking water tap in the kitchen, the nearly instant hot water, and the huge garage with windows. Endless flexibility.”
• “We just love this house!”

Take a Tour Through 160 Santa Marina St

Tucked on a side street of Bernal Heights, this 1931 Spanish-style charmer pairs original character with thoughtful updates throughout. A private Ipe hardwood deck, a sun-splashed office/breakfast nook, and a generous three-car garage round out a home that lives larger than its square footage suggests. All of this just one block from Cortland Avenue’s beloved cafes, shops, and the green expanse of Holly Park.
