1226 48th Avenue, San Francisco 94122
1226 48th Avenue occupies a quiet residential block in San Francisco's Outer Sunset, where the city grid meets the western edge of Golden Gate Park. The address sits within a neighborhood defined by orderly avenues, coastal fog, and proximity to both parkland and ocean. The area developed through the twentieth century as a middle‑density residential district, and homes here remain within walking distance of the park's western meadows and the Great Highway coastline. The location offers a calm counterpoint to the density of the city's eastern corridors, with direct access to open space and a local pattern of cafés, grocers, and elementary schools serving the surrounding blocks.
The Outer Sunset functions as one of San Francisco's westernmost residential districts, bordered by Golden Gate Park to the north and the Pacific Ocean a short walk west. The Walk Score of 77 reflects strong pedestrian access to daily amenities: Safeway and Western Sunset Market anchor grocery needs, while Java Beach Cafe, Devil's Teeth Baking Company, and Outerlands provide neighborhood dining and gathering points. Francis Scott Key Elementary School sits half a mile away and carries a GreatSchools rating of 9 out of 10. Downtown San Francisco is a 25‑minute drive or 45 minutes by transit; San Francisco International Airport is 24 minutes by car.
- The home lies within the attendance area of Key Elementary School (GreatSchools rating: 9) and within 1.5 miles of both A.P. Giannini Middle School (rating: 8) and George Washington High School (rating: 8).
- Golden Gate Park's western features — the Polo Field, Bison Paddock, and Queen Wilhelmina Garden — are all within a ten‑minute walk, offering immediate access to meadows, trails, and weekend programming.
- The Outer Sunset's coastal microclimate brings frequent marine layer cover, particularly in summer months, creating cooler and often foggier conditions than neighborhoods east of Twin Peaks.

Transit and Bike scores read the same way for public transportation and cycling.
