1226 48th Avenue, San Francisco 94122

San Francisco
THE HOME

1226 48th Avenue is a residential income property in San Francisco's Outer Sunset, occupying a 2,563-square-foot footprint. The address sits within a grid of mid-century homes that extends westward toward Ocean Beach, where fog and proximity to Golden Gate Park define the rhythm of the neighborhood. The property is currently listed and reflects the enduring appeal of duplex living in this part of the city—a format that has long appealed to both owner-occupants and investors. The street is quiet, tree-lined, and walkable, with cafés and markets within a few blocks.

THE NEIGHBORHOOD

The Outer Sunset unfolds in orderly blocks between Golden Gate Park and the Pacific, a landscape of stucco houses, corner markets, and salt air. With a Walk Score of 77, the area supports daily errands on foot: Java Beach Cafe and Devil's Teeth Baking Company anchor morning routines, while Safeway and Western Sunset Market handle provisioning. Beach Chalet Brewery, Outerlands, and Thanh Long offer neighborhood dining. Downtown San Francisco is a 24-minute drive or 45 minutes by transit; San Francisco International Airport is 24 minutes by car. Sutro Heights and the Polo Field lie within Golden Gate Park's western edge.
