Perched along San Francisco's Portola corridor, 38 Portola Drive pairs incredible city views with massive potential. From sunrise colors over the city to twinkling evening lights, the views set the tone for a home that is ready to be reimagined. The main level features a large living room that flows to the dining area, both framed by east facing windows and sweeping outlooks. A bright kitchen catches the morning light, a convenient half bath serves the level, and a bonus room off the living space offers flexibility for office, playroom, or guest room. Upstairs you will find 3 bedrooms and 1 bath, each bedroom spacious with generous closet space & potential for a decked out primary suite. A 2 car garage with room for storage and a backyard ready for creative landscaping help to complete the home. Here, location works as hard as the views. Moments to Twin Peaks trails and Glen Canyon open space, with quick connections to West Portal, Noe Valley, and the Castro for everyday essentials and weekend favorites. Transit, tech shuttle stops, and freeway access keep the whole city and Peninsula within easy reach. Offered in present condition, 38 Portola is a canvas for contractors, designers, and end users alike, an opportunity to craft a tailored home on a storied San Francisco hill
