UPPER HAMPSHIRE STREET
This Mission district building started off as a single story, single family house that needed a lot of TLC. Given the neighborhood zoning, with multi family units being a predominant building type, the opportunity here was to create more housing by turning the one single family house into a two unit condo building. The project essentially built an entirely new building around the existing old structure, starting with the complete replacement of the foundation and the creation of a new ground floor by excavating down. Going up, 2 additional stories were added to the existing structure to ultimately yield a 4 story, 5,000 SF building with a habitable roof deck.
This upper unit is comprised of 2 stories with 4 bedrooms and 3.5 baths. An outdoor rear dining deck presents view towards Sutro and Bernal Hill while the deeded 850 SF roof deck expands on those views and allows for a park-like experience with synthetic turf, composite decking, built in bench seating and landscaping.
