Russian Hill picturesque neighborhood…

I enjoy walking through Russian Hill on my way to North Beach and admire the architecture of the fine homes you see along the way with restaurants, shops and picturesque streets of views to the Bay.

“ The neighborhood got its name when gold rushers found seven Cyrillic-inscribed gravestones at the top of the hill. Consensus on the identity of the Russian men buried there — they were reputed to be anything from sailors to fur trappers — was never reached, the gravestones disappeared in the late 1800s and the Russian influence has long since dissipated”. *

I enjoy selling homes in Russian Hill with loads of charm and history in this picturesque district. It’s one of the most desireable view neighborhoods in San Francisco!

San Francisco Marina District

What’s It Like in the Marina?
San Francisco’s Marina District offers flat land for jogging and water for surfing and Pacific Heights hills not a far hike. It’s a location where the singles scene is hopping on Friday and Saturday nights, with lots of good energy. Union is arguably the best street in the city to window-shop the hours away on a sunny Saturday afternoon and, a few blocks down, Chestnut has an incredible variety of high-quality restaurants catering to every palate.

A short walk to the Presidio where Lucas Films is located with many other facilities to enjoy and the YMCA. The North Side of San Francisco is a relocation destination for young adults where a social atmosphere on Chestnut street can be found.

Specializing in the Marina…housing is not always found through Craigslist…its all about networking. Contact: www.SilvanaMessing.com
