These San Francisco houses bought for lower than $1M in October

There have been whispers of falling home and rent prices in the San Francisco Bay Area, but that hasn’t yet translated into practical, noticeable drops for residents looking for something even remotely affordable. In fact, even homes under $1 million—still a vast, largely unattainable sum of money for many—are nearly impossible to come by in San Francisco. To further illustrate this point and show what you can get for less than seven figures, we’ve compiled a list of six figure homes that sold in the month of October, according to Zillow.
Some of the houses offer more than others as you will see. None is larger than about 1,300 square feet. And some include interesting amenities, like a surprisingly expansive garden area. See the full list below.
350 Howth St
Neighborhood: sea view
Sold for: $975,000
This two bedroom, one bath home recently came on the market for the first time in 50 years, according to agents. It originally had a price tag of $1.2 million in July but sold well below that. Described as the “perfect starter house,” it has plenty of carpeted space, a decent-sized kitchen, and an odd laundry/dryer room with a treadmill and what appears to be a corner shower. Also a nice little backyard!

146 Wienstr.
Neighborhood: wood wool
Sold for: $900,000
With three beds and two baths, believe it or not, this 1,329-square-foot home is larger than most of its competitors in the sub-$1 million price range. It’s a two-story building that needs some TLC to clean up the interior, and many of the rooms don’t get enough natural light. However, it includes a covered terrace and a garage.

394 Capistrano Avenue.
Neighborhood: Mission Terrace
Sold for: $935,000
A two bedroom, one bathroom property flanked by two palm trees out front. The listing says you have to go through the garage to get to the bathroom, which doesn’t seem ideal. This sold below the original asking price of $1.1 million.

879 Ralphstr.
Neighborhood: Crocker Amazon
Sold for: $918,000
An elegant, modernized two bedroom, one bathroom home with lovely views of the backyard, garden, patio and storage area. The kitchen has lots and lots of natural light, but it’s tiny. The bathroom also seems quite small.

Sold for: $883,000
