THE LISTING
Real estate on the market you should know about.
In the early 1930s, as much of the Sunset was being built with uniformity in mind, architect and builder Oliver Rousseau introduced a more expressive approach, designing Storybook and Tudor Revival homes that brought character and variation to the neighborhood. One of those homes, a 1933 Tudor at 2659 17th Ave. in Inner Parkside, is now on the market, offering approximately 2,130 square feet of living space, two bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, three-car parking, and classic period details including vaulted ceilings and a wood-burning fireplace.
