Charming Upper East Duplex

Take a look inside this period charmer near the Mission.

Charming Upper East Duplex

When I visited this lovely home near the Old Mission last week, I followed the signs and the parade of people. The rose garden was bustling with picnickers, kids chasing dogs, and dogs chasing frisbees. The whole scene felt like one big end-of-summer party.

Several groups of people were walking in the same direction that I was, and sure enough, they were headed to my very destination: a grand vintage home located at 20 and 22 East Los Olivos Street.

As I approached, I saw a sign indicating that my friend Michelle was the Realtor hosting the open house. Then, as I got closer, I saw another real estate sign with my friend Jessie’s name on it. Had Michelle borrowed Jessie’s sign? Or vice versa? I love both Jessie and Michelle, so I was looking forward to seeing either of them.
