Brick walls. Timber beams. Soaring ceilings. At 310 Townsend, a 1907 warehouse became one of SoMa's most sought-after loft addresses — and Unit 211 is its most character-rich expression.

Ten years before the Great Earthquake reshaped San Francisco, the building at 310 Townsend Street was already a working warehouse at the edge of the city's industrial south waterfront. Today, it is one of forty-five brick-and-timber converted lofts in one of SoMa's most authentic conversions — a building that has managed to retain the raw materiality of its origins while delivering a genuinely sophisticated place to live.

Unit 211 is the ground-floor version of that story told at its most dramatic. Exposed masonry runs the full length of the residence. Historic brick walls meet soaring pillars that pay homage to the building's industrial past, while the open floor plan allows the space to breathe in a way that feels genuinely generous for a one-bedroom in San Francisco. The fully remodeled kitchen features Bosch appliances. The bath, redesigned by KAG Design, includes a walk-in shower. Bamboo flooring runs throughout, and the flexible space adjacent to the main living area easily accommodates a home office or studio setup.

The location is the other half of the argument. Steps from Caltrain's 4th and King station, Oracle Park, Chase Center, and the restaurants of SoMa and South Beach — and one block from Mission Bay — 310 Townsend sits at the convergence of San Francisco's most transit-rich and culturally active districts. A walk score that essentially maxes out confirms what residents already know: a car is optional here.

Fourteen days on market at $875,000 — a clean, decisive close in the heart of SoMa's industrial-chic loft market.

Market Snapshot · 2024
SF Condo Market
Soft
SF's condo segment faced meaningful supply pressure in spring 2024, with buyers taking a selective approach — favoring character-rich properties with genuine differentiation over generic newer construction.
SoMa Loft Premium
Persistent
Authentic brick-and-timber warehouse conversions like 310 Townsend hold a scarcity premium — there are very few of them, and they don't replicate. That insulates them from broader condo market softness.
Mortgage Rate
~6.9%
Rates remained elevated through April 2024, keeping monthly costs high for financed buyers — yet at $875K, this sits at a price point where the buyer pool is meaningful.
14 Days on Market
Swift
A 14-day close for a character-rich SoMa loft in April 2024 reflects the continued appetite for distinctive urban product priced appropriately for the rate environment.
At $920/sq ft for a genuine brick-and-timber SoMa loft with Bosch kitchen and KAG-designed bath, this sale captures the durable premium that historic warehouse conversions command in San Francisco. The 14-day close, in a condo market that was broadly soft, is a direct result of scarcity — authentic industrial lofts like this simply don't come up often.
