Asked $2,995,000. Received $4,500,000. A 1907 Inner Richmond Edwardian — fully detached on a wide lot, parquet floors, two fireplaces, grand formal rooms, updated kitchen with rear deck and garden — closed in six days at fifty percent over the asking price. San Francisco at its most competitive.

It is not unusual for San Francisco homes to sell over asking. What happened at 550 4th Avenue in the Inner Richmond in July 2026 is, by any measure, unusual: a six-day close at $4,500,000 on a $2,995,000 asking price, representing a $1,505,000 premium — fifty percent above list. It joins a very short list of over-asking results that define what San Francisco's residential market can produce when the right property meets the right moment.

The property is a 1907 fully detached single-family home of 2,882 square feet on a wide lot in the Inner Richmond — a neighborhood where fully detached homes of this scale simply do not appear often. The Edwardian craftsmanship is the building's defining quality: a gracious entry foyer that sets the architectural register; a formal living room with fireplace and parquet floors; a spacious formal dining room with built-in cabinetry and its own fireplace — the scale of entertaining rooms that the early twentieth century built and that no contemporary construction can replicate.

The scale and flow of these rooms create the ideal setting for both everyday living and the kind of hosting that a San Francisco home of this size makes possible. The dining room connects seamlessly to a rear deck and landscaped garden — a genuine outdoor space that, in the Inner Richmond, is an extraordinary asset. The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with high-end appliances and the practical upgrades that make a historic home function with contemporary ease. Three well-proportioned bedrooms and updated bathrooms occupy the upper levels.

The Inner Richmond context: The Inner Richmond is one of San Francisco's most complete urban neighborhoods — Golden Gate Park and the Presidio within walking distance in two directions, Clement Street's food culture at the door, and a walkability score that confirms everything the neighborhood's residents already know. Fully detached Edwardians at this scale appear in this neighborhood perhaps twice per year. This is what happens when one does.

Closed at $4,500,000 — $1,561 per square foot — in six days. The result that fifty years of SF real estate observation would classify as exceptional.

Market Snapshot · 2026

Fully Detached Inner Richmond

Structural Scarcity

A fully detached single-family home of 2,882 sq ft in the Inner Richmond is among the rarest residential configurations in San Francisco — the combination of scale, detachment, and neighborhood position appears perhaps twice per year.

50% Over Asking

Exceptional Result

A $1,505,000 over-asking close — 50% above the $2,995,000 list price — in six days is one of the most significant over-asking results in the Inner Richmond's recorded history, reflecting both the property's scarcity value and the extraordinary depth of buyer competition it generated.

1907 Edwardian

Irreplaceable Period Character

Parquet floors, two fireplaces, grand formal dining room with built-in cabinetry, and a gracious entry foyer in a 1907 Edwardian represent architectural quality that the market in 2026 treats as permanently premium.

SF Inner Richmond Summer 2026

Highly Competitive

San Francisco's family home market entered summer 2026 in competitive form — a continuation of the recovery trajectory that began in 2024 — with the Inner Richmond's school adjacency and park access driving sustained family demand.

A 1907 fully detached Inner Richmond Edwardian — 4 bedrooms, parquet floors, two fireplaces, grand formal rooms, updated kitchen, rear deck and garden — asked $2,995,000, received $4,500,000, closed in six days. Fifty percent over asking. The San Francisco market producing the result it is capable of when scarcity meets conviction.
