829 Folsom is a nine-story modern residential building offering a total of 69 homes in the heart of the Arts District of downtown San Francisco. Its location is ideal for anyone who wants to be close to all the action that San Francisco has to offer and is literally steps away from destinations like the SFMOMA and the Yerba Buena Convention Center. 829 Folsom is perfectly centered between the art, theatre, performing arts, business and retail centers that make it perfect for people living active lifestyles.

Currently at 80% capacity, 829 Folsom offers studios, 1-bedroom, 2-bedroom, and 3-bedroom homes. There is a 3-level garage with bike storage and makes coming and going a breeze. It offers home owners the security of a 24 hour lobby attendant and a wide variety of security devices like electronic access control system, digital video recording surveillance devices, battery back-up of critical building security systems and elevators with individual floor access control systems. Another highlight of this building is the rooftop terrace. In my humble opinion, it is one of the finest in San Francisco. With contemporary furnishings and a natural gas BBQ, it is a great place to entertain friends and family. Add in the stunning views and you may not want to leave.

829 Folsom goes the extra mile by offering its residents a design that maximizes energy efficiency and takes advantage of cutting-edge environmental technologies. All of the appliances are Energy Star rated, the paint and flooring are low emitting and non-toxic, and dual-flush toilets reduce water consumption. Because of its proximity to retail, work, and entertainment, 829 Folsom provides more walking and bicycling options too.

San Francisco’s Mission Bay area is heating up again with Bosa’s new-development Madrone, now entering into its first pre-selling stage. Given the trend in demand from Bosa’s last development, Radiance, which was highly sought after for both its innumerable amenities and convenient location, Madrone will fill up fast.

Floors 1-9 will feature One Bedroom homes with some of the best value in the city at $495,000 to $671,000. Square footage looks to be around what was offered in Radiance at 731 to 1,051 square feet.
Two bedroom units (featuring 2 full baths) will range from 1,042 to 1,426 square feet. A few homes will also feature patios, balconies, or roof decks. Prices for two bedroom units will likely be between $705,000 to $1,009,000.
