San Francisco's intimate Cole Valley neighborhood seems to have a little of everything that the City has to offer. There's the wonderful variety of architecture from stately Victorians homes to mid century Art Deco buildings. Then there's the small commercial strip on Cole Street itself with its uber hip restaurants, wine bars and retail stores. Cole Valley, which generally includes parts of the Haight, Parnassus Heights and Ashbury Heights, is a short distance from Golden Gate Park and provides quick access to downtown via the MUNI light rail line that bisects the neighborhood, while being conveniently close to 19th Avenue, the Cityÿs on-street connection to the North and South Bays.
