In a land called Bernal Heights, not so very long ago, a sad fixer-upper sold for a measly $835,000. In one magical year, thanks to a property expansion, some major renovations, and a sprinkling of fairy dust, the plain jane now joins SF's million-dollar ranks, hitting the market for nearly double her 2014 selling price. Talk about a Cinderella story. 

What was once ho-hum is now all high polish in this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home on Folsom Street. On the main floor, vaulted ceilings and skylights cap modern design. Travel up the steel-and-wooden staircase and and kick off your glass slippers in the master suite, equipped with its own deck. 

The petite palace also houses a home office and garden patio—even the most dedicated workaholic can't resist sipping a glass or two outside until the stroke of midnight.
