Property Description

Built in 1924, this special home is located on a double-wide corner lot at the crest of a hill. This location provides several great views of the entire Golden Gate Bridge, the greenery of the Presidio, and views past the Financial District all the way out to Mt. Diablo . Entry is thru a small gate, with a wonderful yard and garden to your right. Up a few steps you arrive at a lovely half-enclosed front door porch area. Incorporated into the front door is a beautiful custom designed and built colorful stain glass window. This gives you a hint of how exquisite the interior details will be in this home. The front door opens to a magnificent large foyer, with a gracious wood and wrought iron staircase in view. On this level are spacious entertaining areas with hardwood floors- a bright living room with floor-to-ceiling arched windows facing west and north plus a working fireplace; and a dining room with exquisite custom painted wall murals, 5 additional custom designed stain glass windows and other glorious period details. There is a large newly renovated kitchen with dramatic contrasting white cabinetry and gray granite countertops and state-of-the-art appliances including a 6-gas burner Thermadore® stove, Subzero® refrigerator and Viking® wine chiller near the wet bar. Although there is an eating area counter top that can seat 8, there is also a lovely breakfast room with views to the Presidio that can be used for dining or an office that acts as the hub of the house.
