Own a San Francisco Gem
Rare opportunity to own a distinguished piece of San Francisco history in the heart of Pacific Heights, one of the city's most prestigious neighborhoods. This exquisite 5-bedroom, 4.5-bathroom residence seamlessly blends historic grandeur and contemporary luxury, featuring museum-quality design elements throughout. Originally crafted in 1910 by Bakewell and Brown, visionaries behind San Francisco's iconic City Hall, this home was built during Pacific Heights' golden era of post-earthquake reconstruction. Over a century later, it has been masterfully transformed by Mosaic Architects into a contemporary indoor-outdoor sanctuary, honoring its heritage while meeting the demands of modern living.
The main level welcomes you with expansive living and dining areas, anchored by a striking fireplace screen inspired by a Japanese artist. An intimate courtyard garden provides a perfect setting for sheltered outdoor dining, an oasis for entertaining or peaceful contemplation. The chef's kitchen and family room showcase premium appliances and a custom walnut feature wall with concealed storage and media center. These spaces open seamlessly to an east-facing garden with a deck, capturing natural light and creating effortless indoor-outdoor flow.
The primary suite offers a luxurious retreat with a sitting area, spa-like bathroom, and generous closets. Two additional bedrooms and baths, one ensuite, complete the upper level. The home's crowning jewel is a spectacular rooftop media room with a fireplace, crowned by a breathtaking custom Swarovski crystal chandelier. Hundreds of hand-cut crystals cascade through the soaring space like a frozen waterfall of light, casting prismatic reflections throughout the day and transforming into a magical illuminated centerpiece by evening. Two decks with retractable doors flank the media room, opening to reveal breathtaking vistas of the Golden Gate Bridge and Alcatraz Island—perfect for entertaining or savoring the incomparable San Francisco panorama.
The lower level offers exceptional flexibility with a guest suite, gym or additional bedroom, temperature-controlled wine cellar, and laundry facilities. A two-car garage, abundant storage, and a security system complete the amenities. Located steps from Union Street's boutiques, Chestnut Street shops and restaurants, and the Presidio's trails, this property offers refined urban living with access to San Francisco's finest amenities. This is more than a home; it's a legacy property with architectural distinction.
