This unique, townhouse style home occupies the top two floors of a 4 unit building constructed in 1894 by Robert Dickie Cranston, a prominent builder in the Haight Ashbury district at the time. The architecturally significant façade has been beautifully restored with meticulous attention to detail and was published in the second edition of the Painted Ladies books, ‘Painted Ladies Revisited’.  Enhanced by east and west light-filled exposures, stunning Victorian era volumes, meticulously restored period details and pristine softwood floors, he home encompasses 1799 sq. ft. (per tax records) on two floors of living space including 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths,.

The main living level features a gracious light-filled parlor well-suited for entertaining. The dramatic Victorian volumes are enhanced by elegant west-facing bay windows and a handsome refurbished gas-burning fireplace. At the opposite end of this floor, the kitchen is tastefully remodeled to complement the period architecture with quality cabinets, marble counter-tops and professional series stainless steel appliances. Flanking the kitchen is a light-filled breakfast space, ample for daily dining, and a grand-scaled dining room featuring its own fireplace, perfect for larger gatherings. A charming half bath and laundry closet completes the main living level.

A handsome stairway, graced by a beautifully restored Victorian era balustrade and colorful period skylight, provides a gracious connection to the upper bedroom level which accommodates three bedrooms and two beautifully remodeled full baths. The primary bedroom enjoys tree-top neighborhood vistas, excellent closet space and a beautifully appointed en-suite turret bath with soaking tub. While the two additional bedrooms are both generously proportioned, the east-facing bedroom works well as a den or office with direct access to a private deck space. Leased parking for this home is available across the street.

Located on the corner of Cole and Page Street, the property is a walker’s paradise with easy access to a diversity of shops and restaurants in the Haight, Cole Valley and the exciting NOPA district. Easy access to the Panhandle, one block away, also makes this a wonderful place to enjoy world class museums and all of the other amenities of Golden Gate Park.

Neighborhood

At the center of Haight Ashbury is one of the most famous intersections in America. The epicenter of the counter culture movement, home to the Grateful Dead, the Haight Ashbury Free clinic, and the hippies of the 60s, today Haight Ashbury still retains a heady whiff of those free-spirited days, grounded by a new civic awareness and neighborhood pride.

Tourists still come from around the world to check out the action on Haight Street, and they find plenty of it. Trendy boutiques like Upper Playground, Buffalo Exchange and American Apparel sell the coolest looks. Independent record store Amoeba offers free in-store performances and proves there's still life in the music industry. When the hubbub of Haight Street proves too much, Golden Gate Park, with its new world-class museums, the DeYoung and the California Academy of Sciences, offer a calm oasis.

Renovation of the neighborhood Victorians continues apace. Converted to apartments in the 60s these homes are being rediscovered by families who take them on as hobby, pastime, passion, and investment. For families with young kids, the Haight Ashbury Coop Nursery School, now in its third decade, provides an inexpensive alternative to day care from its home in the Alma Street playground.
