A rare opportunity to own in one of San Francisco's most architecturally significant boutique condo buildings, in the heart of Jackson Square, the City's most dynamic and design-forward neighborhood. Completed in 2018 and designed by the acclaimed Handel Architects, 288 Pacific masterfully blends historic context with contemporary luxury. Its masonry facade and metal-framed windows pay homage to Jackson Square's Gold Rush-era warehouses, while the interiors deliver modern sophistication at every turn. Inside Residence 2A, you're greeted with soaring 11-foot ceilings at the entry with sight lines to expansive south-facing windows that flood the home with natural light. Wide-plank European oak flooring runs throughout, anchoring the home in warmth and refinement. The open-concept kitchen, living and dining space is made for entertaining. And the finishes elevate the space even more--with Wolf range, Sub-Zero fridge and freezer, and Waterworks fixtures throughout. Two en-suite bedrooms, powder room, in-unit laundry, an exclusive-use patio, and garage parking complete the package.  The building's amenities are unmatched in Jackson Square, including a 24/7 lobby attendant, two outdoor terraces on the top two floors with sweeping City and Bay views, and an outdoor kitchen. And all of this surrounded by some of the best restaurants and exclusive boutiques the City has to offer, moments from Downtown San Francisco, North Beach, and the Embarcadero.

Historic Jackson Square, San Francisco

Jackson Square has emerged as one of the most sought-after neighborhoods in San Francisco, transforming from a historic district of 19th-century brick-and-timber buildings into a premier hub for the artificial intelligence and venture capital sectors, incredible food offerings like Kokkari, Cotogna, and the three-Michelin-star Quince, high-end boutiques, and a location hard to beat immediately next to the Financial District and Waterfront.

Lawyer Turned Real Estate Agent

Your lawyer-turned-real estate agent in San Francisco.
Originally from Orange County, Austin has lived and worked in the Bay Area since 2013. Prior to becoming a real estate agent, Austin graduated from Columbia Law School and was a partner at one of the biggest law firms in the world, where he practiced as a trial attorney in the firm’s commercial litigation group. While a practicing attorney, Austin represented numerous Fortune 500 companies and their executives and board members in multi-billion-dollar restructurings and mass tort and class-action cases in state and federal courts across the country.

Austin also dedicated significant time fighting for members of his community. The most personally fulfilling cases he worked on were pro bono cases, representing vulnerable or under-privileged clients in important legal matters. For example, he represented a mother and son escaping persecution in their home country in obtaining lawful residence status in the United States, victims of domestic abuse, and a death-row inmate wrongfully convicted and imprisoned in violation of his constitutional rights.

Seeking new and innovative ways to improve people’s lives and help them fulfill their dreams, Austin left his law firm and pursued a career in real estate. With his extensive litigation and management background, his obsession with residential architecture, and keen sense for creative, persuasive representation, Austin knew a career in real estate would be a perfect blend of his passions and unique skill sets.

Austin has become a master of marketing, and, in particular, understands how to utilize social media to educate and inform prospective market participants about the challenging Bay Area housing market, and to market properties at scale. Austin routinely reaches hundreds of thousands of people every month across YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok. And has been engaged by several brokerages, developers and top agents to market properties in ways they can’t. Austin continues to learn and evolve every day, and brings the best, cutting edge representation to his clients.
