Rarely does a property come to market that so seamlessly blends architectural integrity, thoughtful design, and cutting-edge technology into one cohesive and extraordinary living experience. Situated on the southwest corner of San Francisco’s beloved Noe Valley, this four-bedroom, three-bath residence offers 2,223 square feet of meticulously reimagined living space on a 4,554-square-foot lot — a home that was celebrated in the pages of Dwell Magazine and has only grown more compelling with time.

Architecture & Exterior
The home’s exterior makes an immediate and lasting impression. Clad in midnight-black cedar boards finished with shou sugi ban — the ancient Japanese technique of charring wood — and executed by the acclaimed Texas studio Delta Millworks, the facade is both visually striking and exceptionally durable. Naturally resistant to fire, weathering, and insects, the charred cedar finish is a sophisticated choice that speaks to the owners’ commitment to quality, longevity, and design excellence. Rising confidently above Noe Valley’s Victorian streetscape, this home stands in a category entirely its own.
Open-Plan Living
The main floor has been thoughtfully reconfigured into one long, fluid living space where the front balcony, living room, dining room, and kitchen flow together without interruption. Guided by renowned Bay Area architect Christi Azevedo, walls were carefully removed to create an open, unobstructed environment ideal for both everyday living and gracious entertaining. A glass panel along the stair banister draws natural light from a second-floor skylight down through the entire main level, filling the home with warmth and brightness throughout the day. Wide-plank flooring and clean white walls complete a main floor that feels both generous and refined.
Chef’s Kitchen
The kitchen is nothing short of extraordinary. A custom 13-foot-long island — one of the most impressive in the city — pairs rare Calacatta Miele marble with precision stainless steel. This combination was the result of an exhaustive search, as Calacatta Miele marble is available only in 10-foot slabs, making this seamless, oversized installation a true custom achievement. Gray Tabu wood cabinetry by DeFauw Design. Functional, stunning, and built without compromise.
Four Bedrooms & Three Full Baths
The home’s four bedrooms are thoughtfully distributed across 2,223 square feet, offering flexibility for families, guests, and dedicated work-from-home needs. The primary suite is a sanctuary in every sense — private, serene, and perfectly positioned to capture the home’s sweeping views. The spa-caliber primary bathroom centers on an aromatic hinoki wood soaking tub, a Japanese-inspired element that transforms the daily routine into a restorative experience. Heath Ceramics tile throughout all three bathrooms adds an artisan quality that elevates every surface. Three full baths ensure comfort and privacy for every member of the household.

Technology & Smart Home Systems
This home was designed from the ground up with technology integrated thoughtfully and purposefully. A dedicated Tech Hub serves as the central command for a sophisticated home automation system that manages everything seamlessly. Solar panels paired with smart thermostats allow the home to produce more energy than it consumes, with surplus power directed toward charging an electric vehicle. A whole-home Sonos audio system extends from the interior to the outdoor patio. A rooftop camera streams a live panoramic feed of the East Bay skyline to an interior television — a stunning digital window that on clear days reaches all the way to Mount Diablo in Contra Costa County. Smart garage access via virtual key, a dedicated climate-controlled wine room, and high-speed internet from Monkeybrains complete a home that is as intelligent as it is beautiful.
Outdoor Living
The 4,554-square-foot lot is a genuine rarity in San Francisco, and the outdoor spaces have been designed with the same care and intentionality found throughout the interior. The patio was raised to align with the kitchen level, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow that extends the living space effortlessly into the landscape. Working with landscape architect Patrick Lannan, the backyard was transformed from an overgrown space into a lush, curated garden anchored by a magnificent Monterey cypress. A retractable sunshade, outdoor audio, and generous garden space create an outdoor environment that is as livable as any room in the home.
Views & Location
Positioned high above the neighborhood’s rooftops, the home commands sweeping, unobstructed views of the East Bay hills and San Francisco cityscape — enjoyed from the living room, the balcony, and the garden. Noe Valley remains one of the city’s most sought-after neighborhoods, offering an exceptional quality of life with its acclaimed dining, boutique retail, weekly farmers market, top-rated schools, and convenient access to public transit and Silicon Valley commute corridors.
A Singular Opportunity
Architect-designed, magazine-featured, and built with an unwavering commitment to quality at every level — from the shou sugi ban facade to the hinoki soaking tub, from the custom marble island to the rooftop digital window. This is a home that rewards the discerning buyer who understands the difference between a house and a true residence. An exceptional offering in today’s San Francisco market.

With Karl the Fog blanketing most of San Francisco, Noe Valley is a sunny exception. This is mostly thanks to the neighborhood’s location below Twin Peaks and Glen Ridge; both of these hills help keep Karl at “bay,” which allows Noe Valley residents to enjoy more sunny days than normal. Real estate in Noe Valley ranges from spacious condos to quaint row houses with fully upgraded interiors. Compared to other San Francisco neighborhoods, prospective residents are often amazed at the large floor plans available here.
