Exceptional San Francisco Home

1925 Gough Street #42, San Francisco

|

$5,300,000

Set within Lafayette Park at 1925 Gough Street, this iconic co-op is the only residential building located in a San Francisco city park. Designed by renowned architect Conrad Meussdorffer in a Beaux-Arts, New York–inspired style, the building is a rare architectural treasure. Perched on a high floor, Residence 42 enjoys coveted park views, abundant natural light, and the timeless elegance of a home cherished by the same family for the past 30 years.
 
The entrance foyer is grand in both volume and scale, gracious enough to serve as a second living area. The formal dining room has comfortably hosted dinners for 16, while the stately living room, complete with a gas fireplace, is distinguished by its remarkable proportions and sweeping eastern views over the park. Just beyond, a separate library lined with floor-to-ceiling bookshelves offers a warm and sophisticated retreat.
 
The residence beautifully separates its public entertaining rooms from its private quarters. A gracious gallery leads to four bedrooms and three bathrooms including the primary suite, which opens onto a spacious glass-enclosed solarium.Bathed in light and surrounded by verdant park outlooks, this enchanting “garden room” has long been celebrated by guests as “the best room in all of San Francisco.” Though bright and airy, it remains wonderfully private, sheltered by mature trees and its elevated setting, creating a serene retreat with occasional visits from the city’s beloved wild parrots. An additional fifth bedroom or private office and a powder room complete this magnificent apartment.
 
Lafayette Park, quite literally at your doorstep, offers garden paths, a dog run, tennis courts, a children’s playground, and inviting places to sit, read, or gather with friends.
 
Additional amenities include a full laundry room, doorman, on-site manager, separate service elevator, storage, garden, and parking.

Neighborhood

Living in Pacific Heights provides an opportunity to rub elbows with some of Silicon Valley’s most prominent players. PayPal founder Peter Theil, Oracle CEO Larry Ellison, and Apple designer Jonathan Ive have all made their homes in what is considered one of the most expensive neighborhoods in the United States. Palatial highrise condos and luxurious row houses are the most common types of real estate you will find in Pacific Heights.

Although the Presidio is just a short trip away from Pacific Heights, the neighborhood features two small parks of its own: Lafayette Park and Alta Plaza Park. Lafayette Park offers beautiful grassy hills, a playground, and an off-leash dog park, while Alta Plaza is perched even higher with most of the same amenities. 

When Pacific Heights residents are looking for a place to eat, they usually make their way to Fillmore Street. This area is also a great place to enjoy a day of shopping and entertainment. 

Locals and tourists are often amazed at the variety of landmarks and attractions you can find in Pacific Heights. Enjoy a guided tour through the Haas-Lilienthal House, San Francisco’s only Victorian House museum open to the public for house tours, or check out the McElroy Octagon House, which serves as both an architectural treasure and a Colonial and Federal Periods Decorative Arts Museum.

Lastly, the southeast corner of the Presidio is less than two miles away, so there is always something fun to explore near the Pacific Heights neighborhood!
