DESCRIPTION
Enjoying a superb Pacific Heights address, this classic Victorian is bestowed with the refined grace and character that comes through the passage of time. Built in the late 1800s, the home has been extensively renovated with an ambiance that is elegant, stylish, and timeless. Elevated above the street, a unique and charming front yard – one of two delightful places for outdoor living – is a welcome introduction. Inside, tall ceilings with classic crown moldings, herringbone-patterned hardwood floors, and a neutral color palette combine for a setting that is ready for any personal style of furnishings and art. Significant custom built-ins are as beautiful as they are functional, and designer lighting provides the perfect hue for evening enjoyment. Beyond the formality of the living room and dining room, a gourmet kitchen at the rear of the home presents with an array of professional-quality appliances and ample room for friends and family to join in with the chef.
Al fresco dining and outdoor entertaining unfolds on a beautiful garden terrace bordered by flowering gardens and sheltered by the detached garage, which offers convenient access from a private alley. Three bedrooms are traditionally arranged on the upper level highlighted by a spacious master suite with private deck for morning coffee, fully customized walk-in closet, and marble bathroom. Rounding out the appeal of this special home is its location just one block from Fillmore Street for shopping and dining, two blocks to Alta Plaza Park or Lafayette Park with excellent recreational facilities, and proximity to some of San Francisco’s finest schools. Designer interiors, enchanting outdoor spaces, and ideal location – this is distinguished City living.
