About This Home

As of May 2025

Standing proudly across from the historic Maybeck Studio, this elegant Tudor is moments from the Gourmet District and UC Berkeley. Elevated yet walkable, it enjoys stunning views of the Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco, and the Campanile. Blending architectural grandeur with unpretentious livability, the home’s gracious proportions unfold in light-filled spaces. The living room boasts a vaulted, wood-beamed ceiling and a stately stone fireplace, while the formal dining room leads to a charming kitchen with French blue cabinetry, decorative tile, and stainless steel appliances. Adjacent, an intimate breakfast room opens to a romantic flower-lined deck. With a nearly level entry, the main floor hosts a bedroom and a full bath. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms share a hall bath, each infused with original wood floors, unpainted millwork, and period hardware. A full basement with a separate entrance offers ADU potential, two office rooms, and workshop space. The outdoor spaces are equally captivating, with a large deck stepping into a private garden with mature fig and lemon trees. With its architectural charm, preserved details, and an ideal location, this 1926 home offers a rare opportunity in a coveted neighborhood.
