Set within an exclusive 8-residence boutique building, the home offers rare privacy, a quiet elevator, and secured parking. Nestled in the heart of Bankers Hill, you’re just steps from Balboa Park, Downtown, and the iconic 7 Bridges walk. Inside, a professional remodel blends modern design with thoughtful detail—smooth textured walls, integrated sound, automated shades, updated lighting, and premium flooring. Abundant closets and built-in storage maximize convenience throughout. The open-concept living and dining spaces flow seamlessly with a wraparound backdrop of views. The remodeled kitchen balances function and style, while the flexible third bedroom/office also captures western exposure. Retreat to a spacious primary suite with a spa-inspired bath featuring a soaking tub, walk-in shower, and expansive closet. A light-filled secondary suite offers its own marble bath and large walk-in. The full-size laundry room, reimagined with custom cabinetry and oversized sink, adds everyday ease.
