About This Home
Designed in 1928, this home showcases timeless, dramatic architecture elevated above the street, offering a nearly level yard alongside sweeping views of San Francisco and the Golden Gate. Inside, the sunken living room features soaring vaulted ceilings, elegant arched windows, a wood-burning fireplace, and hand-hewn exposed beams. Wonderful woodwork spans throughout, highlighted by newly refinished wood floors and original doors complete with hand-forged iron hinges and brackets—a testament to classic craftsmanship and attention to detail rarely found today. The main level includes two spacious bedrooms, as well as a tastefully updated kitchen that modernizes for today's needs while retaining its original character. The kitchen opens to an adjoining dining area that overlooks the front garden. One of the bedrooms on this level opens directly onto the back deck, taking full advantage of the bay views. Surrounding the residence, lush, beautiful landscaping features mature trees and vibrant plant life. On the lower level, you will find a third bedroom wrapped in warm knotty pine, complete with a cozy bed nook. A second full bathroom on this level adds exceptional versatility, making the space ideal for a home office or guest suite. Completing the property is a convenient one-car garage situated at street level. Home Energy Score 3
