PACIFIC HEIGHTS MAISONETTE

SOLD FOR $9,000,000


 
 

An Introduction

Along the rolling slopes of Lafayette Park, architect Conrad Muessdorffer was commissioned to design three grand cooperative apartment buildings bordering the northern and eastern aspects of the park’s city block. In addition to 2000 Washington Street, the St. Regis Apartments at 1945 Gough Street and the elegant 2006 Washington Street comprised a triumvirate of stately living for the beau monde of the Roaring 1920’s. Today, the maisonette apartment at 2000 Washington Street commands a corner position directly across from the park’s north eastern entrance and serves as the only private residence in this exclusive Pacific Heights doorman building.



Property Details

The maisonette apartment at 2000 Washington Street presents a rare opportunity to acquire a home-like residence in one of San Francisco’s most prestigious doorman buildings. As one of only three such apartments in the Pacific Heights neighborhood, this property offers an elegant combination of full-service city living, grand entertaining spaces, and coveted views of the San Francisco bay and Golden Gate Bridge. Under the creative direction of architect, Michael Rabichev, and iron forger, Eric Clausen, this renovated apartment achieves an alchemy of sculptural design and contemporary interiors.

The interiors take advantage of a desirable open-plan arrangement for entertaining and the enjoyment of a substantial art collection.  Private living quarters are comprised of three spacious en-suite bedrooms enjoying outlooks to Lafayette Park and bay views from the master suite. A true gourmet's kitchen, accented with Bird’s Eye maple cabinetry, connects to a sitting area with gas burning fireplace, dining area, and a walk-out deck. This portion of the residence enjoys stunning views of the bay and beyond. Additional amenities include three car parking with direct elevator access, a common view roof deck, laundry room, security, and daily doorman services. 

The architectural concept was to transform a traditional, upscale San Francisco apartment into an expansive, free flowing art gallery that functioned as a family home. Every space received its own fascinating figure and abstract ceiling sculpture. The overall multi-purpose space was to be embraced by unique ironwork running through the interiors and depicting gestures of free expression.

LAFAYETTE PARK ATTRACTIONS & FEATURES

Lafayette Park attracts families and kids who come to romp about the children’s playground; canine lovers who enjoy quality time with their pooch; picnickers; walkers who visit the numerous open and tree-clustered green spaces; and those seeking an outdoor getaway that encourages reflection just as much as recreation. Whether you come to the park for relaxation or active fun, Lafayette Park doesn’t disappoint, as it is home to the following attractions and sights:

Lafayette Park Playground: Situated on Clay at Laguna, Lafayette Park is home to a family-friendly, enclosed playground that offers climbing structures, metal slides, an orange spinning ride with rope play, swings, rubberized ground, and imaginative play spaces. The water sensory stream adds a fascinating visual aspect to the park. Long metal poles intrigue older kids who enjoy sliding down them. Restrooms are conveniently located close to the playground (described by some as ‘exceptionally clean’). Limited parking is found on the perimeter of the park.

Lafayette Park Tennis Courts: Located at the southeast corner of the park at Washington & Laguna St, Lafayette Park is home to two outdoor, public tennis courts, which operate on a first-come, first-serve basis. There are no lights at this court, but if you’re interested in enjoying illuminating play amongst active tennis players in the area, there are currently more than 100 willing participants registered at Lafayette Square Park through TennisRound.com.

The Gathering Meadow: Behind the tennis courts, the Gathering Meadow is a noticeable feature on the east side of Lafayette Park (Gough St. & Washington St.). A combination of lawn space and three-tier seating space that stretches 70 feet across each tier provides a lovely space for special events and activities.

Lafayette Dog Park: Outfitted with new ‘doggie turf’ in 2016, Lafayette Park is becoming an increasingly popular hot spot for canine lovers and owners, which allows their companions to stretch their legs at the recently rejuvenated off-leash dog run.
