Property Details

This Pacific Heights Italianate Victorian immediately captures the imagination with its strong architectural facade coated in an au courant black and grey palette. Upon entering the home, one is greeted with a serene and balanced environment combining warm natural light, grand spatial volume, and timeless interior architecture. The classic double parlor rooms offer the opportunity for formal entertaining and elegant daily living. Both the living room and dining room are graced with marble accented, gas fireplaces. The dining room connects to the south terrace and leads directly to the heart of the home, a sun-soaked gourmet kitchen. Dressed in fine Italian marble, the thoughtful design of this living area cannot be understated as a powerful gravitational point of arrival. Designed for a constellation of activities, the kitchen welcomes the aroma of morning coffee, a midday snack, afternoon schoolwork, and the exacting standards for the gourmet in the house. As functional as it is elegant, the kitchen is equipped with top-of-the-line appliances including a 48” M Touch Miele range, Sub Zero refrigeration and Miele dishwasher. Luxuriously finished in high-gloss cabinetry, one feels a sense of inspiration at every turn in this heart of the home.

The upper level of the residence is accessed by an oval skylit staircase accented with a coved sculpture platform. The flexible floor plan offers a choice of two master suites and a third en suite bedroom, all enjoying tremendous natural light and enviable scale. The master baths have Duravit double vanities with storage cabinetry, mirrored walls, and stall showers. The garden suite benefits from additional amenities including a soaking tub and south deck.

The lower level of the home is accessed from the main level entry hall. This level is comprised of a spacious entertainment room and office, wine room, laundry area, and two car tandem garage. The landscaped south garden can be reached from this level and from a stairway from the kitchen terrace.
