From the moment you step into the commanding double-height entry foyer, custom stonework and a curved staircase evoke an ambiance of old world luxury and a true sense of grandeur. The main floor features a great room with 11-foot ceilings, complete with a custom banquet and dining space, as well as an auxiliary living room. The kitchen is adorned with Calcutta Gold countertops and ample cabinetry, including dividers, and top-of-the-line appliances. These include a 48-inch dual oven Wolf range with six burners and a griddle, a pot filler, a four-blower Vent-A-Hood chimney-style vent, and a 48-inch side-by-side Sub-Zero refrigerator. An oversized island with a second sink and a bar-height countertop with a service station and wine cooler make this space perfect for both everyday living and engaged gatherings. Open to the great room is an expansive terrace finished with Turkish Travertine, via custom Lanai doors, creating the ideal flow between the main living space and an enchanting outdoor oasis. The terrace features beautiful landscaping, a fire pit, and decorative lighting.
Across from the great room is the living room, a cozy yet refined space, featuring a gas fireplace, built-in bookshelves, and an adjacent guest bath. This guest bath is a showstopper, with Indian green marble, ultra-premium fixtures, a stainless steel-topped vanity, and a lighted mirror, all set against wall-to-wall full-slab marble. A central staircase, crafted from Italian travertine from Tivoli, connects the main floor to the bedroom level, and echoes the building materials of Rome, while bronze handrails add a touch of old-world charm.
The bedroom level houses the primary suite, and two additional bedrooms with access to a spa-like common full bath with a Napoleon mouchette counter and custom stone highlights. The primary suite serves as a sanctuary of indulgence, with an aura reminiscent of Armani Casa. This grand-scale space features oversized windows and a private terrace with a serene outlook. The opulent master bath includes dual vanities, a sit-in tub, and a fully tiled wet room that includes a rain shower and hand shower. The space is adorned with rich Emperador marble, exuding a luxurious warmth. A super-scaled walk-in wardrobe closet, fully outfitted and accessible from the service pantry/laundry room, adds a practical yet elegant touch.
The multi-functional ground floor offers endless possibilities, from a metropolitan porte-cochère and concours d’Elegance, to a startup office or an entertainer’s dream venue space. Two major zones with dual double garage wide rolling doors can accommodate 6+ cars including storage and a detailing facility – a car aficionado’s dream. Finished with tumbled travertine and cobblestone reminiscent of Italian village roads, this level embodies both practicality and style.
At the top of this architectural gem is a breathtaking roof terrace with 360-degree views, spanning from the downtown skyline and Nob Hill to Twin Peaks and the East Bay Hills. The level includes a finished spa with a hot tub, and two zones with a botanist range of potted plants, succulents, and native plantings for refreshing bloom seasons; all with precise irrigation systems. Green thumb caretakers can enjoy an outsize planter bursting with tomatoes, strawberries, and garden fresh herbs. The space is finished with controlled landscape lighting and surrounded by wraparound glass banister rails, perfect for taking in the beauty of San Francisco both day and night.
Additional features include luscious oak floors with an ebony stain, Nest controlled hydronic floor heating, two hi-capacity gas boilers, and a safe in the primary suite. The main floor living room offers an option for conversion to a 4th + 5th bedroom / den supported by the architect’s plans. This home is a true testament to the harmonious blend of contemporary luxury and timeless Italian craftsmanship, featuring Blomberg Window aluminum window and door systems, robust steel grade and structural beams, and a facade finished in pigmented stucco and accented with Rosal Portuguese limestone to deliver a commanding while inviting curb appeal.
