Description
Located just beyond the gates of Presidio Terrace, this elegant manor is a refined reminder of San Francisco’s glorious architectural heritage. Designed by Sidney and Noble Newsom, architects for some of the Bay Area’s most prominent families, the four-level home provides generous spaces for living and entertaining, all with enchanting period details, including a regal entry with classical columns, ornate millwork, double doors, and an elaborate iron gate opens to a foyer anchored by a gracefully curving stairway. Timelessly accented arched doors lead to the formal dining room and a generous living room with a carved stone fireplace and numerous tall windows. Bright and inviting, the kitchen features stainless-steel appliances and a lovely light-filled breakfast area with doors to the gardens. Nearby, a cozy library sits at the base of an auxiliary stairway and two powder rooms are thoughtfully tucked away. Secluded on the second level, the sophisticated primary suite enjoys multiple windows affording treetop views and a bath with a soaking tub, a shower, and a dressing room. The office features built-in shelving, an embellished fireplace, leaded windows, and a soothing organic palette. The three guest bedrooms on this floor are accompanied by en-suite baths with vintage-inspired elements and walk-in closets. A generous laundry room with two sets of washer/dryers completes the bedroom level. The lower level features a family room where chic contemporary minimalism holds sway. On the upper level are an additional bedroom, bath, and spacious attic storage. Closet space is plentiful throughout. Outdoors, stone steps lead through manicured gardens, which include a secluded patio and mature hedges and trees that create privacy. A gated driveway accesses the freestanding two-car garage. Located near the Presidio, Sacramento St, and Laurel Village.
