Description:
Main Level: The main floor boasts an open concept living and dining area that effortlessly transitions into the gourmet kitchen and breakfast area, extending from the front to the rear of the home and opening directly to the beautifully landscaped garden patio. This beautifully landscaped garden provides a picturesque backdrop enjoyed throughout the main level which additionally benefits from the garden’s sunny southern exposure. Throughout this level is a serene palette, recessed and designer lighting, built-in speakers, and rich hardwood floors. The focal point of the living room is the custom media center with built-in bookcases above concealed storage, flanking the stunning stone-faced fireplace. Handsome sliding panels open to reveal a TV. The adjacent dining room is delineated by a striking chandelier and a niche designed for a credenza. The exquisite gourmet kitchen showcases a stunning island finished with honed Pietra Cardosa schist and illuminated by Tom Dixon brass pendants. A wolf cooktop with grill and pot filler is surrounded by a stunning white Macauba slab quartzite. Top of the line stainless steel appliances include a Subzero refrigerator and wine refrigerator, Fisher & Paykel dishwasher drawers, and Dornbracht fixtures. Informal dining may be enjoyed at the counter or at the breakfast nook overlooking the garden. Adjacent to the garden door, a wet bar with wine refrigerator and bar sink enhances entertaining with style and convenience. A discreet powder room with a porcelain sink and crystal sconces complete this level. This entire level offers the perfect balance of expansive entertaining space and casual, yet stylish, everyday comfort.
Top Level: The entire top floor is dedicated to the sublime primary suite, enhanced by soothing hues, shuttered and draped windows, and a stone-faced gas fireplace with closets flanking either side. A comfortable lounge at the bay window provides a glimpse of the bay and Alcatraz. An adjacent niche nicely fits a desk or chest of drawers. A built-in window seat adjacent to the custom designed, walk-in closet makes a comfortable spot to lay out clothes or put on shoes. The luminous ensuite bathroom epitomizes luxury, featuring a herringbone-patterned marble floor that adds timeless elegance. The double porcelain sinks are complemented by Dornbracht fixtures, all set within a pristine white marble countertop, creating a sophisticated and spa-like retreat. A mature Japanese maple tree is the backdrop for the sculptural soaking tub, a view enjoyed as well from the glass enclosed stall shower. A glass door with a screen opens to the adjacent deck. Completing this bath is a separate water closet and a large walk-in closet.
The lower-level features two bedrooms each with a beautifully finished, ensuite bath. The bedroom at the rea has French doors that open to a fresh air patio. Off the hall is a laundry which may be concealed with sliding doors. Opposite, a door opens to stairs which lead internally to the 2-car garage with great storage space.
House-like, this property is technically a condominium with the adjacent townhome, 1911B Vallejo. There is no common area apart from the concrete wall between the two homes. No HOA fees – each owner pays separately for his own insurance, water, garbage removal, PG&E, gardener, and maintenance.

PACIFIC HEIGHTS
Neighborhood
∎
This delightful townhouse is situated on a lovely tree-lined street and boasts a 98 Walk Score® - “A Walker’s Paradise – Daily errands do not require a car.” Indeed, it is only two blocks away from the cafés, restaurants, and boutiques on popular Union Street. Also close by are Chestnut St., Fillmore St., and Polk Street attractions. Nearby Parks include Allyne Park and Lafayette Park, both dog friendly. Some of the best private schools are also moments away. Pacific Heights is considered one of the most scenically advantaged locations in the world. It is bordered to the west by a mature forest of pine, cypress, and eucalyptus trees which the army began planting in the Presidio in the 1880s. To the north is Crissy Field, originally a rich salt marsh at the bay’s edge and now a wildlife sanctuary. A little further west is the new Tunnel Tops Park. Just beyond is the Golden Gate Bridge and Marin Headlands. All are protected sites within the Golden Gate National Recreation Area (GGNRA), one of the largest urban national parks in the world with virtually every recreational possibility.
