A Polished and Unique Historic Home in San Francisco Looks for $9.9M

New England may be the first place that comes to mind when thinking of shingle-style homes, but that doesn’t mean the classic architectural style isn’t alive and well on the West Coast. In San Francisco, this early 20th-century home in the refined Presidio Heights neighborhood showcases the look, and is up for grabs for $9,900,000.

Built in 1907 and designed by renowned Bay Area architect Bernard Maybeck, who was a leader of the Arts and Crafts Movement, the space has been tuned up throughout the years by other designers Michael Taylor and Tucker & Marks. Tucked into the highly desirable neighborhood across from Presidio Park, the home’s wood-forward design fits seamlessly with the environment to provide a natural, easy feel. Maybeck’s original design is the main level of the home, finished with wood surround walls to set the tone for the rest of the home’s space.

After a renovation in 2016, the 5,202-square-foot home’s moody exterior is mirrored beautifully by bright and polished interiors. Spanning across four floors, the space is perfect for a family wanting to live in both the city yet one of the finest neighborhoods. Custom office and rec spaces are primed for work and play, especially when the family room overlooks a garden and pond.

Encompassing a total of five bedrooms and four full bathrooms, a meticulous setup of the spaces allows for ample privacy and lush relaxation. The primary suite occupies half of the second floor, offering a walk-in closet and dressing room, as well as a luxurious bathroom outfitted in baby blue. What better way to end the day than a night in the soaker tub?
