Tour a Polished Pacific Heights Townhouse Asking $5.6M

San Francisco has long been known for its hilly roads—hello Lombard Street—and its eclectic mix of historic architecture. A combination of Victorian, Edwardian, and Art Deco homes can be found throughout the city, wowing with their ornate facades. But, they beg the question, what awaits inside? This Pacific Heights home is an example of finding beauty inside and out, and it’s now on the market asking $5.6 million.

Beloved for its jaw-dropping views of the Golden Gate Bridge, Pacific Heights sits in the northern part of the city. The neighborhood boasts the highest real estate values in the city, but that’s not entirely surprising considering the location and the architectural beauty of the homes. For those who can afford it, this sophisticated townhouse at 2422 Clay Street is beautifully done. It still has period details, such as ornate moldings on the staircase, while also beaming with delicate patterns and new finishes.

On the main level, the floor plan flows seamlessly through two chic living areas, a dining room that seats eight, and of course, a chef’s dream kitchen. Custom cabinetry, waterfall countertops, and a copper range hood create a beautiful backdrop for hosting, and the adjacent outdoor patio and garden is perfect for breezy al fresco living or farm-to-table cooking.

Moving upstairs to the private areas of the home, there are four bedrooms and three full bathrooms designed for pure relaxation. Guests will certainly feel comfortable in their spaces, but the primary suite takes the cake. It opens to a private balcony so you can start the day with immediate fresh air. There’s also a full-scale dressing room and an ensuite bathroom finished in marble for a spa-like retreat.
