Overview

The once stately turn of the century Victorian has experienced a rebirth for elegant up-to-date urban living in the 21st Century. The prestigious firm of Artthaus with Riaz Taplin has created a light-filled, spacious & exciting interior environment with a strong connection to the exquisitely landscaped east garden.

Traditional finishes and materials have been interwoven throughout the house, effecting an aesthetic consistent with its historic lineage, along with modern elements to bring lightness and sophistication. State-of-the-art systems--entertainment, communications, energy efficiency and security--have been carefully thought out for enjoyment and comfort.

The larger “heart of the house” is the entire length of Upper Fillmore, a walker’s paradise: fine restaurants, casual cafés, exciting contemporary fashion, personal services and fitness facilities, the nearby Alta and recently renovated Lafayette Parks to Japan Center and the Fillmore Jazz District. You couldn’t ask for more of a central location!

Main Level

Ascend the handsome, wide slate staircase to the arched entrance with tall, carved wood entry door.

The dramatic two-story ENTRY FOYER with grand staircase & cascade railing is infused with natural light from the 10' x 20' custom skylight.

Ample storage and closets line the foyer hall behind three pairs of tall double doors.

The expansive LIVING ROOM features tall doorways and ceilings with deep crown molding, gas fireplace with Venetian plaster surround and transomed picture window looks out to the street scene.

The formal yet open DINING ROOM is ideal for large scale entertaining or comfortable family dining.

The invitingly large, custom KITCHEN is the gourmet cook's delight with adjoining open family room with great space for socializing. The family room overlooks and accesses the patio/garden at the lower level.

Upper Level

The sweeping staircase with the oversized signature skylight leads to the exceptionally light and airy landing with sculpture balcony and running half rails.

The private MASTER SUITE features: Spacious MASTER BEDROOM overlooking the patio/garden; custom built-in desk or display table and walk-in dressing room with ample wardrobe storage.

Garden Level

The garden level, designed by Flora Grubb, with side entrance serves multiple needs, such as at-home office with built-in work station, extended family or permitted au pair quarters or artist's studio. It features:
