SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 27, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Perched on a coveted cul-de-sac on Russian Hill, the work-of-art home encompasses the full-floor of one of San Francisco's most iconic 1920s towers. The property, listed by the SF Real Properties team of Harry Clark, Kira Mead and Danny Fernandez Acebo, is set to hit the market this Spring.
Purchased more than a decade ago by a passionate art collector seeking to create a showcase worthy of a world class collection of bronze, glass and antiques, the home was renovated over several years by Interior Designers, Craig Leavitt and Stephen Weaver of Central California, best recognized for their work at the nearby Getty residence. Skilled craftsmanship, fine design, and exquisite materials merge perfectly to create a true work of art, the result of a successful collaboration of design professionals, contractors, artisans and the owners.
The spirit of the home is captured immediately upon arrival into a grand nautilus shaped gallery featuring a continuous curved wall of polished teak casework, created with a golden palette of wood and bronze and complemented by mica sheathed wall panels. Thoughtful lighting creates a warm luminous mood contrasting with the dramatic glimpses to water and sky beyond. Wenge plank flooring with inlays of bronze carry the central curved axis of the gallery design throughout the home.
“This is as much a work of art as it is a home. We’re looking for the buyer who wants a truly unique sanctuary in the heart of the city; someone who appreciates the extraordinary architecture of this home; and someone who understands the value associated with both its design and execution. This is a home that cannot be re-created at any cost,” states Harry Clark.
The adjoining north and west facing living spaces, enhanced by dramatic views over the City and Bay, feature custom designed banquettes covered in leather, mohair or silk velvet, which integrate into the architecture of the home while the more secluded kitchen space is suitably appointed with custom lacquer finished cabinetry and granite countertops. Positioned for privacy, the master suite and study boasts views of San Francisco’s skyline and the Bay Bridge. The suite features exquisitely designed casework, walk-in closet and a beautifully articulated bath with walk-in shower and custom vanity. Part of the extensive renovation, anti-reflective Starphire windows throughout the home ensure a crisp panoramic vista to the surrounding cityscape.
