The last time this home was on the market in 2010, Prince William and Kate Middleton weren't yet engaged and Gavin Newsom was mayor of San Francisco. It sold for $8,350,000, according to public records. Twelve years later, the historic property is asking $35 million.
The home's interior is sleek: hardwood floors, modern cabinetry, tall ceilings and natural light bathing large, open spaces. In the penthouse room, hugged by the wraparound rooftop deck, walls are swapped for windows. In the foyer and kitchen, the wood floor is swapped for a marble and a tasteful tiling. There is a room for every possible use — a gym, an office, a den, dinning and dressing rooms — and then a few extra, too.
The property has a full seismic upgrade, along with a laundry list of other renovations, modernizations and amenities. Including, of course, a laundry room. Other standout features include an elevator to all four floors, a 1,500-bottle temperature controlled wine cellar, three garages and a motor court. According to the listing website, “No expense was spared to ensure the end product was of the highest quality craftsmanship and millwork,” according the sales sheet.
