Located on a coveted corner lot with excellent sun exposure, this home, designed by Louis M. Upton, is a grand presence on one of the most prestigious streets in Pacific Heights. Introduced by original Carrera marble front steps, the home has a stately arched entryway that is flanked by two stone lions standing sentry and also original to the design. The striking stucco façade is reminiscent of the Spanish-Italian Renaissance. Embellishments include cherub motifs, ornamental florets, and egg-and-dart accents. Planter beds precede a pedestrian entry gate to the courtyards. A solid wood 8-foot tall front door completes the classic aesthetic. In the formal entry parlor, the architects have maximized the view by offering a sightline through the kitchen, capturing the vistas the very moment one passes through the door. Period-authentic architectural details blend seamlessly with a contemporary aesthetic, with finishes that include beautifully stained walnut hardwood floors, deep baseboards, towering ceilings with multiple levels of moldings, and walls of windows for an abundance of natural lighting. The centerpiece elliptical spiral staircase with brass railing and steel spindles is beautifully reminiscent of Upton’s original staircase, a functional access point to all levels of the home. An elevator here accesses every level of the home. Stunning Calacatta Ora marble floors are uplifted by custom inlaid dark Emperador marble accents and a glowing three-ring light fixture.
