Set on a beautiful, tree-lined block in the heart of the Richmond District, this exceptional 1914 Craftsman was lovingly restored by its owners as their forever home, honoring its original architecture while embracing thoughtful modern living. Offering five bedrooms and four-and-a-half bathrooms across four levels, the home pairs timeless San Francisco character with sophisticated designer finishes, new foundation and structural upgrade, new systems and windows, CAT 6, and a versatile floor plan. Original woodwork, built-ins, and period details have been carefully preserved, bringing warmth and character to the beautifully updated interiors. The main level was designed for the way we live today, with a stunning chef's kitchen featuring custom cabinetry, Brazilian quartzite countertops, an expansive breakfast bar, pantry closet, and brass accents. The kitchen opens to the breakfast area, dining and living areas, with French doors leading to a spacious east-facing deck and an unusually generous, level backyard. Whether hosting friends for dinner, enjoying a quiet morning coffee, or spending a sunny afternoon in the sun, the connection between indoors and out is effortless. The bedroom level offers comfortable, light-filled bedrooms, a lovely primary suite, and a sunroom/office. Up one more flight, the top floor is its own light-filled retreat: a skylit bedroom, a full bath, and a large bonus room that works as a private suite for long-term guests, a home office, or a studio. Downstairs, a beautifully finished garden level offers a media room, wet bar, bedroom suite, and direct yard access. Modern comforts include forced-air heating and air conditioning on the upper three levels and radiant floor heating on the ground level. Two laundry areas, a two-car garage with a smart door and camera, Schlage keyless entry, and a Tesla charger complete the home. And then there's the neighborhood. Grab coffee around the corner, pick up fresh produce or dinner ingredients along Clement Street, and enjoy an incredible variety of restaurants, bakeries, and independent shops just steps from home. Walk the tree-lined Lake Street corridor, take the dog through Mountain Lake Park, or head into the Presidio for miles of trails and spectacular scenery. Rebuilt for quality, comfort, and longevity, this home offers classic San Francisco character with the ease of a comprehensive modern renovationall in a location that's hard to beat.
