Never before available one-of-a-kind 2 bedroom 2.5 bath penthouse in an impeccably maintained boutique Art Deco corner property. Perfectly situated in Cow Hollow at the residential edge of the heart of Union Street, this location is well off the Van Ness-Lombard 101 corridor yet steps directly into the North San Francisco urban village of Union Street, Chestnut Street, Pacific Heights, the Presidio, and the Marina. At 1,734 square feet, this home was thoughtfully reimagined and condo-converted from the studs, including bespoke contemporary design and high-end finishes, two ensuite bedrooms, a powder room, a fireplace, a private deck, and both City and Bay views. This is the first time this unit has ever been offered; it is currently tenant occupied. The entry opens into a great room with vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, a half bath powder room, and a wood-burning fireplace. Adjacent to the great room living/entertaining complex is a south-facing guest suite that includes built-in library-style shelving, a walk-in closet, an ensuite bath with steam shower, and an enclosed in-unit laundry closet. On the bay facing end to the North is the primary suite offering a walk-in closet, a spa-like bath with soaking tub, a separate shower, and a more private family room with a walk out deck and Bay views. The primary and secondary host-guest suites are connected by a gourmet galley kitchen equipped with double ovens, a 5-burner gas cooktop, hood vent, dishwasher, side-by-side refrigerator, double sink with disposal, granite counters, custom cabinetry, and a wet bar. Top floor bay windows, recessed lighting, and a built-in 5-zone audio system complete the sense of bright, easy, and incredibly livable modernity wrapped in the epitome of old San Francisco charm. The unit also includes dedicated parking with its own individual/private garage door as well as a separate secure storage room in the basement.
