The much-anticipated sale of the Robertson Estate along Russian Hill's Gold Coast is a moment to pause, to appreciate, and lay hold to a historic ownership opportunity in the life of San Francisco's oldest surviving residential property. Built during the Gold Rush years in sole majesty along the northern slope of Russian Hill, the panoramic views of 825 Francisco Street from the Golden Gate Bridge to Coit Tower tell the story of San Francisco's boom-bust history. Behind the entry gate is a private oasis, a country home in the city, and one of San Francisco's last remaining legacy estates. The 8,440 square foot, five-bedroom residence offers an elegant lifestyle for those who value privacy and the experience of high-quality indoor/outdoor living within the city limits. Impeccably maintained over its current thirty-eight-year ownership period, this sale represents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to steward the next chapter of one of San Francisco's most important private residences.
