INTO THE WOODS

ULTRA MODERN URBAN ESCAPE

140 Clarendon Street, San Francisco, CA

Situated on the slope of Mount Sutro in San Francisco. This sophisticated sanctuary takes advantage of the lush site in a dense eucalyptus grove, and uses the windows to frame the views from Buena Vista Park to downtown and beyond.

Sustainably harvested ipe (a tropical hardwood) creates a bridge between the entrance and the front door, made of aluminum; the stainless-steel railings have been designed to withstand damage from moisture.

Inside, the house is light-filled with sun streaming in through the high windows, an effect heightened by such details as beech wood flooring, and each window framing a different scene as if it were an individual piece of artwork. In the kitchen, a custom 20 foot stainless-steel countertop is the focal point of this state-of-the-art chef's kitchen.

The main level consists of a large open living room with views to downtown, kitchen, formal dining room, media room and powder room.

Downstairs, is the master suite with ensuite bath featuring a custom granite sink, oak counter and cabinets, mosaic floor tiles, steam shower and a soaking tub overlooking the vibrant green forest. The adjacent dressing area has banks of built-in, floor-to-ceiling cabinets. In addition this floor has two spacious guest rooms, a guest bath and a large laundry room with side x side washer and dryer.

The lower floor has a home office and gym. The gym with high ceilings offers direct access to the lush landscaped garden and the hot tub.

The two car garage will accommodate two large vehicles.
