What can be more San Franciscan than a majestic Victorian home, with an inviting garden, on a beautiful tree-lined street, in the immediate vicinity of many of the vibrant cafes and restaurants that define our extraordinary City? 249 Fair Oaks is a fully detached 19th century architectural masterpiece that has been lovingly restored and remodeled to the delight of its 21st century stewards. The graceful Victorian home is a celebration of aesthetic pleasure that carefully balances the charm and refinement of what is old, with the utility and functionality of what is new. To live in this home is to be constantly reminded of the joy that craftsmanship, art, and beauty offer us; contributing mightily to our inner peace, power, and pleasure. With 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, voluminous public rooms, all on an irregular 32' x 117' lot, the home abounds in unique features and amenities. The Victorian era bay windows, grand staircase, quiet veranda, ornate fireplaces, endless architectural detail, and intricately adorned dining room chandelier, blend seamlessly with the modern chef's kitchen, featuring a BlueStar Range and wall oven, Sub-Zero refrigerator, marble counters, center island, breakfast room, and more. The gated side driveway leads to a full garage / basement that will delight "motor heads", cyclists, and all those with lots of life's "good stuff" who dream of having the storage space to keep, collect, and display it! Mature shade trees grace the whimsical east garden, adding to the privacy, serenity, and allure of this San Francisco oasis. The stoutly built rear staircase leads all the way up from the garden level to the roof level, from which views of the downtown skyline and Bay Bridge serve as a constant reminder that 1849 marked but one of the many Gold Rushes that have brought artists, visionaries, disruptors, and entrepreneurs to the shores of our beloved City, generation after generation.
