Property is move-in ready.
While built in 1914, the property is exceptionally well-maintained and move-in ready. It features a custom-designed kitchen and high-end finishes like Madrone floors and preserved woodwork. However, the low home energy score suggests that while the aesthetics are high-quality, the core systems may not have the full modernization required for an 'excellent' rating.
The property boasts breathtaking, unobstructed views of the San Francisco Bay, Golden Gate Bridge, and city lights, significantly enhancing its prestige and long-term value.
A dedicated lower-level studio featuring a separate entrance, kitchen, and bath provides excellent flexibility for rental income, multi-generational living, or a private guest suite.
This 1914 Craftsman retains exquisite historic details, including Madrone hardwood floors, box beam ceilings, and Julia Morgan-inspired tile, offering a rare blend of soul and craftsmanship.
With a Home Energy Score of 1, the residence likely lacks modern insulation and efficient systems, which may lead to higher utility costs and the need for immediate weatherization upgrades.
Given the 1914 construction date, the property may require ongoing capital investment to maintain or modernize aging infrastructure such as plumbing, electrical, or foundation elements.
