On coveted, quiet, tree-lined Hill street, in the heart of the sought-after Liberty Hill Historic district, this two level, semi-detached Italianate Victorian home with a remodeled standalone two bedroom rear cottage, was renovated to the studs in 2007 as the designer-owners' primary residence. The stunning home, which features three bedrooms on the top level, two and a half baths, a fireplace, two car parking, a 99 WalkScore, and a tranquil garden, is truly a rare find!
The main level features high ceilings, exquisite moldings, custom details, and radiant heated wood floors. The expansive double parlor with bay windows and a gas fireplace functions beautifully as a formal living room and a family room/den. Extra large formal dining room with bay windows overlooking the verdant side yard. The scale and layout of these rooms provides the perfect entertaining flow and ample space for large gatherings! The designer kitchen features custom cabinetry, Caesarstone countertops, integrated Subzero refrigerator, Viking stove, Bosch dishwasher, convection/microwave, and walk-in pantry. The kitchen opens to the private, lush, rear garden and patio with mature plantings. A sleek powder room completes the main level.
Up the gorgeous wood banister staircase to three spacious bedrooms and two full baths all on one level — a coveted and rare floor plan. The primary bedroom offers a sitting area, walk-in closet with custom casework, and skylight. The sumptuous primary ensuite bath offers a heated quartzite slab floor, a tiled shower, a deep soaking tub, and ample storage. A third bedroom opens with French doors to a deck overlooking the garden. All the bedrooms offer wood floors and fabulous light. A laundry space and a second, renovated tiled full bath complete the top level.
Upgraded electrical, plumbing, roof and insulation. Tankless water heater. Radiant heating on both levels with 5 thermostat-controlled zones. Full ~7ft ceiling basement with ample workspace and storage. Structural upgrades as well as voluntary anchoring and shear wall.
The stately home and cottage sit on an expansive, verdant ~3400 ft lot with a rare 30' width, providing space for a side driveway with two car parking, and private access both to the side garden and to the standalone rear cottage. The remodeled two bedroom cottage boasts 10' ceilings, a wood burning fireplace, a spacious butcher block eat-in kitchen, and its own laundry closet. The cottage is perfect for income generation, offices, au pair, guests, and intergenerational living. With windows on all four sides, it lives like a luxurious cabin in the woods.
This quiet, low-traffic block of Hill street is also a "Walker's Paradise," boasting a 99 WalkScore. Its prime location at the intersection of Dolores Heights, Mission Dolores, and Noe Valley is just steps, in any direction, to world class restaurants, markets, coffee shops, theaters, cocktail bars, and boutiques. Walk to the J-Church, BART, several MUNI stops, and tech shuttles. This special property is truly a rare find!
