Esteemed early-20th-century architect Edgar Mathews designed this enchanting home as his private residence. Built in 1907 on a desirable cul-de-sac near the Presidio and the Lyon Street Steps in Pacific Heights, it spans 5,140 sqft and offers four bedrooms, four and one half baths, formal living and dining rooms, and multiple decks with enviable views on all five levels. Beyond a brick-paved entry courtyard with storybook charm is a roomy foyer with richly hued oak floors and a classical chandelier. It flows to the elegant central stairway, a discreet powder room with a sink hidden in a corner cabinet, and a grand living room with a wall of built-ins, fireplace, wet bar, and a magnificent view enjoyed via wide windows and a glass-railed deck. On the level below is a bright kitchen with a gas range, double ovens, an island, and a banquette with a wonderful view. Steps away is a dining room with wainscoting, a wall of glass opening to a deck enjoying a stunning view, and two closets with built-ins. Completing this floor is a bedroom or home office with built-in bookshelves, an en suite bath with vintage fixtures and fittings, a spacious laundry room with a sink, and a very spacious storage room. On the fourth level are the three bedrooms, including the principal suite with a balcony looking out toward the bay, a gas fireplace, a walk-in closet with three walls of built-ins, and an en suite bath with a modern vanity, a step-in shower, and an additional closet with built-ins. The two guest bedrooms share a bath with a tub shower. Tucked amid the dormers and eaves is a versatile space with a contemporary bath and unique walls of windows affording glorious light and access to the roof deck with a fire pit and incredible views of Alcatraz, the Palace of Fine Arts, Marin, and the Bay. On the lowest level is a family room with its own deck and stairs that wind downhill to a secluded patio.
