San Francisco Home For Sale

Boasting intimate views and abundant light on three sides from a southerly exposure, this stately, renovated home is a rare find, not having been on market in over 100 years. Designed by the historically significant architect A. Page Brown, the home was one of the first examples of the influential First Bay Tradition, an epicenter for the Arts and Crafts Movement. The timeless floor plan features an easy flow over 4,010 square feet with 5 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, and additional expansive, generously proportioned interior spaces. Built in 1894, coinciding with the construction of the historic Swedenborgian Church directly next door, it was intended as a parsonage. In 1900 the residence was bought by acclaimed artist William Keith, a member and friend of the church. In 2011, the renowned Architectural Resources Group completed a historic structures report on the home, and in 2012, the owners began an extensive renovation of the property based upon those findings and recommendations. The structural repair and modernization effort included the creation of a new kitchen, exterior renovation, new bathrooms, plus upgraded electrical, plumbing and heating systems. A serene garden, patio, potting shed and secured gated access make this home a true oasis in the heart of San Francisco.
