Perched atop a stately Victorian, this top-floor 3-bedroom, 2-bath residence has been extensively remodeled to pair refined modern living with late-19th-century architectural character. The façade is pure romance, with ornate cornices and decorative brackets showcasing masterful craftsmanship. Inside, coveted southern exposure and top-floor positioning bathe the front rooms in luminous natural light, while soaring ceilings enhance the sense of scale. Intricate wainscoting, ceiling medallions, and decorative fireplaces in both the living and dining rooms create an elegant backdrop thoughtfully complemented by seamless indoor-outdoor flow. A spacious attic runs the whole length of the apartment, offering potential for future expansion (buyer to verify), essentially doubling the sq ft footprint, completing this private, elevated retreat above one of San Francisco’s most storied corridors.

The living spaces unfold beautifully, beginning with a light-filled living room that sets the tone for everyday comfort and gathering. A formal dining room follows, distinguished by a decorative fireplace and intricate molding, well-suited for dinners and intimate gatherings. The extensively remodeled kitchen is designed for the true culinary enthusiast, pairing timeless style with performance through high-end appliances, and opening seamlessly to a private walk-out deck overlooking the shared backyard for effortless indoor-outdoor living. The home’s private quarters include a primary en-suite bedroom with a dual-option bath featuring a deep soaking tub and a separate shower stall, a third bedroom offering versatile use as a guest room or home office, and a flexible front room that functions well as either an additional living space or bedroom.

Set within a Walker’s Paradise (96 Walk Score®), the home sits at the crossroads of some of San Francisco’s most beloved destinations. Neighborhood institutions like Zazie and Bi-Rite Market are just moments away, while the green expanses of Golden Gate Park, Buena Vista Park, and the Panhandle offer an unmatched urban-nature balance. Eclectic shopping, cafés, and culture along Haight Street are right outside your door, and with the N-Judah Muni line approximately a quarter mile away, downtown and BART are a quick, effortless ride—making this address as convenient as it is undeniably cool.

"Our initial consultation was one of the most memorable discussions we’ve had with someone in the business. She demonstrated through examples how creative, solutions-oriented and innovative her approach was; notably how her team adapted to the covid-19 environment through novel and personal marketing and attention to detail via virtual experiences. Other Realtors offered us a lower rate but we believe we got the quality and caliber we paid for."
N.O., Seller
"Ruth is a down-to-earth, friendly pit bull who represented us well and never let her guard down. She prepared us, protected us, and positioned us for what could not have been a more successful sale."
J.R., Seller
"In this very tough market, she got my family into a fantastic home. I was getting ready to walk away from the SF market altogether, because I just didn't think we could find what we wanted in a home at a price we could pay. Ruth is an absolute pro and helped us get the house we wanted. Ruth is a master real estate agent and the one you want in San Francisco."
H.H & A.P., Buyer
"In such a competitive market we needed an edge to get the home we wanted and we found that with Ruth and her team. She is down to earth, very personable and a master negotiator. She is honest, understanding, and not just out to make the sale."
R.M., Buyer
"Ruth was quick to assess our needs, the property needs, and the San Francisco market needs. She considered the property thoughtfully as she made recommendations for any renovations or work required. Her experience and knowledge as an interior designer is an asset. She creatively played with the space to increase its marketability and our home was beautifully displayed. We were pleased with the amount of offers and felt that Ruth's knowledge attributed to our success."
