On one of the best Telegraph Hill bedrock blocks, in a stunning art deco building with a unique, gracious circular entryway, is a hidden treasure. This WOW, iconic San Francisco residence will knock your socks off. 

Upon entering, you are immediately captivated by the scale of the living/dining room and its staggering views. This corner unit features an east-facing wall of floor-to-ceiling windows with views of SF's fabled piers, the Bay Bridge, Yerba Buena Island and beyond. A glass door opens to the attached deck, overlooking the best view in town. The north-facing window wall showcases Alcatraz, and the San Francisco Bay Estuary beyond. 

It is hard to capture what you see when you enter the apartment with words or photographs -- you must visit to appreciate it. Having north and east-facing water views in the same open living/dining room is unique.




The kitchen features a cadmium yellow Bertazzoni gas range, and you can do dishes overlooking a view of the Bay. The primary bedroom, with an ensuite bath, has a view of Coit Tower. The second bedroom also has a Coit Tower view and its own full bathroom. 

This is a very special, quintessential San Francisco apartment. A secure building, one-car parking in the underground garage, and a storage room complete the unit. The building recently underwent retrofit engineering and elevator modernization. This two-bedroom, two-bath residence is unprecedented and stunning!

Neighborhood

At the center of any description of San Francisco you'll find North Beach. Beginning at the juncture of Broadway and Columbus, North Beach spreads north to the bay, and down to Telegraph Hill. This most authentic San Francisco district is home to a vibrant Italian-American community. It also has the distinction of being the spiritual home of the beat poets who rose to fame in the 50s and 60s.
 
 This exciting stretch of city brings a devil-may-care attitude to city life. While tourists thumbing their guidebooks mix with frat house style revelers each weekend, the real North Beach, and those who call it home, exists in the delightful hillside streets surrounding. Those lucky enough to live here, enjoy evening's awe-inspiring views from hilltop patios in the rows of exquisite family homes that line the elevated blocks.
 
 It's in the dimly lit old-fashioned neighborhood haunts where one can still find the authentic life of North Beach. City Lights, the infamous rebel poet bookstore, is where Alan Ginsgerg's HOWL was first published. Some of the most extraordinary shopping in the city can be done along Grant Street in the upscale boutiques. And above all, don't miss your chance to have some of the best Italian food this side of the Amalfi Coast. A remarkable dining opportunity at your fingertips thanks to a history of immigrants who made this area home in the 1920's and 30s. 
 
 The "beach" in North Beach is no longer there. There was a time where the tides of the bay lapped up against Taylor and Francisco Street. Today that waterfront has long since been replaced by 19th century landfill, known now as the Barbary Coast.
