Ever wondered what it would be like to live in an original San Francisco home?
One of the few Bay Area homes that remains un-remodeled and unbesmirched by demands for updated amenities, this Pac Heights house was built in 1895 by Irving Murphy Scott as a wedding gift to his daughter. Designed by renowned architect Ernest Coxhead, the house boasts an eclectic, turn-of-the-century style commonly referred to as Jacobean, that stands out from its Victorian neighbors. Plus, it has a stellar legacy: the same family has remained in the house for the last 89 years, and it was the first house in San Francisco to get electricity!
Due to its unique location fronting the northern center of Alta Plaza Park, the house boasts spectacular views of San Francisco from nearly every angle. Whether you're chilling in the private gardens or just waking up in the morning, you won't be able to escape these fantastic views. With intricate moldings and millworks, four floors, five bedrooms, six bathrooms, two powder rooms, and an elevator that takes you from the garage up to the house, this is a gem in the heart of Pac Heights.
Now if you'll excuse us, we'll be digging through the couch cushions looking for a couple of spare million in change.
