Distinguished Italian Renaissance Revival Home

This impressive Italian Renaissance Revival home welcomes with its overwhelming quality, large scale rooms, exceptional architectural character, traditional floor plan, charming gardens, and prime neighborhood location. Built in 1924, in a golden age of skilled craftsmanship, the distinctive home stands out with its symmetrical front façade, centered by a recessed porch with dramatic arched opening, balconette with metal railing above the entry, and wood paneled front door flanked by vertical side windows. Characteristic of the style, the building features two sets of tripartite windows at the first story, and vertical casement windows with inset arch and ornamental floral molding above. In balance, the second story has grouped casement windows above the first story openings. The roof line is adorned by subtle dentil detail at the cornice.

Best described as timeless, the interior layout centers upon a grand formal entry hall and staircase from which the first-floor public rooms flow and upper-level bedrooms divide from a wide hall to the four corners of the house. Ceiling heights are approximately 11’, trayed with deep coving and ornamented with a flourish of decorative crown molding. Recently refinished, floors are hardwood, there is a gas log fireplace with classical surround, custom designer lighting and updated kitchen and baths. You’ll enjoy a large backyard with deck, mature plantings, an enviable butler’s pantry, first-floor laundry room, two-car side-by-side garage and full basement with tall ceilings, storage, and an abundance of potential.

The home is situated on a quiet tree-lined street, near to Terrace Green Park and West Portal Village local shops, restaurants, and great local schools. The home is also convenient to Stonestown Galleria (Whole Foods, Target, and Trader Joe’s) and highways 101 and 280.
