It was last month that we let you in on the rumor that #1201 in The Royal Towers was quietly being shopped around for $7,000,000. And it was last week that it officially hit the market (along with some photos) for $6,750,000. And no, we don’t think we had... Read More »

Originally the developer’s unit, #1701 in The Royal Towers (1750 Taylor) boasts panoramic bridge to bridge (and everything in between) views, as well as the only gas range in the building (yes, it’s good to be the developer).

From the gothic dining room, to the 80’s bathroom, to the modern kitchen, the interior of 898 Francisco manages to span quite a few eras. And while Victorian doesn’t seem to be one of them, it still feels like a quintessential San Francisco property. Then again, perhaps that’s just... Read More »

One of the three oldest houses on Russian Hill, 930 Chestnut Street, had its first open house on Sunday, “by appointment only”. A 3,000 square feet fixer with resplendent original ornate ceilings, fireplaces and Tommy Church garden. Not much has been done since the new kitchen was chronicled as... Read More »

The price tag on the Verdier/Scholes Mansion at 1001 Vallejo Street has just been reduced $2,000,000 (14.3%). And while it’s still just a bit out of our reach at $12 million, we love it (and the views) nonetheless. ∙ Add Your Name To This Mansion ∙ A Much Bigger... Read More »

Four months ago we highlighted 1750 Taylor #1301, a stunning six million dollar condo that left us salivating (and no, we still haven’t had a chance to wake up in that bed). At the time, the unit directly below (#1201) was being offered for half a million less, but... Read More »

The Verdier/Scholes Mansion at 1001 Vallejo is quintessential old-school (and old-money) San Francisco. We’re talking a conservatory, secret garden, and terraces galore.
