Luxury Designer Pad in the Heart of SF

Experience luxury in this recently renovated designer pad in the heart of San Francisco. This urban oasis is over a century old and was originally owned by a renowned photographer and student of Ansel Adams. This suite was previously used as his dark room where he developed a lot of his famous work!

The private guest-suite features two bedrooms, two bathrooms (one shower, one bath), an open plan living and dining space with a sleek custom kitchen. Set on a corner lot, this remodelled Victorian is a chic and quiet retreat ideal for couples, families, business travellers or people looking to work remotely.

One bedroom overlooks the garden and offers spectacular views of the San Francisco skyline. It's hard to beat sitting in bed by a large bay window and looking out beyond the wisteria and roses to the city lights. Bedroom two has a French window that opens onto the deck with access to the garden as well.

Brand new deck (accessible, both from the second bedroom and living room) leads to a charming little English garden flush with roses and hummingbirds. Find your way to the middle of the garden and perch yourself on the bench under the Wisteria for a quite read or some peaceful yoga under the blooms. Engulfed by the smell and sight of roses and the lights of downtown San Francisco as your backdrop, enjoy a starry night under the Wisteria with a hot mug of cocoa or a nice glass of Californian wine (Psst, if you’re nice, the host might indulge you with a glass of complimentary local wine).

HIGHLIGHTS:
• The kitchen features a brand new electric stove, microwave, a stylish Smeg refrigerator, wet bar and Bosch Dishwasher. Also provided are high-end appliances such as a Vitamix, Nespresso (Organic coffee, tea and Sugar included).
• Luxury bedding, organic bath (100% bamboo toilet paper, organic shampoo, conditioner, and body soap) and kitchen products provided.
• In-unit laundry with detergent provided.
• Smart radiant heat under the floors throughout the house (turned on ahead of your visit on nippy days)
• Excellent fiber internet
• 24hour check-in with Nest door lock
• Top of the line finishes including gorgeous hardwood floors, custom glass, marble, lighting and cabinetry.
• Majestic views of the San Francisco skyline from the garden room
• Small dog and cat friendly!

My family and I live upstairs. Please let us know if you are coming on a family vacation, a romantic getaway or a business trip to Silicon Valley so we can make suggestions accordingly.

Kids are most welcome (we have one human and canine growing up in this house). Based on your profile, we can drop off books, games, scooters, bicycles, a yoga mat (unwind on our deck or garden!) and occasionally some freshly baked goodies. We will also provide some nosh for your first day. Should you be so inclined, we also have a stash of amazing local and international wine!

With its vintage atmosphere and modern conveniences, unwind in our home that exudes comfort, care, inspiration & relaxation. Come and feel true San Francisco history and hospitality.

Great Visit, Super Responsive Host

It was a wonderful stay - thank you so much. I gave the host some heads up about things to note after we'd left and he jumped in while we were out to deal with it straight away. I really appreciated that!

Better than the photos

We took our annual friends trip to SF this year and stayed in this perfect apartment. The finishes are top notch and the location was great. Other than parking on the steep hills, we had a great time and would absolutely stay again!

Tastefully designed apartment to explore the quintessential San Francisco

Comfortable, clean and stylish place to explore San Francisco. The apartment has everything you need for a comfortable stay, including a pleasant outdoors with city views. Few nice neighborhood cafes! Excellent beds and bathrooms. Very friendly owner; easy communications. Need I say more?

Great host in a great location

We had a wonderful stay and will return as our family friends live just blocks away. The apartment is thoughtfully outfitted with everything you might need. Very responsive and helpful host. The location was beautiful. The apartment is located on a steep hill, which was fine for us, but might be a challenge for anyone not able-bodied.

Nice and quiet home.

The home was clean, cozy and a wonderful stay for the night. The garden in the back was absolutely stunning. So many varieties of flowers - just fell in love with this secret garden in the city. Although there was no TV we brought games and enjoyed playing them while listening to music - no biggie for us. The kitchen was nicely stocked but lacked some basic items like olive oil but we just walked to the market. The neighborhood was quiet and safe. We would visit and stay again at this location.

A great place

Stayed here twice. It was downstairs which guess I didn’t notice in the description. It was fine but I was in a boot after foot surgery. The entrance was a challenge because of that and. the street is steep but I had help. So if you have mobility issues, this may not be the place for you. Other than that, it accommodates two couples beautifully. Wish the back yard had a place to sit as there is a nice view of the city. No TV if that’s a game changer for you. The host was absolutely wonderful and easy to contact.

Great place to stay

The location was great, close to several shops and restaurants. We mainly chose this house based on proximity to the house of a family member. I do want to say it felt a little hot most nights, even with the heat off. Maybe adding a fan to each bedroom would help with that (there was only one). The host was very responsive and pleasant. We had to message a couple of times and received prompt responses. Overall, I would recommend this place. If I go back, I will probably stay there again. Thank you!

Cool SF pad

My two friends and I stayed in this cute Noe Valley apartment to attend a concert at the chase center. The place was very nice, clean and the host was kind enough to leave almond milk as I’m vegan. The space was very new modern and chic. Loved the shower and beds comfy. Restaurants about 5 blocks or so. We very much enjoyed our stay. The garden area was serene with a fantastic view of the city. About 15 minutes or less to chase center via Uber. We were very happy to find this adorable place. Reasonably priced and would recommend to anyone! Stairs down to the lower level and steep hill right outside so those with mobility issues should consider this.
