This lovingly restored Julia Morgan house has been stylishly and sensitively renovated in the “Arts and Crafts” style to take advantage of the varied and sweeping views of the Bay, Bay Bridge and Coit Tower. The main house has three bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms with an additional legal two bedroom one bath apartment with a separate entrance. Both are vacant. Four of the original Julia Morgan drawings, now archived at the University of California at Berkeley Environmental Design Library were used to guide the restoration. The newly-built four car garage has interior access to both homes. The view balconies and the lovely garden combine to give the house a wonderful feeling of being in the country in the City. All this in one of San Francisco’s most prestigious neighborhoods with easy access both to the shops and restaurants on Hyde Street, in North Beach and on the waterfront. The Hyde Street cable car is only a half block away, making downtown trips incredibly easy, and Michelangelo Park, a great place for adults and children alike to gather, is only two blocks away as well. A convenient interior back stairway leads from the garage level to both units, connecting them with ease.

1126 Filbert:

Walk up the stairs and enter the inviting octagonal foyer that immediately impresses you with the gorgeous view of Coit Tower. To your right is the warm and welcoming living room with great views from windows on either side of an original Julia Morgan brick-face wood-burning fireplace with hand carved details. The original dark wood trim has been lovingly restored and enhanced and there are nice built-in bookshelves. The dining room to the left is cozy and overlooks the pretty, private yard as well as having a large balcony with custom tiling that opens onto the magnificent views. The kitchen has been stylishly remodeled with Carrera marble counters, English hand forged hardware, a Viking stainless steel professional stove, a Jade stainless steel commercial dishwasher, and a stainless steel KitchenAid refrigerator. The upper cabinets have lighting for display. At this level there is a bedroom or office with a closet and a view. An elegant powder room with beautiful ornamental floors and an oversized coat closet complete this floor.

As one ascends the stairs, one passes a useful yet inconspicuous storage space, and immediately notices an abundance of light coming from one of two custom skylights. On this floor there are two master bedroom suites. The front bedroom has a lovely view, a remote-controlled gas fireplace, ample storage space, and a wonderful modern marble bathroom with both a pedestal tub that allows the bather to soak in the views of the bay, Coit Tower, and beyond, as well as a glass enclosed shower with custom cabinetry. The rear bedroom is also splendid, with a balcony, a marble bath also with a glass enclosed shower and custom cabinetry, and equally fabulous views. Both bathrooms are equipped with “Warm Floor” heating. A laundry room with an extra-long marble counter, a linen closet and custom hall skylight completes this level.

1124 Filbert:

This separate legal unit has its own signature Julia Morgan side entry around the side of the house, reached by a brick walkway from which both the views and the surrounding greenery can be enjoyed. Passing the large coat closet, one enters a particularly well-proportioned and gracious living room with a Julia Morgan designed fireplace. The dining room on this floor also has French doors that lead out to the private patio and yard. There are two bedrooms and a fully restored full bathroom with “Warm Floor” heating. The remodeled kitchen is particularly charming, combining the original Julia Morgan kitchen, cabinetry, dish rack, and drawer detail with an additional bank of cabinetry, as well as a new stainless steel Bertazzoni range with a custom hood, a Kitchen Aid dishwasher, and a new stainless steel LG refrigerator – all the elements of a modern kitchen while maintaining the intricate historical framework.

The Garden Level:

At this level there is a large room that could serve nicely as an office, exercise or play room. The yard is landscaped and has a beautiful fountain on the wall that lends the property a serene and restful air. The room is accessible from both the lower unit (through the garden), or from the garage directly. The newly built multi-car garage was designed by Santos & Urrutia, and built by Add-A-Garage.
