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. |
