1080 Chestnut Street # 3B

Atop Russian Hill's Francisco Park, this impeccably reimagined and refined pied-a-terre has been the San Francisco home of award-winning architect Andrew Skurman. Following a stunning transformation of space to increase scale and sight-lines of this bucolic neighborhood, Alcatraz, and the San Francisco Bay, this jewel-box apartment strikes a rare balance between city sophistication and ultimate comfort for both entertaining and unwinding. Inspired by architect Gio Ponti and artistic designer Piero Fornasetti, the apartment was designed to the Italian midcentury standard. The living room benefits from rare cross-light orientation, receiving north and south light. Walls painted in Farrow & Ball's Borrowed Light'' connect with clouds, sky, and Bay, creating an ethereal balance. A commitment to clean lines, the modern showcase kitchen anchors the living space with sophisticated materials, abundant cabinetry for concealed storage. The balcony provides a serene vantage point for enjoying Bay views and the charm of Russian Hill. Perfectly suited for second-home seekers, this residence blends architectural pedigree, elevated design, and one of San Francisco's most desirable locations into a truly special city retreat.
