San Francisco's Crown Jewel$29,000,000For Sale

Occupying the highest full floor atop 2006 Washington, this unforgettable apartment underwent a masterful, multi-year redesign & renovation under the leadership of the award-winning team of architect Andrew Skurman, interior designer Suzanne Tucker, and Moroso Construction.  With window after window revealing a full panorama that encompasses icons from the Golden Gate past Alcatraz and Coit Tower to the Transamerica Pyramid and beyond, the aerie reclaims magnificent architectural details while sensitively incorporating a globally curated collection of materials and design elements.  Every space and amenity have been thoughtfully adapted for today’s technologically-oriented sensibility.

The beguiling Beaux-Arts building at 2006 Washington Street rivals other distinguished structures in cities around the world. Over the century since its design and construction in 1924 by Conrad A. Meussdorffer, it has garnered a reputation as a legendary landmark, a storied locale whose presence feels larger than life. Tech founders, as well as leaders of finance and industry have called this building their home, and it continues to be admired as one of the most luxurious and powerful collections of residences in its city.

Spanning a remarkable 5,700 square feet, this unparalleled home is the crown jewel of Pacific Heights apartments, destined for spectacular living and entertaining, with majestic, strikingly detailed entertaining spaces that open to a dazzling wraparound terrace.

The passenger elevator opens to a vestibule and then an elegant octagonal domed entry hall with a floor of intricately patterned quartzite and marble.  Ornamental plaster ceilings by Foster Reeve transcend time and add eye-catching drama to the aesthetic. The scale is grand yet inviting.

Soaring ceilings contribute to a lofty ambience in the bespoke living room, which features custom-dyed silk-upholstered walls, a fireplace with an 18th-century Italian mantel, and serene, walnut parquet floors. The dining alcove’s mirrored wall allows views to be appreciated at every seat. Contributing to the welcoming air in the family room are Baltic pine paneling with built-ins, a custom-carved marble fireplace, a concealed projector and theater screen, and a stone-clad dry bar.  A spacious family kitchen with a quartzite-topped Baltic pine island and striking hand-glazed blue cabinetry occupies the western side of the residence and opens through arched Palladian-style doors to the terrace with picture-perfect vistas of the Golden Gate.  A full catering kitchen adjoins the formal dining area and is accessed via a hidden doorway.

Each of the two primary bedroom suites is equally luxurious, opens through French doors to terraces, and is accompanied by a generous dressing room and a lavish marble-clad bath. Completing the secluded southern wing is a thoughtfully appointed guest suite. The laundry room offers desirable storage, and the floor plan includes two powder baths, substantial storage and a service elevator.

As the city’s foremost cooperative, 2006 Washington provides residents with an array of amenities. Its handsome brick drive circles a vibrant, meticulously landscaped garden with a fountain, culminating at a regal porte cochère. The lobby is attended full-time and year-round, and ownership conveys parking for two vehicles in a private garage, storage, security, and the knowledge that one’s home is perched high atop one of the most revered buildings in the city, at what is surely its most coveted address.
