Luxurious living in Cole valley
New condos boast dramatic design, sophisticated elegance
Dramatic, modern and tasteful, 1169 Stanyan St. and 1171 Stanyan St. in Cole Valley provide the ideal example of contemporary living in San Francisco.
“These homes are the epitome of condominium living,” said Ed Deleski of Vanguard Properties, who is representing each of the luxury residences.
Each condominium boasts an open floor plan, gourmet kitchen and private outdoor space. Radiant heating, garage parking for two cars (per unit), a video intercom, security system and deeded storage are only some of the amenities accompanying each unit.
Spacious great rooms feature floor-to-ceiling windows, corner fireplaces and hardwood flooring. These rooms look east at clusters of houses ascending Alma Street. Caesarstone counters and Bertazzoni ranges outfit the chef’s kitchens. Cabinets that stretch to the ceiling are finished in natural walnut and white matte paint.
The building’s façade is finished with an ultra-smooth stucco and defined by a cantilevered roof, hovering above the top-level terrace. Not only does this detail define and shelter the outdoor living space, it also lends a striking visual distinction to the otherwise understated facade.
The Cole Valley residences enjoy quick access to vibrant public parks and paths. Grattan Playground sits diagonally across the street. A trail to the Mount Sutro Open Space Preserve begins two blocks south.
Of course, both condominiums offer private outdoor spaces of their own. The singlestory residence features an Ipe deck accessible from the living room and a terraced rear patio and garden. At 1171 Stanyan St., private decks are accessed from the kitchen and each of the top-floor bedrooms.
Individually listed, 1169 Stanyan St. is available for $2.2 million, while the offer price for the three-bedroom, two-level condominium at 1171 Stanyan St. sits at $3.5 million.
