Five levels of luxury living in Presidio Heights
Built by a renowned architect in 1912 and thoroughly updated in 2022, 3747 Jackson St. showcases timeless luxury across five levels. Located in the coveted Presidio Heights neighborhood, the nearly 7,000-square-foot home was conceptualized by C. F. Whittlesey, who designed the El Tovar Hotel, which sits on the southern rim of Grand Canyon National Park.
The home’s full-width living room with wood-burning fireplace and wall of oversized windows overlooks a diverse collection of neighboring mansions, as well as the Presidio of San Francisco and the bay.
A large formal dining room, complete with stylish wet bar, leads directly into the well-appointed kitchen with its large marble island. In addition to dual dishwashers and dual built-in Miele ovens, the kitchen comes equipped with a SubZero refrigerator, 48-inch PITT cooktop and Miele coffee machine.
The adjoining family sitting room offers access to the terraced south-facing yard.
Up the central stairway you will discover four suites, including the large primary suite with two walk-in closets and a sumptuous bath that captures the picturesque northern view. The pent level is framed by front and rear terraces with stunning and peaceful views and has a large living space with an office and full bathroom.
All told, there are six bedrooms, eight bathrooms and 13 zones of radiant heating. Each bedroom enjoys its own en suite bathroom.
The addition of the top floor consists of a family room and office. The custom floor paint in the family room was done by
North Bay artist Elan Evans.
The staircase includes custom metal railings designed by Tineke Triggs and the 210-bottle wine cellar features a WhisperKool in-ceiling refrigeration unit.
Additional features include a large elevator that services all levels, a spacious two-plus car garage and home exercise room located on the lower level.
The home’s oversized lot allows for a tremendous amount of space and light, and the residence is tailored for comfort and privacy.
Set among other prestigious facades of neighboring homes in the sought-after and quiet enclave of the Presidio Heights neighborhood, the Charles Frederick Whittlesey designed home is steps from the Presidio of San Francisco with its trails, historic homes and uninterrupted access to the San Francisco Bay’s shoreline.
Just steps away from Presidio Heights’ main commercial corridor on Sacramento Street, you can browse the boutiques such as St. Frank and Serena & Lily, dine at world-class restaurants including Spruce and Garibaldis, or catch a movie at the historic Vogue Theatre.
The home’s easy access to the Golden Gate Bridge makes trips to Sonoma and Napa Counties a breeze and the Presidio Golf Club is just a short drive to the west.
