‘Comfort, class’ atop Russian Hill
Rebuilt trilevel contemporary has stunning views
Even in a city bursting with postcard views, Russian Hill stands out. The bay, skyline and landmarks like Alcatraz and Fisherman’s Wharf play prominent roles in the world-famous landscape.
All that looks so much better from the decadence that is 740 Bay St., a newly listed fourbedroom set between Ghirardelli Square and North Beach.
“Clean lines seamlessly orchestrate space, light and views,” said Rachel Swann of Vanguard Properties, who is listing the luxury home for $5.488 million. “The result balances comfort, class and polished sophistication.”
Virtually every room affords a landmark view through dualpane Marvin windows. Coit Tower, the Bay Bridge, the Marin Headlands and other nearby landmarks ensure guests and residents always have something to see. Of course, having something to do is also important, and 740 Bay St. accommodates plenty of interests.
Two offices and a family room provide versatile spaces calling for personalization. In total, the residence offers four bedrooms and several bonus rooms.
The rebuilt home’s sleek appointments and high-tech inclusions offer plenty more than simple vanity. Engineered radiant floor heats the home as Nuheat warms the bathrooms.
A richly appointed kitchen acts as an array of international influences. German and Italian designs appear as faucets, glass tile backsplashes and high-end appliances. Quartz counters and a center island offer ample room to work beside custom cabinetry with bookmatched wood paneling.
A location’s influence on real estate can’t be understated, and Swann has one more reason to be optimistic about 740 Bay St.
“It’s a half-block from the new 4.5-acre mega park that was recently approved on Bay Street,” she said. “This will be the city’s most luxurious, exciting park.”
