The intersection of Polk and Pine has brought spring to life with the arrival of The Austin, a 12-story building starring 100 luxury condominiums.
M arch marks the launch of sales for The Austin, a 12-story building starring 100 luxury condominiums at the corner of Pine and Polk Streets.
From San Francisco-based Pacific Eagle, The Austin features an array of studio, one- and two-bedrooms ranging from the mid-$600,000s to over $1,500,000. The homes feature clean lines, natural materials, and are bathed in natural light from floor-to-ceiling windows that capture some of the best views North and East over Angel Island, Russian and Nob Hills. Wide-plank white oak hardwood floors provide a sense of warmth. Energy-efficient touches such as Nest thermostats allow you to precisely control the central heat and air conditioning so you can stay comfortable whether you’re working, sleeping, or relaxing.
The residences are outfitted in high-end modern finishes. Kitchens feature Miele gas ovens and cooktops, quartz countertops, Hansgrohe fixtures, and built-in Bosch dishwashers. Open layouts with integrated storage and custom cabinetry by local cabinetmaker Sozo Studio, the kitchen was made for entertaining and is flexible to fade into the background when not in use.
The Austin encourages you to make full use of the building and the neighborhood around it. Take your work to the lobby lounge or the landscaped courtyard. The front desk can alert you when your lunch date arrives. For business meetings or pre-dinner cocktails, head to the roof deck, where you’ll find plenty of seating around the fireplaces. Take the dog for a walk up to Lafayette Park and then rinse them off in the onsite pet spa before heading home.
When it’s time to explore, grab your bike from the bicycle storage in the lobby or the basement. Before long, you can be in Golden Gate Park or powering through the trees into the Presidio. On foot, you have San Francisco’s most vibrant neighborhoods right outside your front door. Sip a drink at Harper & Rye, try on some new duds at Marine Layer, or enjoy an exquisite meal at Lord Stanley. Between Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s, Belcampo Meat Co., and nearby Farmer’s Markets, you will never go hungry.
The Austin was crafted and built by a talented and seasoned team of San Francisco artisans and experts. With architecture by BDE, interior design by Edmonds + Lee and construction by Swinerton Builders, The Austin is sure to join the other architectural landmarks in this storied neighborhood.
