This grand Gothic Tudor is a one of a kind exceptional property perched on the slope of Russian Hill. It is an awesome property with commanding views of Fisherman’s Wharf, the Bay, the Golden Gate Bridge, and Angel Island. The home at one time was owned by the renowned sculptor Haig Patigan whose dramatic sculpture of Abe Lincoln can be seen in front of San Francisco’s City Hall. This historic home with beautiful Tudor style façade and numerous Gothic architectural accents was the DIFFA showcase home in 1989.
MAIN LEVEL: The impressive Gothic style stone arch entrance and detailed wrought iron gate leads to the formal interior entrance. There you are met not only by the captivating interior but the glorious views of Alcatraz, the Bay, the Golden Gate Bridge and Angel Island! All rooms facing north benefit from this truly San Francisco vista.
 To the left of the entry is the library which is adorned by beautiful lead glass windows, an ornate faux-ivoire mantelpiece with Roman scenes and bookshelves that frame the wood-burning fireplace. Across the entry hall is the exquisite formal dining room which features dark wood panel wainscoting, rich dark wood floors and glorious glass stain windows. The burgundy walls with dark stained paneling and woodwork accent the décor of this already magnificent room. Equally impressive is the spacious and grand formal living room. Gothic wall paneling, full picture frame views, and beamed ceilings add to the magnificence of the room. The massive mantel frames the large wood-burning fireplace. An interesting feature is the 1629 shield attached to the interior of the fireplace.
 The kitchen is remodeled and features two stoves, a six-burner gas Viking stove, a multi-use GE electric cooktop, two separate sinks, Snaidero cabinets, Corian countertops and new flooring. A powder room is located off the foyer.
 SECOND FLOOR: A grand staircase with carved Gothic features highlights the tall windows at the top of the landing where more breathtaking views of the bay are showcased. The master bedroom suite offers sweeping views to the North and West, including Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz and the Marin headlands. The suite consists of an unique faux-bois gentleman’s dressing room opening to his private full bath, while the lady’s dressing room features every possible amenity from raw silk and cedar lined drawers to hand-crafted birch cabinets, separate walk-in shoe pantry, window seat, and marble vanity counter. Her dressing room leads to a separate full bath. An adjoining room with built-in shelves and cabinets is a perfect study, but can be a master sitting room as well. There is a second bedroom suite on this level which boasts the same bay and Alcatraz views and is serviced by an attached bath with charcoal slate floor. For convenience, there is a compact wet-bar and refrigerator on this level.
THIRD LEVEL: There are two very good size bedroom suites on this top level, each with its attached full bath. Both of these bedrooms have very interesting ceiling lines and wonderful bay views.
LOWER LEVEL: A sunken media/family room is huge in size and offers unlimited home entertainment possibilities. From here, there is easy access to the lovely manicured garden. Two additional bedrooms, a full bath and a wine cellar complete this level.
MISCELLANOUS: The two-car tandem garage is conveniently situated off the kitchen. Side by side laundry machines and extra shelves are also located in the garage. NOTE: Adjacent lot owned by the Seller is not included in sales price, but could be purchased for $1,500,000.
