Inspiration lives here! Originally built as a single-family home and thoughtfully evolved over time, this turn-of-the-century two-unit residence has been used as an art lab, a multi-use compound, and a private home. Offering exceptional flexibility with three-unit potential, indoor-outdoor living, and meticulous stewardship, this inventive property is equally suited to sophisticated city living and easy-going family life. Well-located in a vibrant, central part of the Mission District, the quintessential Victorian architecture has been artfully reimagined with an emphasis on aesthetic joy, city convenience, and luxurious comfort. Two light-filled living levels are connected by the original interior staircase and feature soaring ceilings, oversized windows, and warm hardwood floors. On the main level, an impressive double parlor with a handsome formal dining room create an elegant setting for all sorts of entertaining. Upstairs, a flexible layout with two bedrooms plus bespoke office invites industry and repose. Flooded with natural light, each level has its own kitchen and access to the decks and professionally landscaped garden. At the garden level is a studio guest suite which evokes the efficiency and craftsmanship of a modern ship's cabin and includes a full kitchen and bath, well-appointed and functional. The garden features lush plantings, easy care hardscaping, permeable pavers, and a sheltered outdoor living room. Throughout the home, custom storage, beautiful millwork, artful lighting, and luxe baths with claw footed tubs reflect a commitment to quality and design. A one-car garage and storage room complete this visionary home. Just moments from Mission Dolores Park, the world-class dining and shopping of the Valencia Street corridor, the Thursday Mission Farmers Market, Mission Branch Library, Mission Pool, and numerous schools. The location offers exceptional walkability and access to some of the city's finest FUN amenities. A truly one-of-a-kind original, this home will make you smile!
