Developed in 1998 by John Willis and designed by architect Ed McEachron in tribute to the neighboring structures by Julia Morgan and Joseph Esherick - the shingled Russian Hill Summit atop the cul-de-sac of the bucolic 1000 block of Vallejo remains one of the most sought-after addresses in San Francisco. Occupying the center townhouse position in a row of six, the 2,425 sq. ft. luxury penthouse at 1041 Vallejo radiates stunning architectural detail with newly renovated features. The sizable Upper Level - with its oversized windows, French doors and skylight - unites a generous eat-in kitchen with SubZero & Wolf appliances, dining area, and living room with a large fireplace under a soaring, 15-ft high cathedral ceiling. Nearly 500 sq.ft. of north- and south-facing terraces expand living and dining options outdoors - all accented by exhilarating views of the Golden Gate, Coit Tower, Bay Bridge, and Downtown. A primary suite with a stately fireplace, oversized bathroom, and dual closets anchors the Bedroom Level, complemented by two guest bedrooms (one with a view balcony) sharing a bathroom. A laundry room completes this level. Below the Entry Level is a spacious garage, offering secure, two-car tandem parking and extensive, secured storage cabinetry and rooms. An elevator seamlessly connects the Garage & Bedroom Levels. Monthly fees include an attended garage, the utilities of gas, water & refuse collection, professional management, building insurance, grounds maintenance and contribution to reserves. The ultimate in privacy, this luxury penthouse at the Russian Hill Summit is located in one of San Francisco's most sought-after enclaves, moments from acclaimed dining on Hyde & Polk Streets, neighborhood cafs, parks, and San Francisco's famed waterfront.
