2570 Vallejo Street

Move-in ready Pacific Heights home with an intuitive floorplan and fabulous top floor Bay views! This four-level residence was renovated down to the studs in 2008 and features contemporary fixtures and finishes throughout and modern systems including seismic upgrades. There are four bedrooms and four and one-half bathrooms, plus an open kitchen/dining room with a walk-out deck, a family room on the lower level, a pretty garden, and one-car parking.

Up a flight of entry stairs surrounded by mature hedges for privacy, a gracious entry leads to a bright living room, illuminated with sunlight from south and east-facing oversized windows and anchored by a stately wood-burning fireplace with a gas starter surrounded by an impressive wood-carved mantle. Off the living room is a powder room with a contemporary design. Through the elegant foyer with a coat closet and gleaming hardwood floors is a sprawling kitchen/dining room with a dining area, open gourmet kitchen, and floor-to-ceiling glass French doors out to a walk-out deck, allowing for a seamless indoor-outdoor experience. The chef’s kitchen is equipped with a built-in pantry closet, sumptuous wood cabinetry, limestone and Silestone countertops, a glass and stone backsplash, and a central island with an overhang for informal dining.  Deluxe appliances include Subzero fridge, Wolf six burner range and hood overhead, two sinks, Dacor microwave and built-in oven, U-Line wine refrigerator and Miele dishwasher. The dining area is wonderful for entertaining with built-in speakers overhead and ample room for a sizeable table, looking out to the deck. The deck is an ideal spot for grilling and relaxing, and overlooks the lush garden.

Up the main staircase are three lovely bedrooms and two bathrooms. The largest bedroom at the back is spacious and offers access to an attached deck overlooking the garden, double closets, and windows displaying peaceful treetop outlooks. This bedroom serves as a terrific alternative primary suite. The ensuite bathroom is outfitted with a stylish double vanity and a glass-enclosed shower. Off the hallway is a linen closet and a Bosch washer/dryer, and leads to the second bedroom, showcasing delightful city views to the east and sunny south-facing windows. An attractive bathroom ensuite has a glass-enclosed shower over a tub and a quartz-topped vanity.  The third bedroom is smaller in size, with access to the back deck and a closet, and would be ideal for an office or nursery.

On the top level is a gorgeous primary suite/pentroom, presenting floor-to-ceiling windows facing beautiful views of the waters of the San Francisco Bay, and Alcatraz. A striking wood-burning fireplace in the bedroom is flanked by built-in closets on either side, and a glass door leads to an incredible walk-out roofdeck, drenched in southern sunlight and enhanced by east-facing city views. Off the bedroom is a luxurious bathroom, furnished with a double vanity, a sleek, extra-large glass-enclosed rain shower, and a window displaying treetop views.

The lower level houses an expansive family room, appointed with floor-to-ceiling French glass doors out to the garden, and a handsome wet bar for entertaining. A separate guest bedroom also has French doors to the garden and a full bathroom with a glass-enclosed shower. Around the corner is a laundry room with a side-by-side washer and dryer and storage space, and an adjoining room with cabinets, a folding counter, and a sink. The garden includes a tiled area for seating and a lush back lawn surrounded by flowers and mature trees. Built-in sound system with speakers throughout the house, a storage closet, and a one-car garage complete the picture. 

This elegant home checks all the boxes! Located in the exclusive Pacific Heights neighborhood, it is just a short walk to the shops and dining of Union and Fillmore Streets, excellent schools, and the rolling hills of Alta Plaza Park.
