117 Laidley Street

Perched on the most coveted block of Laidley Street, this spectacular mid-century home has been skillfully remodeled and expanded to take full advantage of its stellar location and panoramic views. Meticulous stewardship and creative design has transformed this dwelling into an architectural gem, now encompassing three floors of living space, each enhanced by generous decks and walls of glass that frame views of the city, bay and sky.

The main level floor plan has been structurally opened to bring light into the core of the home with a dramatic stairwell beautifully articulated with fine ironwork railings, venetian plaster wall finishes, and pristine quarter-sawn oak flooring. The main living space boasts dramatic panoramic views of San Francisco, the bay, and the surrounding skyline. A gas fireplace flanked by tasteful modern built-ins brings warmth to the space and a walk-out deck accessed through floor-to-ceiling windows creates a seamless connection to the surrounding cityscape. A beautifully remodeled kitchen with state-of-the-art appliances also enjoys a wonderful vista to the city and bay. Two bedrooms and a full bath complete the main living level.

At the middle floor, also the entry level, the city outlooks are reserved for the exclusive use of the primary bedroom suite. This over-sized bedroom provides a private retreat with plenty of room to relax inside or on the spacious adjoining deck. The suite is enhanced by a thoughtfully designed walk-in closet and a primary bath outfitted with a nicely scaled walk-in shower clad with exquisite tilework and custom fixtures. The central stairway also provides a convenient direct connection to a large one car garage with plenty of room for extra built-in storage and laundry. At the lowest level, an additional room with en-suite bath, enjoys a more intimate connection to the backyard landscape along with its own spacious deck. This room works as a flex space suitable for working at home, entertainment or for guests. One full wall is beautifully detailed with built-in casework that accommodates two separate desk areas, and a central TV screen creates a focus for gatherings. A built-in sleeping nook provides a perfect spot for naps or even an overnight guest. Surrounded by lush vegetation, the deck at this level still enjoys glimpses of the surrounding cityscape and provides access to a professionally landscaped garden oasis defined by stone walls and mature plantings, a magical spot to contemplate and rejuvenate in the privacy of your own yard.
