Thank you for sharing a beautiful condo that gives you a gorgeous vintage feel. It is a large size and arranged with elegance! I hope you had a client who loved this property.😊
Great tour! I live a few blocks away and this is my favorite of many charming buildings in the neighborhood. So fun to see inside and imagine the living experience. It truly is a gem!
Hi @alisons9740. It's funny how many neighbors came by this property when it was on the market; they all said that they always loved the exterior of the building and wondered what it was like on the inside. Thanks for your comment!
Hi Tony really appreciate the video, and thank you for adding subtitles to the video, I can't really hear from my left ear, and the subtitles are helpful
Hi @helgahaa thanks for commenting! I agree; the building is beautiful. I had so many people come to the open houses because they said they always loved the building and wanted to see what it looked like.
Love this apartment. Go past it all the time on the bus. The only thing I would change is the bathroom. That tile is hideous. The shallow cupboard in the kitchen probably once held a pull-down ironing board. I still have one in my apartment. Too bad there's no elevator, which is probably why the price isn't higher. By the way, the water is more than "a few blocks away" but it's a quick trip by bus or cable car.
@kirahastings9900 - thanks for commenting! Many people came to see this unit when it was on the market, because they always admired the building’s exterior. I agree about the cupboard and yes, the tile seems out of place for this aesthetic.
I live in NYC. This apartment resembles many pre-war NYC apartments. It is rare to find architecture and original cabinetry. If this is a co-op/condo, what restrictions/limitations are there? During the tour, I was renovating in my head. In NY, everything must be co-op/condo board approved to make sure you are not changing the structure of the building.
Hi @jkhegarty857 - thanks for your comment. You’re right, this is a condo. Similar to in NY, any modifications to the structure must be approved by the HOA. Every HOA is different, with some more amenable to changes than others. This unit is a good example of this; it may be hard to tell from the video, but it appeared that the bathroom had another door that led to the hallway, which was at some point sealed off. There’s another unit in this building that remodeled the large hallway closet into a half bath as well.
@tonyknott17 Hi Tony!! 👋 Thank you very much for your updates and info. In regards to the bathroom with a hallway entrance & not the bedroom, that was EXACTLY the reno I was visualizing. Also, the kitchen layout is a little small. I was visualizing that little nook/pantry by extending it into more of the kitchen layout. But then again, there goes that unique "original" cabinetry that offers so much charm. Just dreaming. I, live in a prewar co-op. Reno'd my kitchen & BR. Broke my heart to tear away the original charm, but the rooms are updated & offer a fresh look. All the best!! 😊
I want an equivalent pied-a-terre in Paris that will remind me of San Francisco!! I want a view of Notre Dame or Sacre Coeur that will remind me of either the old or new St. Mary's Cathedrals! ;-) Really a nice space but a little tight in some of the rooms. How do they move a new fridge or piano into the 5th floor?
@mylesgarcia4625 - thanks for your comment and what a great perspective! You’re right, this space isn’t huge. The hallways and stairwell are quite wide, however, so you could most likely get a refrigerator up there. A piano is a different story though…
@Cletus_the_Elder thanks for your comment. I agree; such a lovely property. It ended up selling at $1,293,000, which was about 2% below the list price.
Hi @jlasf. You're right, I should have taken more exterior shots of this building, as many people comment on it, and it is beautiful. The property probably would have sold much sooner if there was an elevator. Thanks for commenting!
Hi @jessiejoseph1093. Thanks for commenting. For those walk-through closets in small spaces, it's common for them to be open like this property. Someone could conceivably install sliding doors in there if they were so inclined.
Stunningly beautiful, but Grace Cathedral's bells toll every hour on the hour. I can't imagine the bedroom being right across the street and trying to get some sleep.
Bells only ring from 9am-6pm. Most people wouldn’t be home, let alone sleeping. I live nearby and enjoy the sound of the cable car, carillon, and ship fog horns at night. It’s part of the “only in SF” charm and why I moved here, but it’s not for everyone.
Hi @pwp8737 - Grace Cathedral bells don't go all night; I believe the ring from 9am-6pm. I used to live a block away on California St. and what you notice more often at night when it's quiet is the cable car. However, it soon becomes "background" noise IMO, and actually adds to the charm of living on Nob Hill. Thanks for commenting!
@dolorescordell129 - thanks for your comment. Unfortunately, there’s not an elevator in this building. That is the one drawback of this property. If there’s something you’re looking for specifically, feel free to reach out. I’d be happy to help! 805-451-3262.
Hi @2maw1wrimke - this property is on the very top of Nob Hill. Although there’s certainly issues with homelessness and crime in parts of San Francisco, this neighborhood is not one of them.
….why did the Owner move out would be my question? It’s lovely, but the city isn’t lovely anymore. I really feel it’s our Johannesburg, SA after Aparthied. It’s an unlivable city with crime everywhere. I don’t SF coming back. ………but you’re not in Europe, and Europe isn’t the picture of tranquility either….
@Belladvid1000, thanks for your comment. The owners are moving to Marin (just across the Golden Gate Bridge), as they've outgrown the space. I would disagree about San Francisco, however. I hear this type of comment often, and frankly much of it is driven by the mass media. San Francisco certainly has its issues, but nothing like the crime-infested wasteland that it's been unfairly portrayed as. I've been to Johannesburg and Cape Town, SA - following Apartheid - and I can tell you it's absolutely nothing like that.
I live in San Francisco and have for 50 years. The downtown Union Square area has been ravaged and the media focuses their attention on that area of the city. The neighborhoods are intact and vibrant. I happened upon this open house by accident. I parked and was walking to the Fairmont for lunch. This condo is to die for. If I were younger I would not hesitant a second to buy this property. Personally, I think it is underpriced. It is spacious, it is elegant, the view is fabulous, and it does have a Parisian vibe, which I love.
@user-xp2yx5mx7p - thanks for commenting. This building is almost 125 years old. The way people lived then is so different compared to now. And you're right, Edwardian and Victorian styles don't appeal to everyone. If you're looking for a different style and space, feel free to reach out and I'd be happy to try to help.
Love the woodwork
Yes, the craftsmanship in this home is timeless
Beautiful love the windows
Windows are one of my favorites features of this home; really feels like you’re in a pied-à-terre in Paris
This is a very spacious one bedroom! So beautiful and I love that it has so many original architectural features.
Thanks so much for commenting! I agree, it’s beautiful and the architectural details make it very special 😀
Beautiful small & cozy. Really nicely done. ❤❤
@conniepleasantnails - Thanks, I thought it was cozy too!

@@tonyknott17 I envy them!
I am a modern architecture fan but this apartment is beautiful, sophisticated and comfortable
Agreed; it's one of the most unique units I've seen in San Francisco. Thanks for commenting!

I agree; the bathroom tile was something I really liked as well!
It’s nice. I like it & if I could I’d love in & be happy about it.

Stunning condo and enviable location. According to the listing though the place sold for the same $ in 2017. Weird.
@mikehill3728 - thanks for commenting. This property sold in 2017 for $1,380,000 and sold in 2023 for $1,293,000 (2% below the list price).

can only imagine how lovely life would be like living in this gorgeous apt. Please, let me know when the price drops to $139K
@anthonydavid5121 - thanks for commenting! Yes, it's a truly lovely place.
Great apartment. You should show exterior of building: it’s one of the most attractive facades. But without elevator, should be $1k per sq. ft.
Hi @jlasf. You're right, I should have taken more exterior shots of this building, as many people comment on it, and it is beautiful. The property probably would have sold much sooner if there was an elevator. Thanks for commenting!
For 1.3 mil you should get closet doors.

Thanks and great area. Music may be a bit OTT?
@scottgregory885, thanks for your comment, and noted about the music! I'll have to go back and rewatch it. 👍
@@tonyknott17 thank you for taking no offence with this! Great channel :)
Thanks @scottgregory885! I appreciate it as well as the feedback - can only help me improve the channel!
That jazz is fantastic! @@tonyknott17django reinhardt? anyway, love it!
@sleepycalico -Thank you! Not Django Reinhardt; just stock music, but it does sound similar!
What floor is it on and is there an elevator?
Hi @roystrickland3363 - thanks for your comment. This property is on the third floor and there’s no elevator in the building.
Beautiful, elegant, romantic. My only question is whether there is an elevator?

Property taxes?
@minavanderleest9493 - thanks for your comment. At the list price, property taxes would be approximately $9,380.
no walk-in shower !!!!!!!!
Yep...that would be a nice feature.
Very beautiful , lots of room 4 a one bedroom. .....$1.3 for 1088 sq. ft. though......plus HOA @$764 a mo. ...........lol, only in S.F.
Thanks for commenting; yes San Francisco has always been in the pricier side, especially for unique properties like this one.
My HOA is $1,675 a month.
I've seen some over $2K
You got to be kidding me??? Just a regular old apartment.
Thanks for commenting! I think that’s subjective though 😀
what a shitty place to put the shower head, otherwise nice spot
Hi @zerohelix87, thanks for commenting; yes nice catch; not idea place for the shower head.
I know this area, there's a lot of violent homeless people around here and the crime is getting out of control
Hi @2maw1wrimke - this property is on the very top of Nob Hill. Although there’s certainly issues with homelessness and crime in parts of San Francisco, this neighborhood is not one of them.
Exactly, not a safe area.
I am a 78 year old woman and I walk around this neighborhood all the time and I feel very safe and I have never had a problem.
@skeeterm2162 - this area is completely safe. There are areas of San Francisco I’d advise people to avoid, but not here.
@GloriaJudd66 - agreed. Nice to have a local’s perspective, thank you!
