This house is basically a love letter for people who don't want to leave San Francisco for the suburbs. The over-century-old 3,500-square-foot home on the border of Lake Street and Seacliff is the perfect compromise between urban and suburban and has quintessential San Francisco bones on the outside with all the modern touches buyers want on the inside. Radiant heating on every floor with separate temperature controls on each level, Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, floor-to-ceiling folding doors providing direct access to the beautifully manicured yard, an outdoor kitchen that take perfect advantage of the over 3,000 square foot lot and an observation deck on the roof with dead-on views of the Presidio and Golden Gate Bridge. You buy this house because you want the more laid-back lifestyle afforded by the suburbs, like beach access and quiet tree-lined streets, without giving up proximity to the incredible food, shopping, and nightlife the city has to offer. The home recently hit the market for just under $5.9 million, and I'll bet it goes for more than that.
