This is the kind of Pacific Heights home buyers wait years for, a 5,000-square-foot Victorian on a corner lot built in the 1880s and updated to contemporary standards without sacrificing the nearly 150-year-old character and charm. Immediately entering the home, you're enveloped in its scale, 11.5 to 12-foot ceilings throughout the two main levels outfitted with some of the most intricate millwork and fireplace decoration you can find in single-family homes these days, and one of the best preserved examples of stained glass anchoring the grand stair. The 6-bedroom home was renovated about 20 years ago, but still feels timeless and move-in ready. Ready, and the best part of it all might be its location— 2 blocks to Alta Plaza Park, 3 blocks to Fillmore Street, and 1 block to Divisadero and Sacramento Streets, all some of the best amenities Pacific Heights has to offer. The home recently hit the market for $6 million, and wouldn't be surprised if someone snatches it up for more.
