Austin Klar tours a $26 million Mediterranean mansion in San Francisco's Sea Cliff neighborhood, designed in the 1920s by Earl B. Berts. The nearly 8,000-square-foot home sits on a lot three times larger than typical for SF and commands 180-degree views from Lands End to the Golden Gate Bridge and Marin Headlands. All sale proceeds go to the owner's family foundation for youth mental-health grants.
A Holocaust survivor turned venture capitalist is selling his nearly 8,000-square-foot mansion in Seacliff for $26 million, and you have to see the home to really understand how utterly spectacular it is. Designed in the 1920s by architect Earl B. Berts on the northern edge of San Francisco, this home has perhaps the best views on the block because its structure extends farther out than its neighbors, unobstructed from Lands End to the Marin Headlands, the Golden Gate Bridge, the Presidio, and Baker Beach. Property takes full advantage of the 7,400-square-foot lot it sits on, which is 3 times the size of a standard San Francisco The gated entry leads into a stunning front garden lined with hedges and lavender, and there's also a hot tub. And I can't think of better places to entertain than the back deck off the lower-level living room and bar area, or the enormous main living room, each anchored by those incredible 180-degree views. The Mediterranean-style home has 4 bedrooms, 4 full bathrooms, 2 half bathrooms, 2 kitchens, and multiple balconies to take everything in. And if that weren't spectacular enough, all proceeds from the sale are going directly to supporting grants made by the owner's family foundation to support youth mental health.
