San Francisco’s most expensive home for sale is currently a $45 million dollar compound with stunning views of the San Francisco Bay, the East Bay Bridge, Alcatraz Island, Angel Island, Downtown San Francisco and Coit Tower. The property dubbed Residence 950, is located in the desirable Russian Hill neighborhood and offers buyers the chance to enjoy a spacious approximately 9,500 square foot residence and garden set on over 3/10 of an acre in the heart of San Francisco. The compound, which was brought to life by real estate investment firm Troon Pacific, Inc is said to feature a garden so large that you feel as if you are in a private park with breathtaking ocean views.
Stand-out amenities of the environmentally friendly built home are said to include a two story art gallery, which can transform into a nightclub, a wellness center/spa, and a ‘Bat cave-style garage.’ The main residence is made up of three bedrooms, two guest bedrooms, and six and one half bathrooms. Located on the grounds is also a completely restored historic one bedroom one bath guest cottage with a full spa that includes a steam room, sauna, outdoor shower, and a Jacuzzi with ultraviolet filtration.
Indoor-outdoor entertaining was at the heart of the project’s design. An outdoor entertainment area allows for screening films with a projector on a retractable screen while enjoying the unique ambiance of the garden’s lush secluded grounds, century-old olive trees, lemon trees, and native flowers. A cantilevered infinity pool, surround sound system and luxurious dinning area complete the property’s generous outdoor space which benefit from the full city block sized lot.
“A home like Residence 950 is an impossible find in San Francisco, a virtual oasis in the heart of the city,” said Troon Pacific CEO Gregory Malin, a luxury home creator for nearly 20 years. “We designed 950 Lombard as though it were our own dream home. It was essential for us to provide a home that is truly unique, has the most sought-after amenities and materials, and remains understated from the street and then reveals a rare level of amenity and openness. To maintain Troon’s signature level of quality, we truly applied our mission and core values to this project of design, responsibility and creativity. Responsibility includes both environmental sustainability for the planet, as well as thoughtful wellness amenities for the human soul. Our mission of creativity allows for flexible, future-proof layout so that new owners could make it their dream home and adapt it to their preferences and lifestyle.”
Residence 950’s main level is characterized by a custom-made steel-and-wood floating staircase and extensive natural light, which flows from a skylight down through a glass elevator and shaft. The main level’s living spaces are comprised of a spacious living room with an elegant wet bar, formal dining room, and last but not least a gourmet kitchen with bespoke Boffi cabinetry, Calacatta marble countertops, and Mandarin white limestone floors.
The home’s top level houses the plush master suite with its private foyer, vaulted ceilings, en-suite bathroom, walk-in Boffi closets, and balcony which overlooks the garden. Two additional en-suite bedrooms are located on this level.
Located on the lower level of Residence 950 is an entertainers paradise and a car collector’s dream garage. A two story art gallery is perfectly suited for large scale gathering and is accented by a modern wine wall. To support grand entertaining this level offers a catering prep area. When the gallery is not being used for entertaining it can be converted to a sports court or fitness center. Parallel to the gallery is the four car garage constructed in a Bat Cave style and features an integrated sound system, LED lighting, and an automotive turntable for added convenience. Additionally, the lower level includes a grand parlor, mudroom with dog wash area, and two guest suites.
