Considered one of the most beautiful estates in San Francisco, The Hellman Heller Mansion, once the temporary offices of Wells Fargo Bank after the 1906 earthquake, is not only distinguished for its place in history but also for its grand design and impeccable modern updates. The residence has been host to international leaders and state receptions, but projects the warmth, personality, and charm desired in a private residence. Ideally located in prominent Pacific Heights, this Classical Revival estate, designed circa 1902 by architect Julius E. Krafft, has been thoughtfully restored while maintaining the architects original masterpiece. Occupying four impressive levels, all accessible by an elevator, this seven bedroom, seven full and three half bath, home is a rare jewel. An arched hand-forged wrought-iron and etched glass front door leads to the grand reception foyer, salon, formal living and dining rooms. The strength and determination of the four-story brick faade transitions to an elegantly ornate warm Cuban Mahogany wood paneled interior upon entering the main level reception. The symmetrical design of the architectural details, striking herringbone pattern wood floors and distinctive box beamed ceilings, capture the the attention of every visitor. The bayside dining room features a stunning crystal chandelier, hand painted murals and dedicated catering kitchen. Three arched doors lead to a balustrade terrace with sweeping views of Alcatraz, Angel Island and Marin. A double curved grand staircase leads to the family areas of the residence. The master suite occupies the entire South wing and includes his and hers bathrooms, plus a combination sitting and dressing room--a true luxury with mirrored wardrobes, walk in closet and storage for every accessory. The third level features a large media room in addition to four bedrooms.The main kitchen, located on the lower level, features granite counter tops with tumbled marble back splash and large center island. Professional appliances include a La Cornue range, Sub Zero built-in refrigerator and freezer, twin Meile dishwashers and wall oven. The Family Room is located off the kitchen, features beautiful built-in Birds Eye Maple cabinetry and opens to an outdoor terrace. An Au-pair suite is tucked away off the kitchen area. The harmony of contemporary comforts and period details make the Hellman-Heller Mansion truly exceptional.
