This unique, townhouse style home occupies the top two floors of a 4 unit building constructed in 1894 by Robert Dickie Cranston, a prominent builder in the Haight-Ashbury district at the time and was featured in the second edition of The Painted Ladies books. The home encompasses 1799 sq. ft. (per tax records) on two floors of living space, including 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths. Enhanced by east and west light-filled exposures, dramatic Victorian era volumes, well-preserved period details and pristine softwood floors, the living spaces are well proportioned for daily living and for entertaining. The main living level features a gracious light-filled double parlor with gas FP, well-suited for entertaining. There is a half bath and generous FDR with second gas FP leading to the kitchen and breakfast area. The kitchen has been tastefully remodeled to complement the period architecture and has a laundry closet. A gracious stairway, graced by a beautifully restored Victorian era balustrade and colorful period skylight, provides the connection to the upper bedroom level which accommodates three bedrooms (one en-suite) and two beautifully remodeled full baths. There is a private deeded deck off the rear 3rd bedroom. The sellers currently have leased parking for this home across the street. Located on the corner of Cole and Page Street, the property is a walker's paradise with easy access to a diversity of shops and restaurants in the Haight, Cole Valley and the exciting NOPA district. Easy access to the Panhandle, one block away, also makes this a wonderful place to enjoy world class museums and all of the other amenities of Golden Gate Park.
