Description:

Ideally situated at the crest of Nob Hill, this exceptional Park-Avenue-style condominium features sweeping downtown skyline views and beautiful finishes and upgrades that blend seamlessly with the apartment’s classic period details. With four bedrooms and two and one-half bathrooms, the unit occupies an entire half-floor. Entering through a long hallway, the space opens to a gracious formal entry with a chic powder room, and a stunning formal living room, complete with a beamed ceiling overhead, a wood-burning fireplace with a refined mantle, and three sets of floor-to-ceiling glass French doors displaying views of the glittering, iconic city skyline with the TransAmerica building and Salesforce Tower, as well as Treasure Island and the Bay. The living room flows naturally to the left into a sunroom/sitting area, with oversized picture windows to admire the view, and to the impressive formal dining room, replete with classic woodworking detail and bordered hardwood flooring. An expansive, eat-in kitchen has been meticulously redone with Carrera marble countertops and center island, and deluxe appliances including a paneled Subzero refrigerator, Wolf gas cooktop, Fisher & Paykel double ovens, and a paneled Miele dishwasher. Gleaming dark green glass tile on the backsplash adds a subtle splash of color to the serene space and there is a lovely breakfast area in front of a bank of windows. Off the kitchen are a closet, storage area, and a large pantry, which houses a full-size washer and dryer and not one but two built-in wine refrigerators. At the back of this fabulous apartment is the primary suite, which includes a wide, spacious bedroom with windows facing tree-lined Powell Street and views of the famed palm-tree-filled courtyard of the Fairmont Hotel. There is room to accommodate a separate sitting area, and the suite includes two walk-in closets in a dressing area, leading to a luxurious bathroom, outfitted with a double vanity, a soaking tub, a separate shower, radiant heated floors, and a glass-enclosed water closet. Further down the hallway are two sizeable bedrooms. One, currently used as a family room or study, offers built-ins and an elegant, beamed ceiling overhead, with windows facing the Fairmont Hotel. The third bedroom is quiet and peaceful, graced with sophisticated molding on the walls that matches the molding along the hallway and entry to bedrooms, and ample closet space. Both bedrooms share an attractive Jack-and-Jill bathroom with a glass-enclosed shower. A small fourth bedroom is excellent for use as a nursery or office and features an ensuite bath with natural stone floor tiles and a claw foot tub with shower attachment. Two parking spaces are included in the building's secure garage and in the Joice Street parking lot, plus a storage room. 840 Powell is a legendary 15-unit Beaux Arts doorman building, located next to the esteemed University Club and just around the corner from landmarks Fairmont Hotel and Mark Hopkins Hotel.
