Entirely rebuilt, this refined, five-level home combines classic San Francisco detailing with an all-new, expanded interior and the latest systems.

Extensive reengineering was required to stabilize the property, requiring us to excavate under the structure, pour a new foundation and perform a full seismic upgrade with Preprufe waterproofing system and 2-story retaining wall. With the zero lot line conditions, protecting the neighboring Victorian was critical as it is the oldest home in Pacific Heights.
