This gem is for someone who wants a cute, quiet, country-like getaway pad in the heart of San FranciscoÂs best neighborhood.
This totally charming original SF Victorian Cottage was built in the 1870's. It has a very rustic country cottage, artistic feeling. The interior walls are the original antique plaster and have been kept in their original state which after 140 years retain a naturally formed antique patina with numerous individual cracks and some artistically exposed lath. The walls resemble the looks of an old rustic European cottage. In the past, the house has been requested to be used as a photo location by a country antique magazine and a well-known furniture/home accessory chain. It is a settled home and has withstood every major earthquake recorded in S.F since the 1870Âs..
Wilmot Street is an uncharacteristically quiet alley right off of Fillmore Street. It is particularly peaceful because this is a freestanding single family home with nobody living directly above or below you and with no shared side walls. Neighbors are friendly and tend to keep an eye out for each other. This neighborhood is considered one of the top areas of the city to live. The neighborhood features some of the best dining, cafes, shopping, theaters & music in S.F. (The Grove, The Elite Café, SPQR, Florio, PeetÂs Coffee, Bittersweet Chocolate Café, Shu Uemura, Benefit, Mac, Aveda, Keils, DePietro Todd, Betsy Johnson, Margaret OÂLeary, Marc Jacobs, Ralph Lauren, The Fillmore Theater, Robert RedfordÂs Sundance Film Festival Complex, John Lee HookerÂs Boom Boom Room, RasselaÂs Jazz club and YoshiÂs Jazz club). In addition, the neighborhood is home to San FranciscoÂs most authentic French pastry shops ÂDelangheÂ.
The home has two bedrooms with a dressing room off the Master bedroom. The master bedroom has a king bed and the second small room has a queen bed. The home is about 1000sq ft. and the yard is an additional 250sq. ft
The cottage is fully furnished and equipped for housekeeping. Supplies include dishes, utensils, pots, pans, pillows, blankets, sheets and towels and that prime vacation necessity a barbecue.
There is direct access to a protected & private brick patio area with a four person outdoor table and an outdoor sitting couch. The back area is nicely ornate with potted cymbidiums and two sprawling kiwi vines.
A charming characteristic of the home is itÂs detailed antique cast-iron gas stove which is perfect for people who love everything about the character of a wood stove but donÂt like to bother with wood. The stove gives the warmth and comfort you need with the ease and clean-burning convenience of gas.
Included with the cottage comes a secure enclosed parking space in an offsite garage at the corner of Sutter and Steiner. Additionally, there are three ÂZip cars that are parked two houses down on Wilmot Street. There are also City Share cars available across from the nearby Mollie Stones grocery store which is two blocks away. PLEASE NOTE that 70 Wilmot Street and the Fillmore District is very centrally located within the city. Because of all the convenient forms of transportation such as BART (Bay Area Rapid Transport), ÂZip cars, City Share cars, buses, taxies, limousines and airport shuttles we recommend that visitors take advantage of one of the many alternative forms of transportation for which San Francisco is so well known. Enjoy the freedom of not having to deal with the hassles of accidents, tickets, parking and road rage. Not only will you save money but best of all youÂll join San FranciscanÂs in their movement to being considered on the cutting edge of being one of the Âcleanest air cities in the world. If you are the Âhunker-down type here to write your novel or to nest in this cozy cottage, youÂll find that within the Fillmore Street community, all your needs and more are in walking distance.
