Multiple indoor/outdoor living vignettes and the surrounding enchanting gardens complement the city's Mediterranean climate, providing both formal and casual entertaining opportunities for year round gatherings. This is one of San Francisco's most remarkable estate properties designed by celebrated architect, Earle B.
