This is an amazing find! These properties on the Filbert Steps--surrounded by old shade trees, gardens, and quaint homes--are unique and beautiful. A well-kept secret in SF, just to walk these garden steps straight to Coit Tower is worth the time (and effort!) But to stay in one of these rare homes is priceless. The home was comfortable and stylish, including a very upgraded kitchen with a high end Viking gas stove. The rooms were quiet and clean. And the view was unbeatable!--a large portion of the GG Recreation Area and the full Bay Bridge from the large living room windows. A similar view from the large bedroom downstairs. You can watch the ships cruise in and out of the Bay all day and night. A cruise ship also pulled up and parked right in front of our window (the Piers are all right in front of you). There's a spa bathtub (meant for one) with a nice view, in an upgraded master bath. The whole top floor gets incredible morning light. It is also worth noting how difficult it is to find a nice place to stay in North Beach--and this house is a five minute walk over the hill from everything in that area. It's also close to the Ferry Building, Pier 39, and Financial District. I was worried that parking would be an issue, but it turned out to be a breeze, actually. I was concerned about the stairs, but her place is pretty close to a street (just a few steps up). I stayed with my two teenagers and they absolutely loved it! I would definitely recommend and will return to Henna's place!! (In the afternoons, lookout for the 100+ Macau's that live in the Filbert trees. They've been living wild in SF for decades and there used to be just a few of them. So cool!)
