Attic Master Suite with Kitchenette

It's much more than a single room, a little less than a whole house. Welcome to the Pierce Street Suite, which occupies the entire top-floor attic of a 1897 Queen Anne Victorian, right in the heart of San Francisco's Lower Haight. The house was built just a few years after street car service came to Haight Street. The neighborhood was considered "the country"; the street car service opened it up to "city" residents.

Neighborhood overview: The Attic Suite is located in the Lower Haight neighborhood of SF. It’s a block and a half from Duboce Park (where the N Muni stops), two blocks from the Painted Ladies (where everyone stops), and a half block from Haight street (where the 6 and 7 busses stop).
Restaurants and coffee shops abound. Within two blocks you can find just about any restaurant you could wish for.

About the host: I'm an enthusiastic bicyclist who worked  as a family lawyer to keep myself in bike socks.  Born in San Francisco, grew up near Stanford University, and moved around a lot before I got back to San Francisco in 1976. I've raised two children in this house and they've always claimed they grew up in the best neighborhood in San Francisco. 

Since both my children live elsewhere (but have left their hearts in San Francisco), I'm now occupying this 4-story Victorian on my own, though there are often friends and relatives visiting who stay in the main part of the house.  . I love meeting new people, but can assure you that you'll have plenty of privacy, as the Attic Suite is on the top floor and is quite separate from the main house. 

I travel often to Italy to visit my daughter  and granddaughter who is now 7. A long, long time ago, I spent two years living and teaching in Africa.  

This is a wonderful city and a dynamic, friendly neighborhood that I feel fortunate to live in and share.
