The secluded master suite boasts attractive views, a flat screen, grand fireplace, spacious closet, and in-suite washer/dryer. And, the master bath is like a spa, with steam shower, sunken tub ready for bath salts, and a calming natural stone décor. nnThere are multiple uses for the four additional private bedrooms. Each of the bedrooms has an outdoor space plus considerable closet space. There are three bedrooms and two baths on one level and an additional bedroom suite adjacent the laundry/work-room with independent access from the rear of the property – perfect for a care taker or guest quarters.
Wilke Colter, a San Francisco attorney and his family, purchased 250 Santa Paula from McSweeney, and then eventually left it vacant for 25 years. Now it has been lovingly restored into an engineering masterpiece and an inviting and luxurious home. The famed Olmsted Brothers laid out the curvilinear street plan for this historic “residence park” and there are strict restoration guidelines that preserve the neighborhood’s coveted qualities. Thanks to careful stewardship of these ideals many original pieces of the home are intact – including the front facade, the dark beam over the window in the great room, and the distinctive wood windows.
Walking in the front door of this abode, the re-claimed, distressed maple floor feels sturdy under your feet and you’ve arrived, gratefully, at home — where every comfort is offered. Presenting a grand living room centered on a majestic fireplace wrapped with views of San Francisco’s ocean side hills and lush green valley inspires magnificent events. Coupled with a beautiful formal dining area and powder room, the space is worthy of elegant meals and lively fundraisers for your favorite charity.

This work of art was originally designed by Angus McSweeney, a prominent San Francisco architect who is credited with the design of several residential high-rises in Russian Hill, Nob Hill, and Pacific Heights; as well as his collaboration with several other accomplished architects on the building of St. Mary's Cathedral on Gough. McSweeney and his bride Beryl moved into the home after it was built in 1925.
