Situated at the top of Russian Hill, The Royal Towers at 1750 Taylor is one of the City's finest and most highly sought after buildings. This stunningly tasteful, newly renovated residence enjoys breathtaking 300 degree views overlooking the Bay from the Golden Gate Bridge to the Marin Headlands, Aquatic Park, Alcatraz, vast expanses of downtown, and the Transamerica Pyramid to the Bay Bridge. The full service building provides 24-hour doorman service and on-site management for the comfort of the residents.
A perfectly designed and executed remodel in 2007 transformed this residence into a sensual contemporary vision. Every detail is masterfully conceived and finished. Architects Huang & Iboshi worked closely with contractors Mayta & Jensen to develop the sophisticated owners' vision.
Stunning panoramic views, including all the major San Francisco landmarks, enter the space through nearly 50 linear feet of floor-to-ceiling windows and deck in the north facing great room. This open living space includes an inviting seating area with lava rock fireplace and art screen concealed TV, a dining area with access to the kitchen and a separate bar for entertaining. There are curved walls of sapele wood with built in glass front vitrines for the display of artwork.
The full cook's kitchen is finished in figured maple cabinetry and stainless steel backsplash tiles. It enjoys access to the dining area and the views beyond from a curved counter top with sliding glass screens for formal or informal entertaining.
The residence includes three bedrooms with views, terraces and ensuite bathrooms. Additionally there is a powder room, wine cellar and an office/den with perhaps the most astounding City view of all. In every room the finishes are the finest in quality and tasteful design.
