Video Description: The video opens with aerial views of the Presidio and Golden Gate Bridge over San Francisco Bay. The camera moves to a view down Lyon Street towards the Palace of Fine Arts and the Bay. Next we see the façade of 2832 Lyon, a two-level lower residence in a charming two-unit condominium building directly across from the Presidio. Afternoon light streams into the west-facing living and dining rooms, each with walls of windows and decorative balconies facing the Presidio. These two primary entertaining rooms are connected via a large opening, allowing the space to live as one. The living room’s wood-burning fireplace anchors the room and is flanked by bookcases. There are beautiful hardwood floors throughout the residence. Calacatta white marble counters with three large windows line the north side of the kitchen with its superb appliances, white shelving and vintage dish cabinets. The six-burner white Viking professional range with stainless hood provide all the horsepower needed to produce enticing meals. The large kitchen includes a casual eating area with built-in seating and stylish lighting. The two east-facing bedrooms are flooded with morning light and overlook the lovely garden. The well-proportioned primary bedroom with walk-in closet connects directly to the hall bath. The hall bath is split between the water closet and its main room with marble counter, white sink and white-tiled shower over tub; both have windows. The second bedroom can be entered either through the hall from the pantry/laundry or via the primary bedroom. Located between bedroom 2 and the kitchen is a pantry/laundry room with stacked washer/dryer and additional storage. Accessed via the walkway on the north side of the building or the back stairs from the pantry, the lower level offers a warranted, expansive flexible use room with high ceilings, half bath and walk-in closet. The room, with eastern light from two sets of glass doors, opens to a private deck overlooking the mature shared garden. An aerial view pans across the GGNRA Presidio with its trees, trails and cultural & athletic facilities and back to the Golden Gate Bridge. Facing east the view is of San Francisco’s Cow Hollow neighborhood towards downtown with Salesforce Tower and Transamerica Pyramid on the horizon. The video returns to the same opening footage of the Golden Gate Bridge as seen from The Presidio.
