A (rare) certified LEED house with a modern sculptural attitude. Inspired by the Brutalist, era we have taken a hands on approach on this project incorporating artist built installations throughout the home.
5750 Golden Gate Avenue, takes full advantage of the California way of life catering to an indoor/outdoor lifestyle. This light filled 4 bedroom, 3-1-1/2 bath development is an artist creation of sculpted finishes and installations, floor to ceiling windows, seamless transitions and an amazing professionally landscaped level out garden.
A breathtaking sculpted entry wall and entry door is just the beginning of the artist experience once you enter. Custom floating stairs, hand sculpted hall divider wall, hand painted wall behind floating glass shelves in the master bath. Dramatic tile installations in all bathrooms. Truly a tactile and visual experience.
The interior has custom walnut cabinetry in the kitchen, master bath, and social areas. High-end kitchen appliances including an induction cook-top. Designer Porcelanosa cabinetry and tile for both guest bathrooms, a fully fitted luxe spa experience at the master bath, along with custom lighting throughout. San Francisco’s own floor to ceiling Bonelli custom windows, wide plank white oak hardwood floors throughout with hydronic radiant floor heat. Views from each bedroom. Custom Built-in closets and a roomy laundry room.
A future wired-ready smart home, includes pre-wiring for security, audio, and motorized shades as well as 6 pre-wired TV locations to include high speed Cat6 and RG 6 cabling.
