1 Hawthorne Street 4E

San Francisco, CA 94105

Positioned on a historic lane in the Yerba Buena/Museum Row district, adjacent to SFMOMA and the Crown Point Press building, One Hawthorne Lane evokes elegance even in its name. As you turn down the street, you can feel an intimacy unique in the quieter streets of dense urban cores throughout the world's most exciting cities - and you might wonder - what will I find here? Across the street, the discretely sophisticated Benu, with its brick facade and courtyard entry, speaks to easy evenings spent with friends. Inside, the well-appointed lobby and welcoming staff make arrival a pleasure. The unit, which is on the 4th floor, is just above the roofline of the historic building across the street and facing southwest. It overlooks the tops of the lane's mature trees and is filled with warming sun. Unit 4E has a great 1 bedroom plus den floorplan. The den has enough space for a home office, or a fold out sleeping area for guests. It also provides access to the stacked, front-loading laundry as well as a separate pantry/hall closet. The large kitchen with ceramic tile backsplash, Bosch appliances and new quartz counters provides the cook with a place for company at the dining bar or adjacent dining area. The living room, being just beyond, is perfect for relaxing with a book or watching your favorite movie. Accessed via a small hallway for enhanced privacy, are a large bathroom with shower over tub and the bedroom, which features a huge walk-in closet. The building itself is the very definition of full-service. It has a gym and a great roof deck with BBQ and multiple seating areas. The 24/7 lobby attendants and valet make every day feel luxurious. And when you get out the door, the city is right at your feet. It's an easy stroll to museum row, sophisticated shopping, amazing dining, the financial district and sports venues. And quick access to so many headquarters (Salesforce, Google, Dropbox, LinkedIn), the South and traditional Financial Districts, CalTrain and seconds from freeways south or the Bay Bridge. This is the perfect SF location for a primary residence or a pied-a-terre.
