The house of Kirk Hammett
Kirk Hemmets house is up or sale. This Pacific Heights residence commands a stature reserved for the City's elite properties. The circa-1899 Georgian masterpiece retains its architectural integrity from one of San Francisco's most prestigious locations bordering the Gold Coast. Set behind gates, the brick façade and knolltop setting add mystique and privacy. Inside, the Old World heritage comes alive with grand rooms, rich woodwork, and impressive ceiling heights. The broad entry salon is flanked by the living room and library. Note the well-preserved detail of the box-beamed ceiling and wainscot paneling.
The magnificent staircase with its carved banister and wide landings is another focal point. From the banquet-scale dining room, French doors open out to the south terrace and garden. The chef's kitchen has been artistically remodeled with granite countertops, soffited ceilings, and professional appliances. A breakfast nook and window-wrapped sun room are welcome spots for everyday family needs.
Beyond the gracious staircase landings, the mid-level of the home features four bedroom suites adaptable to a variety of needs. The first suite (near the elevator access) currently makes an ideal den complete with an adjoining south-facing study. The master suite can be served by two separate bathrooms and offers some Bay and partial Alcatraz views. The top floor of the home is accessed from a concealed staircase and provides discreet passage for staff or guests directly from the main level.
A very spacious gallery hallway on the top floor is ideal for casual play space or homework center. Five additional bedrooms are on the top floor including a bedroom suite at the end of the hall positioned in its own wing. Do you have $12,500,000 and want to buy it? Then go here
