Castle on the Park, Unusual Home for Sale in San Francisco

San Francisco, CA, February 12, 2009 --(PR.com)-- The property was extraordinary to begin with. Now, after more than a year of seismic upgrades and extensive remodeling, the former church has been transformed entirely into a stunning home, with enormous windows, hand-painted ceilings, warm hardwood floors and top-of-the-line appliances and amenities.

Once a church condemned by the City as no longer inhabitable, the home has been completely redone. Its interior has a modern sensibility about it, in breathtaking contrast to its Gothic Revival architecture. Some rooms, as you would expect, are enormous. Others are surprisingly intimate.

It is a remodel of remarkable scale and vision. Siamak Akhavan, owner of the home and a partner of BMP Construction, is delighted with the results and would be happy to live in the property. But he has engaged the Hill & Co. team of Woodruff & Miller, who represented him on the purchase, and asked them to facilitate a sale should a buyer be interested.

This is a one-of-a-kind property, and it will require a very special buyer. The public rooms give new meaning to the word “spacious”. The home includes a 5+ car interior parking area, spectacular stained glass windows and its own tower, with a custom steel and transparent plexiglass spiral staircase leading to a deck with 360 degree views.

Just a couple of years ago the building was in serious disrepair and abandoned. While occupying a desirable corner in one of San Francisco’s most vibrant neighborhoods, its prospects were bleak. Now, it is a true showcase. It is without question one of San Francisco’s largest, most extraordinary and stunning homes.
