Architect Designed And Furnished Loft
About this house rental
Located in Western Addition, this attractive house for $396 per night is a fantastic choice for your next break. Permit/Tax I.D. - STR-0001508 Our property was built in 1914 with bricks salvaged from the 1906 Earthquake. Robert Hutchinson purchased the building in 1960. Mr. Hutchinson lived in the building for almost 50 years until his passing in 2008. Mr. Hutchinson was a prominent San Francisco designer whose work was featured in Architectural Digest. He lived upstairs and had his design studio downstairs. Mr. Hutchinson used the private and public spaces in the building to experiment with architectural and design concepts. The walls of the loft have been lacquered red, flat black, and adobe. Many of Mr. Hutchinson's most dynamic pieces remain in the home, such as the burl redwood dining table (1978), the petrified wood table, (1981). The facade was also created by Mr. Hutchinson in 1977 and is unique to San Francisco. He believed in working carefully with craftsmen to create interiors that were conceptual and stupendous. The entire building underwent a complete renovation/remodel/earthquake retrofit, from the basement to roof in 2009. The loft has a private entrance on Sutter Street and a private garage entrance behind the building. (There are 24 steps to reach the loft from Sutter and 13 steps from the garage.) As you enter the loft from Sutter there is the great room, which is comprised of a spacious living /dining area. The guest bedroom/bathroom is located in the front of the house as well. The kitchen has been completely remodeled and is fit for a chef. The main bedroom suite is located in the back of the loft and overlooks the roof garden. Many elements in the suite were designed by Mr. Hutchinson. Mr. Hutchinson designed the fireplace, the couches, the cantilevered shelves, and the vanity in the bathroom. Off the bedroom is a breezeway with a door to a private 1,000 square ft. deck. The deck is a true urban oasis, overflowing with bamboo and orchids. There is a teak outdoor table for six and several seating areas. There are hardwood floors throughout, exposed brick walls, and massive steel columns. The loft is 2000 square feet has a private 1,000 square foot deck. Of course, there's great wifi and a washer/dryer. There is a private garage, entered on Fern Street, that is included with your reservation. Walking is the only way to explore a new city. The loft is centrally located in Lower Nob Hill, with easy walking distance to Russian Hill, Union Square, Ghirardelli Square, Chinatown, Pacific Heights, and Civic Center. Amazing restaurants, shops, and high-end groceries are close by as well. The California Street Cable Car is only three blocks away. The California Cable Car takes you to Grace Catherdral, Chinatown, downtown with a final stop at the Ferry Building. Although the loft is in the center of town it is peaceful and private. The loft has a relaxed San Francisco-New York loft aesthetic. Glorious bay breezes preclude the need for air conditioning. We have been listed on VRBO for over a decade and our reviews are outstanding. My partner Steve or I will show you around the place upon your arrival. We hope to see you soon.

We really enjoyed staying at the loft. It was comfortable and wonderfully designed with a beautiful outdoor area. It was convenient for us to walk to Union Square, Fisherman's Warf, and North Beach. It was great to have a garage to park our car in and we felt safe walking. Steve and Mike responded very quickly to our questions. We would stay here again and could not expect anything more.

We selected this loft not only for the amount of space but for the walkability to a few activities we wanted to do. The space is exactly as represented in the VRBO listing and the hosts were agreeable and easy to work with. However, the loft is located in an area known as Lower Nob Hill/Tenderloin which had a lot of homeless people in the area at all hours of the day and night. We understand that homeless people are a social issue for most cities, unfortunately this area however had more than it's share as compared to the other areas we walked through. Luckily it is on the border of Japantown and Pacific Heights which we felt much more comfortable walking in. We just had to be mindful of the routes we would take as we traveled around town. Having the garage was invaluable since we wanted to up to Napa and Muir Woods.

This condo is so special and truly unique! We loved it! It felt like we were staying in an art gallery. Steve was wonderful and met us there for check-in. It was spotless and very comfortable. The outdoor space is a dream and so very relaxing! And it is close or a quick cab/Uber ride to everything. We live in quiet, rural western Kentucky, so it took a minute to get used to the bustling sounds of the city at night. But we loved it and would definitely stay again.

This apartment is beautiful and absolutely one of a kind. There is tons of space. The beds are super comfortable. The kitchen is wonderfully equipped, and the outdoor space is an oasis in the middle of the city.
The immediate neighborhood doesn’t have much going on, though you will find the necessities. It is quite centrally located though, making it a great homebase.

Can’t say enough about this property and the hosts. Communication was excellent and a personal tour upon arrival. Clean, comfortable and above all funky! Such a cool place and the roof garden to hang out in is not to be missed. Location great and a good base for anything in the city. Will definitely come back next time in town!

Absolutely stunning !! This property is outstanding in terms of layout, design, decor, space, amenities and surroundings. We absolutely loved it. Steve made us very welcome upon arrival and showed us round the loft and talked through how everything worked. There are lots of ideas for places to eat and see, and Steve went as far as to answer messages throughout our stay and gave us great recommendations for restaurants etc. The loft itself feels like a rather large and spacious bit of paradise in the heart of this amazing city !! We did not want to leave !!!

We spent two weeks in this beautiful loft. We chose it for its proximity to downtown, but soon found that it is a great starting point for any number of long walks to Chinatown, Japantown, Pacific Heights, Presidio—even Golden Gate Patk if you are feeling ambitious. The property owners always responded quickly to our questions. The photos cannot do this space justice—the artwork and interior design are really fantastic. Also we cooked all our own meals here and found the kitchen fully equipped—actually more than fully. It is a gourmet kitchen.

The loft was in easy walking or transit to so many neighborhoods! We got around just fine without a car. It is right near Polk, with lots of places to for eating outside or takeaway and was an easy jaunt for us to get to Japantown and Russian Hill. The loft has lots of different seating and table options and felt like staying in a beautiful work of art! The private patio through the Master suite was a real plus for hanging out, eating brunch, and watching the hummingbirds feast on the colorful flowers. You can tell that this is a home that is lived in, so we had everything we needed to cook for ourselves when we wanted to.

Great outdoor space. Excellent hosts. The only VRBO we have ever stayed in that was featured in Architectural Digest. As comfortable as beautiful. Thank you so much.
5.0
Very comfortable living space ambience. Well furnished, easy space to relax and enjoy our stay when at property. Appreciated the use of private, secure, inside parking garage for our rental vehicle. We enjoy and are in condition for substantial urban hiking, and the central city location of the property allowed us to walk the distances to most city sites we set out to including Fisherman's Wharf, Coit Tower, Union Square, Chinatown, Oracle Park. The immediate surrounding neighborhood is a little gritty (ex. sidewalks not clean, some homeless street people), but similar to a number of other city neighborhoods. We felt very secure inside the property.

Really funky, nice place. The location was great, we were able to put the rental car in the garage. Overall, a really great place to stay.

We loved our stay at this great house! Robert and Steve were so nice to deal with and the place was great. We loved the character of the house, its history, and the rooftop deck was lovely. We had everything we needed and were able to walk or take short Lyft ride to all the SF sights.
5.0
Robert and Steven's rental is fantastic. It was clean and everything was just as shown/described in the listing. One of my sons slept on the couch and was very comfortable there with the bedding Robert and Steven gave us. The living room area almost felt like a third bedroom because it was sort of separate from the gorgeous dining table. We loved relaxing on the rooftop patio after our days exploring the city. We could walk to many of the things we did, including Union Square, Japantown, Fillmore shopping, Cow Hollow. The rental needed a repair that couldn't be done while we were there, so Steven and Robert adjusted our rental fee to compensate for the inconvenience it caused us, which was very generous and above and beyond the usual. All in all a great place to stay.

This is an amazing place to stay in SF. Centrally located, plenty of space, clean, well appointed. Highly recommended

What a fabulous home. So well appointed and artistically designed. And so comfortable. Dad/grandpa was in town for his 80th birthday and I wanted to find the perfect place for my folks to spend a few enjoyable days receiving visits from various family members. Mission accomplished! Dad was surprised and showered with love. They'll never stay anywhere else again.

big apartment but layout is not normal (to reach backyard and car garage, you have to go through the master bedroom). it does not have many windows.backyard is big and very nice with lots of plant.living room is also very big but only has one window.the garage is very convenient for our car to get in and out.Some homeless people with tents on Fern street that made me feel uncomfortable walking in the neighborhood at night timecloset of master bedroom is full with owner's clothesrefrigerator freezer is full with owner's food as well.owners said they live there majority of the time year round and rent this out occasionally.Not sure they hired professional clean people to clean this place before we move in.It did not give me a crispy clean feeling especially we were very careful during pandemic season.No one was sick during and after.We had a good time and enjoyed the stay.
