508 Belvedere Street

This stately home is a rare beauty on one of Cole Valley’s most coveted tree-lined streets that is rich in character and bathed in humility. The grand foyer of 508 Belvedere stands tall and mighty between the contemporary elegance of a formal living room and dining room — creating a sense of calm upon crossing the threshold.The lovingly refreshed kitchen at the rear extends effortlessly outside to a garden complete with an acoustic water feature and a kaleidoscope of flowers and trees frequented by fabled hummingbirds on sunny days. Retreat to the upper level and choose from five inspiring bedrooms, each with their own allure, including one with a generous deck overlooking the serene garden below. Coming and going is a breeze from the interior-access garage on the ground floor. Leave the car behind and stroll to the shops and cafes on Cole Street, where people often greet one another by first name, and catch the MUNI to explore the city that surrounds this remarkable home.
