Urban Dweller’s Mission Retreat

The understated simplicity of a historic façade belies the dramatic scale of this truly open, modern home created by Nova Designs + Builds. The sense of expanse is awe-inspiring, along with the seamless flow between the kitchen, living and dining areas, as well as the outdoors. 

An entertainer’s dream, the large kitchen island provides a natural backdrop to an impressive array of custom cabinetry, featuring maple ply cabinets with walnut veneered doors, as well as Thermador appliances and beautiful quartz stone counterspace.  A comfortable living room space is defined by a built-in entertainment center wired for surround sound, and the adjacent aluminum-clad wood sliding doors provide an ideal transition to the garden, resulting in a true indoor – outdoor dining experience.   

From the sunny West – facing patio, it’s only one step onto the grassy lawn accentuated with a mature Meyer Lemon tree that produces juicy fruit for margaritas and BBQ marinades.

One level up is a sumptuous and bright master suite with a dreamy bathroom featuring double sinks, a soaking tub and shower. Two additional large bedrooms are steps away and share a bathroom, plus an exceptional outdoor deck that will easily double up as additional living space.  The 4th bedroom/office/media room is on the top level and offers up a full en-suite bath, dedicated view patio and a connection to a spectacular roof top deck with a 360 panoramic feast for the eyes.

Designed and built by Nova D + B, this home will impress at every turn with thoughtful design, exceptional quality of construction, and smart home details rarely seen in San Francisco homes.  824 Florida is situated in a coveted Mission location where Michelin starred restaurants compete with local delis and taquerias for a truly authentic San Francisco experience. Sunny, hip, and imminently strollable and with an easy commute to the peninsula’s tech hubs, this home is an urban dweller’s retreat!
