Nob Hill, Estate of the Day

I don't describe too many homes as romantic but looking at the pictures for this one, that's the word that first sprung to mind. Now this could be because I have certain romantic associations with Nob Hill in San Francisco (and specifically with the Nob Hill Inn) but I think it's the house. This stately home was built in 1915 in the flourishy Beaux Arts style. It has four bedrooms and has a beautifully extravagant redesign by interior designer Paul Wiseman that relies on a palette of creams and whites with rich golden tones. The home has private offices, a wine cellar and a "pentroom" on the roof terrace that offers beautiful San Francisco views. It is listed at $7.9 million.

*Now* you're talking. Classy. Polar opposite of that Andretti train wreck you featured recently.

When I see a house like this I can't help wonder -- why would you ever sell it?! I'm sure for the same reasons the rest of us mere mortals sell houses but I still wonder.

Gorgeous... Too bad it's in San Francisco. I am not a fan of the city... Too much hustle, too ghetto, and too many homeless people. I live outside of it. But the city aside, this is a beautiful, tasteful house. Wow.
