Traverse the walk-up at 2624 Green Street and you may feel yourself approaching an East Coast manor, where classic red brick and ivy-covered walls evoke the moneyed traditions of Love Story's preppy Oliver Barrett IV. But this 1908 home will surprise you.

The dramatic entryway announces a fully contemporary home, speckled with classic period details yes (crown moulding, vaulted ceilings), but designed for modern life.

Formal spaces for living, dining, and lounging all have luxurious touches—a stylish minimalist fireplace, large soaking tub, marble countertops, and a garden are just some of the creature comforts. After work, imagine parking your Tesla in the two-car garage, shooting hoops on your private B-ball court before dinner, and then making a quick stop in your wine cellar to select a vintage for an exquisite meal prepared in your eat-in kitchen. Finish the bottle on the deck, where sweeping views of the Golden Gate Bridge, Palace of Fine Arts, and the bay will remind you why you paid $14 million.
