Letters and numbers featured prominently on the façade of an exceptional San Francisco luxury home mark what the property once was – “Chemical Engine No 44”. Chemical Engine House 44 was originally constructed in 1909 and operated as a San Francisco firehouse for 50 years.

A recent renovation has transformed the historic building into a unique 4-level residence that, while thoroughly fresh and contemporary, remains connected to its past. The home features the original copper doors, original spiral staircase and several period touches among the modern design and amenities that include a wine cellar and tasting room, family room with wall of glass, gourmet “loft” kitchen and much more.

The truly remarkable property is currently listed at $4,250,000 by Luxury Portfolio member Paragon Real Estate Group.
