On its own private level, you will find a spectacular master bedroom suite which includes an office, cathedral ceiling, a private deck and unobstructed views of the entire Bay, SF and the Golden Gate Bridge. On the lower level you will find a completely renovated downstairs with new bath, laundry room, a large family room and John MacGregor's original large workshop.
