On one of the sloping streets of San Francisco’s upmarket Russian Hill neighborhood, a more than century-old Tudor Revival-style home has sold for $8.8 million.
The six-bedroom property, once captured on canvas by the artist Evgeny Lushpin, famed for his hyper-realistic landscapes, was built in 1914, according to the listing with Mark A. Levinson of Compass, who most recently brought the home to the market in March asking $9.95 million, listing records show.
Described as “architecturally magnificent,” the 6,300-square-foot spread “has been well maintained, with all the recent updates designed to flow seamlessly with the home’s original period detail and charm,” the listing said.
There’s also a newly renovated kitchen, spaces for remote work and study, an attached two-car garage, a private garden, and sprawling views taking in local landmarks from the Golden Gate Bridge to Alcatraz, the listing said.
The home boasts a celebrity pedigree, too, having reportedly belonged to Academy Award-winning actor Nicolas Cage in the mid-2000s.
The actor, 57, bought the home and a neighboring vacant lot for $9.4 million at the end of 2006, before putting them back on the market following spring, according to the Real Deal, which first reported the home had found a buyer. Click here to read more via therealdeal.com.
Compass represented both sides of the December sale, with Ted Bartlett and Tina Bartlett Hinckley bringing the buyer, whom Mansion Global couldn’t identify.
A representative for the firm declined to comment on the deal on behalf of the agents involved.
