OVERVIEW — Discover Old World charm in this romantic Mediterranean villa on Telegraph Hill overlooking the shimmering bay and the Embarcadero piers. Classic Palladian windows, tall carved wood doors, gorgeous hardwood and stone floors, handsome iron work and custom lighting characterize the attention to architectural detail found throughout the residence.
