An Important Pacific Heights Residence

Welcome to the Doe House at 2120 Washington, a glimpse into San Francisco’s Gilded Age. Built in 1908 by timber baron Frank P. Doe, the seven bedroom, 8,175-square-foot mansion occupies a flat double lot with front and side courtyards and a rear terraced garden. In 2011, the property underwent a sensitive renovation by the esteemed firm Butler Armsden Architects, preserving the home’s architectural bones while thoughtfully improving its flow and function.

This Classical Revival Edwardian residence, bordering Lafayette Park, occupies one of Pacific Heights’ most distinguished blocks, with the James D. Phelan estate next door and the Adolph Spreckels Mansion just down the street. This exceptional grouping of homes is a connoisseur’s collection of San Francisco trophy residences. The current sale of this fashionable home announces the first sale of these five properties in almost thirty years. We welcome you to become part of this market moment.

The Main Level features gracious public rooms, where Neoclassical architectural elements complement soaring ceilings and generously proportioned spaces. The great room forms the heart of the floor, with expansive floor-to-ceiling windows framing northern Bay vistas and creating an exceptional setting for both entertaining and everyday living.

The Primary Suite Level offers two ensuite bedrooms, each with its own distinct outlook—one overlooking Lafayette Park and the other opening toward the Bay. A third bedroom with a half-bath ensuite provides additional accommodations for family or guests.

Above, the Upper Level offers a more relaxed retreat, centered around a family lounge with panoramic Bay views. Three bedrooms, including one ensuite, complete this private upper level.

The Garden Level provides two additional ensuite bedrooms, extending the home’s generous accommodations across all four floors. Together, the four levels balance the grandeur and architectural character of an Edwardian-era mansion with the ease, comfort, and flexibility of contemporary living.
