Worth for Trendy New Place Has Dropped by Over a Third – SocketSite™

As we first outlined back in May, the rather spectacular new building at 15-17 Guy Place, which replaced a little single-family home, hit the market priced at $15 million in March of 2021, positioned as an “almost 8,000-square-foot, seven-level residence,” with a 5,115-square-foot, 5-bedroom main residence (17 Guy Place) over an 1,870-square-foot, 2-bedroom guest residence (15 Guy Place), multiple terraces, and a garage for one car.
“Located amongst San Francisco’s most prestigious luxury towers and residences and in one of city’s most dynamic and oldest neighborhoods, Rincon Hill,” the residences are finished in white oak, with a sweeping central staircase (and elevator), Calacatta marble, and a sky terrace (with panoramic views, an outdoor kitchen, and plumbing for a hot tub) atop it all.
