1/27/2012 In the News Historic Pacific Heights Estate Selected for 2012 San Francisco Decorator Showcase

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. – January 27, 2012 – Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage, the leading provider of real estate services in San Francisco, announced today that one of its premier Coldwell Banker Previews International luxury listings, 2020 Jackson Street, a four-story, seven bedroom, nearly 11,500 square foot mansion, has been selected as the 2012 San Francisco Decorator Showcase. 

The home is currently on the market for $20,000,000 and is listed by Coldwell Banker Previews Property Specialists Clark Johnson and Dona Crowder.  

Also known as the Hellman-Heller mansion, 2020 Jackson Street is recognized for its contribution to the early history of San Francisco. 

It was designed and built in 1902 as a wedding gift from Isias Hellman, head of Wells Fargo Nevada National Bank, to his daughter, Clara, and new husband Emanuel Heller.  After the 1906 earthquake and fire destroyed most of downtown’s financial institutions, Wells Fargo Bank and the Union Trust Company used the home as its temporary headquarters.   

In the coming weeks, several of the Bay Area’s most talented interior and landscape designers will converge to transform the mansion into the 35th annual Showcase, one of the West Coast’s premier design events.  This year’s event will run April 28 through May 28 and will be open to the public to tour. 

Tickets will be $30 for general public and $25 for students and seniors, and will benefit San Francisco University High School’s Financial Aid Program.  

“The Decorator Showcase will undoubtedly take an already magnificent home to a whole new level,” said Johnson.  “The designers have a myriad of stunning features to work with, including a grand reception hall and staircase, large marble fireplaces, luxurious master suite, intricate molded plaster, coved ceilings, and cherry and oak walls.  I look forward to seeing how they’ll highlight the home’s beauty.”   Organizers say the home was a natural choice for this year’s Showcase.  

“Not only is the Hellman-Heller mansion rich in San Francisco history, but its grand and elegant scale provide a unique opportunity for our participating designers,” said Tricia Foster, director of development for San Francisco University High School.  “The opportunity to transform a San Francisco mansion with such historical significance is rare, and we’re thrilled to offer visitors a sneak peek inside a unique piece of San Francisco history.”  

2020 Jackson Street is just one of several multi-million dollar Coldwell Banker Previews International properties in the City. 

The luxury division of Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage closes more than $5 billion in luxury home sales annually in Northern California.   “The Decorator Showcase does a wonderful job demonstrating the talents of local designers and spotlighting the San Francisco luxury home market,” said Rick Turley, president of Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage. 

“Nationally, Coldwell Banker Previews International handles an average of $68.9 million dollars in luxury home sales every day.  Many of those homes are right here in San Francisco, so teaming with the Decorator Showcase creates an ideal partnership.  This is the perfect opportunity to give the public a tour of one of the many lavish properties the City has to offer.”  

For more information about the San Francisco Decorator Showcase, please call 415.447.5830 or visit www.decoratorshowcase.org

For more information on this home, please contact Crowder at 415.229.1399 or via e-mail at Dona.Crowder@cbnorcal.com or Johnson at 925.831.3332 or via e-mail at Clark.Johnson@cbnorcal.com

The Coldwell Banker TRI office is located at 1699 Van Ness Avenue in San Francisco and may be reached at 415.474.1750.  

About The San Francisco Decorator Showcase Now in its 35th year, the San Francisco Decorator Showcase is the West Coast’s premiere design showhouse event, featuring the work of the region’s top designers.  A benefit for San Francisco University High School’s financial aid program, Showcase has raised nearly $12 million and benefited hundreds of Bay Area students.  For more information, please visit DecoratorShowcase.org.
