Electric Dreams

This €9 million San Francisco home has its own electric car charger

It’s pretty nice.

AFTER MULTIPLE PIRCE chops in more than a year on the market, a Mediterranean-style mansion in San Francisco’s Telegraph Hill neighborhood has finally sold for $9.98 million (around €9 million), according to Curbed SF.

It first listed for $16 million in May 2014, property records show. The price dropped to $14.89 million in October, then to $13 million in February before falling even further to $11 million in May.

With lots of Italian-inspired art throughout, the house is beautiful, but its detached garage and motor court is what makes it truly unique.

According to the listing, it comes with its very own Tesla charging station, though there’s no word on whether the car is part of the package.

Hopefully the new owner already has an electric car.

The house dates back to 1929 and was reportedly the first building in the city to be built using concrete.

The house is surrounded by lush gardens and olive trees.

The kitchen is spacious and comes with all of the necessary built-in appliances, though we don’t think the dog is included in the deal.
