Property details

About 3506 Albatross St

The G.W. Simmons Residence, c. 1909. Offered for the first time in over 45 years, the G.W. Simmons Residence is a landmark of architectural significance and innovation. Designed by Master Architect Irving J. Gill, this seminal work is heralded by Save Our Heritage Organisation (SOHO) as “remarkably... constructed a year or more before the earliest modern movements that would emerge in Europe,” ...a significant precursor to Modern Design and an embodiment of Gill’s visionary philosophy. Nestled on a generous, tree-filled promontory with Canyon and Bay views in the Heart of Bankers Hill’s Historic District, this incredibly special property offers a rare opportunity to live in harmony with nature, where simplicity, serenity, and architectural legacy converge. A once-in-a-generation offering, where less truly is more. Not to be missed.
