Nextdoor founder Nirav Tolia listed his San Francisco home for $25 million.
The six bedroom home was built by a famous Bay Area architect.
Tolia and his family are temporarily leaving San Francisco for Italy.
Nextdoor founder Nirav Tolia just listed his San Francisco home in the Pacific Heights neighborhood. It was originally built in 1916 by famous Bay Area architect George Applegarth for himself and his wife. Applegarth is also known for the San Francisco Spreckels mansion, built in a distinctive French chateau style.
In 2015, the home's interior was totally gutted and remodeled in a three year project, while the Italian Renaissance-style facade was preserved. 2775 Vallejo Street is listed at $25 million with Malin Giddings of Compass.
Tolia bought the home in 2011 as a wedding present for his wife, The Wall Street Journal reported. He told WSJ that the couple is temporarily moving to Florence, Italy, and will eventually look for a home outside of San Francisco.
Tolia founded Nextdoor in 2011 as a social network based around neighborhoods. He stepped down as CEO in 2018, and now invests in early stage Internet companies.
