While not busy running Twitter and Square, the two multi-billion dollar companies he co-created, tech mogul Jack Dorsey finds a residential relaxation in the bustling Sea Cliff area of San Francisco. Its mid-century, flat-roofed modern architecture, acquired in 2012 for $ 10 million, is treacherously cantilevered on a steep, almost unobstructed cliff and enjoys spectacular views of the bay. On a rare day without fog, of course.
Dorsey apparently loves his house, the views inducing vertigo are damned. And he has now seen fit to expand this dizzying field, sneaking a record $ 21.9 million for his neighbor's house. The off-market transaction was actually completed late last year – with zero fanfare – and is the highest paid for a Sea Cliff property, easily exceeding the $ 18 million that Salesforce billionaire Marc Benioff repaid in 2009.
Unfortunately, as the new Dorsey house has never been listed for sale, there are no proper photographs and few concrete details available. But the records show that the boxy box was built in 1962 and is two storeys high with five beds and three bathrooms on a living area of nearly 3,600 square feet. There is an independent garage for two cars and an extremely steep blufftop property. Like its neighboring main residence, the house is invisible from the street, sequestered behind thick foliage and dangerously perched near the edge of the cliff. Lucky sellers, a family based in Thailand, bought the estate in 1997 for only $ 2.85 million. Ka-ching!
More dirt
The Dorsey complex now contains more than 7,300 square feet of mid-century living space, with seven bedrooms, on one hectare of cliff. The ancient trees surrounding the property provide an enviable dose of nature's privacy. The area is also known for its abundant wildlife – foxes, coyotes, and even rare mountain lions patrolling the premises. Nosy Bird tweets and tweets their leafy views.
In addition to his expanded Seacliff estate of $ 32 million, Dorsey also has a home in Los Angeles. The contemporary confection of $ 4.2 million, nestled in the Hollywood Hills, has won a 2017 AIA Architecture Award and is occupied by his long-distance girlfriend, the model International Raven Lyn Corneil.
