Laurene Powell Jobs, the widow of Apple co-founder Steve Jobs, acquired a sprawling mansion in San Francisco’s Billionaires Row. The historic 17,300-square-foot estate reportedly cost $70 million, setting a new record for the most expensive home purchase in San Francisco. Powell Jobs is known for her leadership of the Emerson Collective, her founding of the Steve Jobs Archive, and her acquisition of The Atlantic magazine. The Real Deal: The widow of Apple visionary Steve Jobs bought the 17,300-square-foot home at 2840 Broadway Street, in Pacific Heights, the Wall Street Journal reported, citing unidentified sources. The sellers in the off-market deal were Sloan Lindemann Barnett and Roger Barnett, who bought the property in 2011 for $33 million, according to the Journal. Sloan is the daughter of billionaire George L. Lindemann; Roger is CEO of health-supplement Shaklee. The Barnetts had quietly shopped the house and initially sought $100 million, sources told the newspaper. The previous San Francisco record was set in 2021 by the sale of another Pacific Heights home for $43.5 million, according to local agents. The four-story Spanish Renaissance Revival mansion, built in 2016 on a design by society architect Willis Polk, was cited by Architecture Digest as “the most beautiful house in America.” The mansion sits on a 0.17-acre lot next door to a contemporary house owned by Oracle billionaire Larry Ellison, according to the Journal. Also on the block is a home owned by Jonathan Ive, the designer behind some of Apple’s most successful products, including the iMac, iPod, iPad and iPhone.
