他们被称为“painted ladies”—San Francisco’s famed Victorian residences. Beginning in the mid-1800s, European architecture became something of a craze in the city, with offshoots including Italianate, Gothic and Tudor revival, and Queen Anne styles. Fortunately, you don’t have to be a history buff to appreciate the delicacy, quirkiness, and undeniable charm of the Bay City’s grand old dames.

San Francisco is known for its Victorian revival homes, including this Italianate-style townhouse. The distinguishing features? Look for telltale roof brackets, bay windows, and brightly decorated exteriors—like a bright red door paired with blue stairs. Inside, serenity reigns, with watery colors (perfect for Bayside living), tons of natural light (thanks to those bay windows), and velvety furnishings.

Gothic, Reimagined

Gothic architecture, with its ornate windows, pointed arches, and peaked rooflines, was reborn during the Victorian era of the mid-1800s. You can still see Gothic done on an intimate scale in some of San Francisco’s most desirable homes, like this olive-hued residence. While the facade is dark, the interior is not. Floor-to-ceiling timber-paned windows create a dazzling play of light across the sunroom, where modern furniture blends seamlessly with antiques.

With its gingerbread trim, peaked roof, and multiple arches, this elegant home is the epitome of San Francisco’s Queen Anne revival. Named for an eighteenth century English monarch, this delicate style often features turrets and balconies. Walk inside, and you’ll be forgiven for dropping your jaw. The ceilings are adorned with detailed scrollwork, offset with warm, wooden doors and window trim. Modern art makes the whole look sing.

Thoroughly Modern

Exterior and Interior of House

Even if the facade is Victorian, the interior may be surprisingly modern. Case in point: this single-family home, built aslant on one of San Francisco’s famously steep hills. Traditional outside, the stark white interior is the picture of contemporary elegance, with a built-in fireplace, recessed lighting, and modern Art Deco furniture. For an extra striking look, the windows are bare, without blinds or curtains.

Don’t ask how much this three-story Victorian unit costs. It’s likely to be a pretty penny given San Francisco’s high real estate prices. With three stories, this renovated historic home boasts black-paned windows, which gives the exterior a sharp, contemporary profile. But it’s the interior features that provide a beautiful backdrop to simple, bold furnishings—like a monochromatic fireplace paired with red chairs.

One feature of Victorian homes is their penchant for pastels. Rather than fighting the soft hues, this massive townhouse amps up their dreamy quality to good effect. The exterior is painted bold lavender—even the trim. A refreshing palate cleanser comes within, in the form of pale lemon walls, teal armchairs, and original (unpainted) hardwood floors.

While many of San Francisco’s Victorian revival homes are turn-of-the-century originals, with fresh paint and regular upkeep, they can look like new builds. From the outside, this stately, gray home seems quiet enough. Nothing too bold about the white trim and polished wood door. But wait! Inside, the guest room features a sunflower-yellow accent wall, giving a whole new meaning to the words, “Rise and shine.”

不,这不是一个闹鬼的房子。但是这个普芬灰色的家可以弄错了汉语家庭的东西。这就是为什么它是完全翻新的,淡化内部吸引着注意拱形的窗户,语音成型和原始硬木地板。由于他们长长,狭窄的房间,像这样的房屋有时被称为“霰弹枪维多利亚人”。
