Additional Information

Frequently featured in photographs, guide books, movies, and TV series like ‘Full House’, the Painted Ladies have gained international recognition. To the local community, they serve as a beloved emblem of our city and its past. These multicolored residences are all privately owned and seldom available for public viewing. The azure Painted Lady is noted for its authenticity and preservation amongst the seven houses lined up. Its interior narrates nearly 174 years of a family’s chronicles in the city. This isn’t an attempt to replicate an 1890 home, nor is it a tour aimed to provide interior design inspiration. The aim is for visitors to appreciate the period furniture and artwork, and find the tales captivating.
