This exquisite example of Victorian architecture represents a classic specimen of the "Painted Lady" style - a trend particularly popular in San Francisco and other American cities of the late 19th century. The façade features rich polychromatic finishing, where the light cream base effectively contrasts with brown and green accents that highlight the architectural details.
Particularly noteworthy are the characteristic elements: two levels of bay windows that create additional space and fill the interior with natural light. The upper bay window is complemented by an elegant balcony with wrought-iron railings, adding sophistication to the building. Decorative cornices, pilasters, and filigree ornaments in green and brown form an intricate pattern framing the windows and doorways.
The entrance group is designed with special care - an arched double door is framed by a portal with decorative inserts and topped with an elegant green cornice. It is precisely this detailed approach to facade design that makes the building unique despite its typological affiliation.
In modern private construction, similar techniques can be adapted by using contrasting colors to emphasize architectural elements, adding decorative cornices and window casings, and incorporating bay windows to give the facade volume and expressiveness. Even a simplified interpretation of such details can transform an ordinary house into an architectural gem.
