Really worth a visit, only open a few days a month. Especially love the history of the house and the family that built it. Make sure to check out the time capsule letter and photos!
It’s only open a few days a month, but it’s worth a visit! Docents explain the history of the house and a bit about the antique furniture collection.
Built in 1861, the Octagon House represents a housing style briefly prominent in the U.S. during the mid-1800's. Popularized by Orson Fowler, his legacy still remains here in San Francisco!
Designed to optimize a house's natural light , space, warmth during the winter and coolness during the summer.
Open 2nd Sunday & 2nd/4th Thursday from 12Noon to 3pm.
Very limited days and hours when open - check first
Vale a pena se você gosta de arquitetura . A casa realmente é diferente!
