As you arrive at this quintessentially San Franciscan Victorian house, its ornate wooden exterior and stairs invite you inside. Located in Noe Valley (a family-friendly area right by the Mission District and Castro) you can’t help but feel at home from the offset. The interiors feel warm, plush, and playful. We love how some of the pieces play on transitional versus modern – the wire-sculpted moose head above the fireplace, and an angular chandelier in the lounge, alongside original paintings and photography prints. The living spaces are all connected, leading outdoors to decking and a leafy garden. Start the morning out here with the free weights or on the yoga mat like a true Californian. After lunch, pop on the record player or have a tinkle on the piano by the beautiful windows. For the little ones, you’ve got your very own playroom filled with kids toys and books. For a day out, gather the family and head twenty minutes up Twin Peaks for spectacular views of the city. About twenty minutes in the other direction will take you into the Mission. Get a babysitter (your host can help you out with recommendations) and head out for wine bars, excellent... restaurants, and perhaps a cocktail to round off the evening.

Local guide
About Noe Valley
With the hillsides of Diamond Heights and Twin Peaks providing a pretty backdrop, the highly desirable Noe Valley's Victorian and Edwardian homes are popular with young families. It borders the Mission, Dolores Heights and the Castro, amongst others, but despite its proximity to central San Francisco, it retains a small-town vibe, giving it a strong community feel. Walk down 24th Street, and you'll find artisanal boutiques, bakeries, wine and cheese...
