Step into 172+ years of grandeur at this fully operational, turnkey Victorian masterpiece, an extraordinary survivor from pre-Civil War California. Originally known as the Sharp Mansion, it was built in 1853 by the Sharp family, Gold Rush pioneers, during an era when gold was said to pave the streets of San Francisco.

Long regarded as El Dorado County’s largest private residence, this architectural gem is an iconic presence in the Gold Country, defined by its striking double flying veranda that wraps two sides of the home. While rich in opulent period details and dramatic scale, the home remains remarkably warm and welcoming.

Set on a 23,000 SQFT city lot with beautifully manicured grounds and rare historical botanicals, this grand estate offers 35 rooms-including 16 bedrooms and 11 bathrooms-making it a true entertainer’s dream. Over 200 weddings have been celebrated here, a testament to its elegance and charm.

Whether continuing its current use as a B& B or creating your own vision, this is the ultimate townhome for those who value history, space, and style. Ideally located between San Francisco and Lake Tahoe, in the heart of California’s Gold Country, the mansion has even been affectionately referred to by the Monterey Pops as “The Grand Dame of California’s Painted Ladies.”
