Inside one of San Francisco’s ‘Painted Ladies’
Imagine coming home from work and finding dozens of tourists camped across the street, snapping photos and singing the theme song from ’90s sitcom “Full House.”
For San Francisco residents Come Lague and Charlene Li, it’s part of their everyday routine.
The couple lives in one of the Victorian homes in the Alamo Square neighborhood, known collectively as the “Painted Ladies.” Made famous in part by their appearance in the “Full House” intro, the homes are among the city’s most photographed tourist destinations.
In 2016, Business Insider had the chance to tour the home. Take a look inside.
It’s unclear why Lague and Li got such a deal on the home. In 2014 the San Francisco Chronicle reported on the sale, “Maybe buying a piece of San Francisco history isn’t that appealing if thousands of tourists are taking a picture of your front door every day.”
