Originally known as the Sharp Mansion, built by Gold Rush pioneers, the Sharp family, as their private residence in 1853 when the high-yielding gold mines were said to be paving the streets of San Francisco with gold. For years, deemed El Dorado County's largest private residence, it's an unmistakable fixture in the architectural landscape of the Gold Country. Its architecture features an iconic & unique flying double veranda spanning 2 sides. Boasting opulence & drama with bespoke period details, it maintains a warm & welcoming feeling in a charming setting. A house with historical & architectural significance, it sits on a 23,000 SQFT city lot, the ultimate townhome replete with delightfully manicured grounds featuring many historical botanical specimens. The mansion boasts 35 rooms, inc. 16 bedrooms & 11 bathrooms, making it an entertainer's dream. Perfectly appointed for lavish gatherings, it has hosted over 200 weddings. Conveniently located between San Francisco & Lake Tahoe in the heart of California's Gold Country, the home was lovingly referenced by the Monterey Pops as the Grand Dame of California's painted ladies
