The oldest and biggest of San Francisco's iconic Victorian row houses known as the Painted Ladies is up for sale for the first time in 35 years, the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
The Painted Ladies, overlooking the city, offer a popular photo backdrop for tourists, TV shows and movies. They were feature in the opening montage of the '80s TV show Full House.
The Chronicle says owner Michael Shannon is asking $4 million for the ornate, 4,600 square foot Queen Victorian with Italianate touch.
Shannon tells the newspaper that he and his late partner bought the house in the year 1975 for $60,000. At the moment, that included a parlor full of hippie "spillovers" from Haight-Ashbury.
"They were gone by the end of the day," he says.
