The legendary San Francisco Victorian house, famously associated with members of the Grateful Dead, has been listed for sale at $3.2 million (£2.5 million). This historic property, located in the vibrant Haight-Ashbury district, served as a creative hub for the band during their early years.
A Slice of Rock 'n' Roll History
Built in the 1890s, the 3,500-square-foot home became a sanctuary for Grateful Dead members and their associates in the 1960s. The property's colourful past includes hosting jam sessions, songwriting collaborations, and the kind of bohemian gatherings that defined the era.
Architectural Charm Meets Musical Legacy
The four-bedroom, three-bathroom home retains many original features, including intricate woodwork, stained glass windows, and period fireplaces. Current owners have carefully preserved the property's character while updating essential systems.
"This isn't just a house - it's a piece of American music history," said the listing agent. "The energy and creativity that flowed through these rooms during the Summer of Love era is palpable."
Modern Amenities in a Historic Setting
The property offers:
- Updated kitchen with premium appliances
- Spacious living areas with original hardwood floors
- Lush garden perfect for outdoor entertaining
- Prime location near Golden Gate Park
While the home has been lovingly maintained, the new owners will inherit a property steeped in counterculture lore, complete with stories of musical experimentation and the free-spirited lifestyle that made the Grateful Dead icons of their generation.
