1067 Green St (undated)

c. 1970
Landmarked Feusier Octagon House c. 1856, one of only two surviving octagon houses in San Francisco.

Originally 2 stories, copied from an Orson Squire Fowler illustration. Modified late in the 19th Century with the addition of third story topped by a gorgeous Mansard.

Purchased in 1875 by the Feusier family whose members continually occupied the property for the next 80 years until it was sold in 1954.

5,267 sq.ft 4/3.5 on a double 1/5 acre lot and see-through Willy Wonka-style elevator. Sold for $2.8 in 1998. Listed for $5.2 in 2012, reduced to $4.5 - it did not sell.

In 2015, the house was advertised on Craigslist for 10K per month.
