Theodore F. Payne House
Theodore F. Payne House, Victorian residence in San Francisco, United States
The Theodore F. Payne House exhibits ornate wooden details and vertical architectural elements throughout its exterior and interior surfaces at 1409 Sutter Street.
Construction of this residential building began in 1881 under the direction of architects William and Alexander Curlett, who designed numerous structures in California.
The residence represents the social position of wealthy San Francisco families during the period of economic growth from the Comstock silver mines.
The house introduced modern amenities of the 1880s, incorporating advanced plumbing systems, central heating, and dedicated bathroom spaces within its layout.
This structure remains one of the few unaltered pre-1906 earthquake residential buildings from San Francisco's affluent class still standing in its original location.
