I recently have been too busy to go to open homes, but this morning spotted on Redfin a really nice old Dutch Colonial style Edwardian home built in 1908 in Noe Valley:

When I see a more worksmanlike Edwardian home like this one on the eastern side of the city, most of the time the inside's gotten majorly messed up already due to the home's age and neglect or ill-advised remodeling efforts from decades ago (though in other places in the city like the Inner Sunset or the Richmond, there are some really beautifully built and well preserved three-story Edwardian homes). But not here, the really beautiful original interior features have been nicely preserved, while some other spaces that likely needed upgrading or had already gotten messed up were very tastefully remodeled in a modern yet classy way. The traditional Dutch Colonial exterior:
Living room with original rounded ceiling, you can see the stairs and stained glass window in the right:
Dining room with old box beam ceiling (repainted in white):
Really nice modern kitchen that opens up into the yard with lots of natural light:
Original detailing - molding on the rounded ceilings and stained glass window:
Upstairs hallway with a glimpse of the nice and colorfully cheery modernized bathroom to the left:
More of the remodeled modern but classy bathroom - the colors evoke the 1950s for me:
One of the bedrooms - traditional with original rounded ceiling, but cheerfully painted:
Nice backyard:
