Hidden Quietly in the San Francisco Peninsula’s reflective past, you’ll find this Historic 1891 Tudor Revival Bed & Breakfast offers rustic pleasures of days gone by. A bit of England comes alive in a leisurely atmosphere with gardens to enjoy and comfortably elegant accommodations.
Features of the house include: hand painted murals and large, antique-filled rooms
During 1891, San Francisco was in turmoil and rapidly changing. At the time of the
gold rush, a great deal of money poured into the city. Ernest A. Coxhead, a noted
English architect, decided to build his family’s country retreat here,in San Mateo.
Coxhead used the English rural vernacular, with a double bowed roof and delicate leaded
windows, to add charm to his English cottage. The idea of the rustic suburb quickly
gained popularity around the Bay Area, influenced by Coxhead and his colleagues,
Julia Morgan and Bernard Maybeck. They added new Arts & Crafts techniques and
innovations to English country homes. This rustic Tudor Revival home has survived,
almost untouched, for over a century. Coxhead House creates its current ambiance by
paying tribute to all three architects.
