for storied homes
Leola specializes in historic home renovation and restoration consulting from your Victorian and Edwardian houses in San Francisco, to Craftsman cottages and Tudor Revival homes in the East Bay, or other period properties in the Bay Area. Leola is a nimble studio with years of historic real estate experience. Our diverse set of skills will help in everything from rehabilitating family homes, to respectfully preparing your historic home to be as market ready as possible, collaborating with artisans, and more.
Obsessive investigations, eclectic knowledge, and a love for design and history.
... it's what makes us great partners. Our work honors San Francisco's unique architectural history and reduces construction cost and waste, all while helping create comfortably modern homes out of places from the 1800s to the 1940s.

LEOLA HALL, CIRCA ~1900
We take our name from Leola Hall, an enterprising and self-taught architect, builder, and painter in the Bay Area. Leola had a passion for creating afforable homes and built an integrated business where she not only designed buildings, but bought property, led construction, standardized features and pioneered new technologies, handled financing, and sold the finished homes. Many are still standing and are highly valued for their elegance and livability.
Do you have a storied home that deserves thoughtful partners?
