Built shortly before the American Civil War and extensively updated in 1872, it is one of the earliest examples of Queen Anne architecture surviving in the state. Originally constructed as a single-story two-room structure, it was expanded by the Black family, adding a third room to the rear and a complete second story, and adorning the building with period woodwork.
The house was built circa 1820, and significantly expanded in the 1850s. [2] It belonged to Samuel P. Black and his wife, Fannie Sanders, and it was later inherited by their son Thomas. [ 2 ] Samuel Black was an educator, and one of his students was future U.S. president James K. Polk , who visited the house many times.
The house was entirely re-wired and re-plumbed, the structure upgraded to withstand earthquakes, and discreet ventilation ducts were installed. Every shingle was removed and either restored or replaced, all timbers were stripped and refinished, and nearly all the tail rafters cantilevering beyond the roof line needed to be replaced.
The Black House was a building that formerly stood at 6114 California Street in San Francisco, California, in the United States. [1] The house was used by Anton LaVey as the headquarters of his Church of Satan , from 1966 until his death in 1997.
