Casebolt House is a historic residence in the Cow Hollow neighborhood of San Francisco, at 2727 Pierce Street. Built around 1865 for Henry Casebolt, a Virginia-born blacksmith and transit magnate who owned cable car lines on Sutter, Polk, and Larkin streets, the four-story home was designed by Hoagland and Newsom in the Italianate style. It measures about 5,875 square feet and has 7 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, plus a large garden and a balcony with views, set back from the street. The house was built with salvaged materials and is the oldest house in Cow Hollow. It was designated a San Francisco landmark in 1973. Casebolt lived there with his wife and 11 children until his death in 1892. The home later belonged to Judge Carlos Bea and Louise Bea.
