On the top level is an open balcony, overlooking 21st and T streets and the State Capitol dome in the distance. While the delicate wooden shingles reflect the careful attention to detail on the exterior, it's the grand interior finishes that give this mansion its "wow" factor.

While the rooms are packed with decor, don't forget to look up. Even the ceilings feature fine detail, like this "crayoned" design.

The space surrounding the stairs offers even more grandeur. It features its own fireplace as well as carved Victorian flourishes on the banister and even inlaid paintings.

Each of the bedrooms offers its own decadent palette with rich wood trim throughout and eye-catching retro lighting.

And how about this view from one of the bathrooms. The pedestal sink is surrounded by light from the vibrant stained glass windows.

An unofficial history of the home reported construction started in 1898 and the owners, Caroline and Fred Mason, moved into the mansion in 1900.

The Masons were well-known in Sacramento for their haberdashery and steam laundry business. The unofficial history reported they also owned the first horseless carriage in the city, an electric automobile kept in the carriage house that's still standing.

Over the next few decades, the mansion lost its luster, falling into disrepair in the 1960s, when Victorian homes and their extravagant embellishments lost their appeal.

The Smith family bought the estate and embarked on a significant restoration, rebuilding the foundation, installing a more modern kitchen and replacing the wiring and plumbing, while maintaining the home's classic charm.

They also restored some of the fine details, including the stained glass windows throughout the home.

Then the Smiths filled the home with vintage furniture to give it historical charm.

There's even a phonograph in one of the bedrooms if you need a break from the modern convenience of streaming music.

The iconic Sacramento mansion has been on-and-off the market since 2008, when it was originally listed at $1.8 million. Now, at roughly half the price, this mansion is looking for its next resident, one who will join an exclusive club with just 4 owners in its 100-plus year history -- that is, if the price is right.
