Mark's Preview Notes: At first, Jerry had a hunch that this may be a
one-off custom Eichler. After a deeper look, it is less likely to be
an Eichler-built home. Nonetheless this is a jewel of a mid-century
modern home in the Bay Area. The wood paneling seems original, as do
the floor to ceiling windows and massive painted-brick fireplace. The
angular lines and radiant heating are quintessential mid-century
elements that Eichler Enthusiasts appreciate, and just picture what
this would look like with a period George Nelson Saucer Lamp hanging
over the dining table! Clearly this home is awaiting a makeover for
the 21st century — updating the bathrooms, kitchen, and landscaping —
but what a fun project this would be! I hope we will get a chance to
see what the new owners have in mind.
