Coming Soon

Scott Hargis is taking photos tomorrow at 1317 Spruce Street. I can't wait for you to see them .
I can't decide exactly what to call the house so I am calling it a "1910 Classic". I know that means it could be a Craftsman or a Bungalow and it isn't either. It looks sort of like an Edwardian but I think the architect borrowed a bit from the Victorians as well. It will be open on Sunday from 2-4 PM for the first showing so you will have to wait until then to see it for yourself.

I will post the photos as soon as Scott has them ready. The property is so close to Berkeley's wonderful Gourmet Ghetto and The University of California -- (and a block from the big house on Arch Street where Dennis and I lived for 17 years and raised our sons) that one can pop down to Chez Panisse for dinner, something we did for every occasion that we could think of, or to Peet's coffee, The Cheese Board or Saul's and I suppose to shop at a regular supermarket  although these days I am  Trader Joe's fan myself - and there is one not far from 1317 Spruce Street at university Avenue and Martin Luther King.

Ah what about the house? The house is awesome. But will have to wait until tomorrow morning for more details about the house. It is worth waiting for, I promise.
