Be my neighbor! The house across the street is coming up for sale soon.
The house is owned by a neighbor who is not only the original owner from 1963, but an employee of Eichler Homes. Sadly, for a single, older lady, it's a bit much to keep up so her family is passing it to the next lucky owner.
The house has had some work done over the years, including the stone facade which was added decades ago to protect against the very strong afternoon sun (a good idea, really), but nothing that really violates the ethos of the house and design — after all, the previous owner knew Joe Eichler (Joe's wife gave her an original George Nelson Coconut Chair that sat in the house for years). Almost every house coming up on the market is going to need some work and it's nice to not have to pay for something that someone else considered an upgrade… but that a new owner might want to tear out anyway.
Based on some recent sales and current listings, we'd expect it to sell in the mid/high-400s. While this trend in increasing prices is not great news for bargain hunters, it's still a lot less than other Eichler homes in the Bay Area.
