The Background Story The house was built in 1927 and we’ve restored it to a pretty original example of that bygone era, including glass doorknobs, original unpainted redwood tongue and groove walls, Douglas fir floors, working double hung windows, and pedestal sinks.  We’ve brought in a few twenty first century niceties, Viking kitchen, LG large capacity washer and dryer, Lynx outdoor BBQ, and a 75-inchTV.
