Lovely spacious layout. A few things catch my eye, very lower shower heads that are typical of that era. Does the house still have the original galvanized plumbing system? If so, a big red flag. One MAJOR worry that I see in a lot of "remodeled" homes are "upgraded" finishes but they ignore what is happening behind the walls which is VASTLY more important than what you can see. That is why I always, always pass on remodeled/flipped homes unless they have documentation and permits for the plumbing, HVAC, electrical and seismic retrofits. The two vertical columns on the kitchen island supporting the main beam is worrisome to me at first glance. Do those supports go all the way to footings?

Plywood 4” OC PLYWOOD, then a new and durable alternative to dimensional lumber. Large glass windows, replacing the old small windows. Large block construction to simplify construction for fireplaces, and glass walls on occasion. Large atriums that opened up entries. And many, many other striking features.

No, AC was very uncommon in our area. We are on SF Peninsula, between the ocean and the bay. We get a few days a year with high temperatures and most of us just endure. I am aware of only one home that was originally build with "forced air radiant" hating system that would allow air conditioning installation. My understanding is that Eichler experimented with that design in South CA and built just one here in the Bay Area.

The scale and proportions of those rooms is terrible. The space is so small they have to put unapholstered chairs in front of the fireplace because upholstered chairs would overwhelm the room and space. How long are you going to sit in those uncomfortable wood frame chairs? 10-15 minutes? You aren't going to curl up for 2-3 hours in front of the fireplace. The bedrooms have tiny windows you can't look out of, and you can't get cross-breezes at night. That family room area has a wall in front of the window. I'm not getting why everyone is so smitten with these homes.

Beautiful home. I moved out of the Bay because the prices for a home are ridiculously high. No one saw this craziness coming. My grandma bought her home in Mountain View for $60,000 in the 70’s. Those were the days when you could afford things and live comfortably. Sadly, the Bay is overcrowded and the original residents have moved out. I bought my home an hour away from the Bay for $338,000. Although I miss the Bay. I don’t miss the high cost of living.
