Title: Take a tour of our new house
Post by: somegirl on February 05, 2009, 09:25:55 PM
That's right, we're moving to the twisties! ;D

Here is a pictorial tour. The pictures were taken by the realtor, so all the furnishings you see belong to the sellers.

Our new place is in a little tiny town called Loma Mar.  Here you can see how much fun it will be for the motos and the bicycles!

He needs help with his projects anyway, so we can share and use the garage as a shop ;D

Beautiful house, congratulations  [thumbsup]. Love the skylights and exposed beams - looks like you get good natural lighting in spite of being under all those gorgeous trees. Is the cottage included in the purchase as well?

Again, congrats - that would be a dream house for lots of people.

Yes the cottage is included.


We all know that's not important.



What matters is the two garages  ;D

I'm definanlty envious of that part!

Yup, I've got a car, a truck, three motorcycles, two bicycles, a tool chest and all the other related garage stuff.  Everything fits in the garage, but I have nowhere to work on anything without evicting a vehicle ~

Paula, Dave you certainly hit the spot with this pad  [clap] [clap]

Thanks for all the happy thoughts people. Getting this place was a nightmare!



In terms of lodging-yer all welcome whenever. There'll probably even be a spare bike or two.

I think a little piece of that "amusing" wallpaper should be saved for something.

Nice house & garages [thumbsup]

I grew up in Santa Cruz & I've ridden all those roads on bicycles & motos....... very good times [thumbsup]

My parents have a place down the mountain from you in Boulder Creek off of 236 & they absolutely love living in the Redwoods [thumbsup]

Good luck with the move & post some pics when you get settled.

p.s.  Does Somegirl ride an S2R ???  If so, I think I met you guys @ LDD 2007...... you were replacing a broken tail light bulb in the parking lot.  If it was indeed you two, you don't look anything like Mr. Incredible....way too thin ;D

Congratulations you guys!  That reminds me of home in CA. The wife and I used to live in Gualala, up the coast from you guys about 4 hours by car or 2 by bike. ;) We had a nice house on an acre with redwoods and Hwy 1 as my property line. I miss the roads for riding and the scenery. We traded up for better weather and warm water but WAY down for riding. :-[  Thanks for the warm fuzzies and best wishes on your new home.

Your new digs look most inviting. I love to be around trees except when the Wind and Ice causes them to fall over.  

It certainly will be different than living next to the Bay  !You shouldn't have to put up with traffic. You'll be able to listen to a different kind of wildlife after dark on your very fine deck. Might want to think about having a Gun or two in case some uninvited nogoods decide to try and breakin with evil on their mind. A Dog besides a nice pet can be a good early warner and sometimes deterent to intruders.

By the way, I live in a 16 room house in the country in South Central, Ohio and right now it's value for propert taxes is a little les tha $200,000 . I know prices are much higher for Real Estate in California , so what would a place like your's cost w, an acre of ground ?  More than a million or less ?      Dolph      :)
