    It is a nice house. But it's a HOUSE! Make me understand your reasoning. Unless you are a Real Estate Agent - I just don't get it. I've seen MUCH nicer homes.
    i could care less who lived there. i live in a shoe box in the city of the chicago and to me that looks like a sick ass house! end of story.
    Further back and forth a wave will break on me, today...

    That's way too much in my area but is it reasonable in Southern Cali? What's the average home going for over there?

    Yeah, that's a pretty average house and price for coastal southern California.
    It's really just a tract house in a large subdivision. It's off a very busy main boulevard, not near the beach.

    In the late 70's/early 80's it was probably worth less than $100k. And I agree, it's pretty cheesy to make such a big deal of the EV connection so many years after the fact. Especially the "Grammy Winner" part.
    And who picked those paint colors?!


    [Full disclosure: I've been to the houses where the Beatles grew up in Liverpool and stood on the spot where Lennon met McCartney. It was oddly thrilling.]

    Talk about your "average southern California" tract house! Looking at the front of the house and the shots of the first floor, it's the same exact tract home model where a childhood friend of mine lived. And that was in a different subdivision two miles to the north!

    The musical slideslow was a kick. Seriously how much of a selling point would that slide show be to anyone outside of San Diego? I'm left wondering where did the realtor get the musak... and why didn't she use a PJ song? Copyright issues?

    Bottom line is, it's a typical tract house where Eddie lived his not-so-perfect years in high school. Kind of bittersweet if you ask me.
