I’m pretty sure I can envision the dialog for when this house was built: “Yes. I want windows. Lots of windows. Lots and lots of them. I don’t really care where. Just lots of ‘em.”
And lots of windows there were.
Which is a good thing since this house is practically next to Highway 87 – you could double as a traffic reporter to supplement your income! Sweet!

And this is why trying to be “unique” and build asymmetrically is a bad idea.

A underwhelming house that still manages to create a sense of unease with its irrational and apparently random design.
Truly an architectural wonder.

A beautiful 100 year old “Colonial” house. What a delight. And it’s conveniently sandwiched between 87 and the light rail, so you can just walk out your door and easily be run over. But then again, look at the price, it’s a bargain.

It looks like a slapdash fourplex. Hey, that’s it – this isn’t just a house – it’s an income opportunity! Every SJSU student gets a free pass on VTA, so they can just walk out the door, hop on the train and still make it in time for those 7:30am biology labs.

When I was a kid I liked to doodle and would draw houses, sometimes they would look like this. Of course as an adult, after 5 or 6 beers, I could draw up plans for this place!!!

This house just sold for $450K. Apparently a fixer.
