Oh my golly. What I would give to own that home. I am excited to hear you will be near me shortly. I am sure you are very busy but if you have time while you are in L.A. I would love to meet you.

You should be getting some commission for these kid.
GORGEOUS Place! I agree with Rich Honey..Call in your comission, for the BEAUTIFUL Showings from these pics!(FAB!)
Another house to consider owning once I win one of those multi-state lotteries…
Beth: I will be a busy bee but I am sure we can fit in a coffee or two!
Rick and Tally: If they sell because of the website I should! LOL
Vincent: I know. Tell me about it. My boyfriend and I are looking at homes and I’m all gung-ho on this one. I am trying to explain to him the historical importance and also economic benefits of owning this one. He’s not listening . . .
The house is BEAUTIFUL! A dream home for sure. I can just picture Carole and “Philo” in it.
If they let you in be sure to take more pictures. Please.
I drove by the house today. Still up for grabs…
Thanks for posting these photos, Carla. I have really enjoyed seeing them, especially the foyer and the living room. I can almost visualize her in those rooms, in fact, I’ve been wondering if the photo of her standing by a similar window was taken in this house. Do you know the one I mean? I think you have it in your photo archives. The view from the window is very different, but it would have changed dramatically with the passage of time.
I think you are right Debbie. It could be that one or the house that her brother Fred built. Judging from her appearance in the photo I think the Powell house is more likely. Good work mate!
