The Original House

I wouldn’t go so far as to say that our old house was totally shabby.  Built in the 1950’s, it was a typical home you would find on the San Francisco Peninsula.  1,400 square foot living space, 1,700 sq ft if you count the garage.  Our home was a bi-level home with the sleeping quarters built entirely on the garage.  The living quarters were all on the first floor in a separate wing.  The interior was definitely in need of some modernization.  Our kitchen for example, still had the original GE electric range that the house probably came with.
