Pre-Close

These photos were taken at various times over the ~12 weeks from the first time we saw the property on 12/3/11 until close of escrow on 2/28/12. They were taken with a relatively low-end camera, as I have time I will begin taking photos in earnest. :)

  • Photo taken by my neighbor from his house(his knoll is the same altitude as ours, but ~750 feet North). He described this as a "Typical morning on the mountain". Our house is on a knoll just out of the frame to the right. Photo Credit: Mike Rowe

  • View from the deck attached to the master bedroom. The most distant hills are the Monterey Peninsula. The light strip just below that is Monterey Bay.

  • Stitched-together panorama showing part of the mixed grove just off the main knoll. The house is behind the camera. This was on the day that the septic was being inspected, which explains the pumper truck. :)

  • Walking back up the road from the well with my Realtor. Lots of potential places along this road to clear space to sit under a tree and enjoy a good book and a fabulous view.

  • There is a small parking area cut at the edge of the neighbor's property that is an easy walk from the house. The view from this location near sunset is breathtaking.
