September 3, 2009 by Wilma

For those “Party of Five” show lovers….

First it was the house where “Junior”, the film in which our Governor demonstrated his “pregnant man” act, was shot — now another San Francisco home used as a key location, this time in a TV series, is slated to go on the block.

According to SocketSite, the elegant Victorian at 2311 Broadway was the “Party of Five” house and it will appearing on an MLS near you imminently.

The 1994 series, in which five siblings are left to fend their own way in the world when their parents are killed by a drunk driver, was a launch pad for several well-known actors, including Jennifer Love Hewitt, Matthew Fox and Neve Campbell.

The home last swapped hands in 1999 for $5,400,000. Details yet to be released on the price tag ten years on.

House-hunting? Check out this luxury $300,000 cave

February 21, 2009 by Wilma

Here’s your chance to be the modern Stone Age family — living in a cave with more luxury than Fred Flintstone ever dreamed of.

The couple who turned the 15,000 square foot cave in Festus, Mo., into a dream home are now selling it on
eBay, with bids starting at $300,000.

Features include three bedrooms, a 400 square foot kitchen, and geothermal and solar heating.

And the back of the cave still has the stage where Ted Nugent, Bob Seger, Ike and Tina Turner, the MC5 and many other bands performed.

Curt and Deborah Sleeper, who live in the cave home with their kids, are being forced to sell because of the economic crisis.
