   Thanks Jim. BTW, if you like this type of architecture, check out the book “California Romantica”.

   Just to be clear, is this YOUR house Jim?

   Not my house, but there was some cryptic subliminal messaging in the beginning of this video tour about me being interested in gathering ideas in case I build a house, which is under consideration:

   I keep the posts coming on “interesting houses”, for everyone who might be looking for home-building ideas.

   If Lord of the Rings was Mexican inspired, the Shire would have homes like this in it.

   Very nice Jim

   It’s nice that the architecture is congruent with the history of Southern California. I always find designs like Tudors and so on a bit jarring in San Diego.

   Dwip, agreed…..also the faux Tusan stone castles splashed everywhere during this last boom….very much an “imported” look compared to the indigenous early CA/Santa Barbara styles.

   Would be a nice look for my vacation house.
