Selling New York: Show Review

Don’t say I didn’t warn you–I told you I was getting cable. And get cable I did. Naturally, the first thing I did was set my DVR to record the HGTV shows I’d been dying to watch. Top of my list was Selling New York, a new reality show featuring two sets of high-profile real (more&hellip)

Open House Report: A Crooked Street and a Library Make Me Swoon

Hope everyone had a lovely weekend. As I mentioned on Friday, I decided to spend my sunny Sunday afternoon touring open homes in my San Francisco neighborhood.

From Putting Out Fires to Inflaming Desires

A breathtaking home is on the market in San Francisco’s Noe Valley neighborhood. The four-story modern wonder used to be a firehouse, and the exterior retains many of the original elements.

Selling New York: A New Show I’m Dying to Watch

I subscribe to the HGTV newsletter (you might as well know – I’m a HGTV slut). I’ve been living in a temporary furnished apartment for the past couple months, and then out of the country before that, so it’s been a looong time since I’ve been able to tune into my favorite channel. And while (more&hellip)

A Brooklyn Condo Blowing Minds all the Way to Manhattan

In general, living in a new condo building makes me feel like a caged hamster. But Brooklyn’s new development, The Toren, is something I could most definitely get used to. The massive windows would make you feel like you’re suspended in the middle of an industrial post-apocalyptic futureland–in a good way. The common spaces blow (more&hellip)

Stunning SF Home, with Separate Guesthouse

I’ve always dreamed of having a beautiful house with a separate little cottage that I could rent out (even in my dreams I know how to pinch a penny). Or once I’m fabulously wealthy I could use it for house guests or in-law visits. This house is the physical embodiment of our dream. Whoever buys (more&hellip)

Isn’t this little cottage cute as a button? Located in the Mayberry-esque San Francisco suburb of Burlingame, the place just makes you want to eat it with a spoon. 2 Bedrooms, 1 Bath, a woodburning fireplace, claw-foot tub, and backyard with patio. And it all can be yours for a cool $799,000. (More photos after (more&hellip)
