While chit-chatting with a lady affiliated with the aforementioned Noe Valley garden tour, I learned about a mansion owned by Bob Pritikin (he of the protein-centric diet). He doesn't live there; he rents it out for weddings, parties, and events of that ilk.
I was so intrigued by this bit of news because the mansion is on a block I pass every day. And it's situated smack dab in the middle of the block, surrounded by a monstrous senior center, various family dwellings, and an elementary school. I never saw it before because it's visible from a couple of streets upon which I never travel.
When the lady told me about it, my initial reaction was "Well I'll be doggone."
Too cool.
Those are statues on the roof line.
Details about this hidden marvel can be had at http://cheneryhouse.com/. However, those nifty statues are missing from the pic on the site's home page.
