rps324 Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 No respectable Glenbrook Valley house would be without a shrine and this one is no exception. It also has a lot of poured terrazzo, really good size rooms, and no remuddling! It is a one owner and is in real good shape. Stolitx needs a good neighbor so the pressure is on to find one!7831 Santa Elena Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jm1fd Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 Did they just take a regular 'ol bathtub, dig a hole, and toss it in to create a "sunken tub"? Wow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TJones Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 Hmmmmmm, a Roman Tub in 1960. There must have been a remodel in the 70's. I am a little taken aback that the location would fetch $239k right on Broadway. YIKES ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rps324 Posted June 14, 2008 Author Share Posted June 14, 2008 Hmmmmmm, a Roman Tub in 1960. There must have been a remodel in the 70's. I am a little taken aback that the location would fetch $239k right on Broadway. YIKES !The tubs are original. Everything was custom on the house and per seller it was built in 1965. You really don't hear much inside the house as far as traffic noise. The utility room and kitchen are the only windows on that side and the bedrooms are on the opposite side so you really don't hear a thing over there.Any one that has been to Hobby has driven past this house repeatedly. I really think it just needs to have the fence brought up from the back corner of the house up to the front corner with a gate across the side driveway and turn around to help mitigate the potential of any noise and make it feel less "exposed" or whatever on that side. I am going to try to put something together in July and have these all open at once. This is one you really have to see inside of to appreciate it.

rps324 Posted January 21, 2009 Author Share Posted January 21, 2009 I have some other pictures on this one besides the ones posted on HAR The appliances in this one are original vintage ones in incredibly good shape. Even the cabinetry doesn't show wear. There is a unique triple sink set up and nutone food center also. Behind the main kitchen is a terrazzo floored half bath, laundry area and second "back up" or caterer's kitchen. It has the double sinks, stainless built ins for the wax paper & paper towels, and a full size stove and frig. There is also a good size walk in pantry with 4 built in drawers, shelving of course, and one pegboard wall for hanging pots and pans or other items. The office space doesn't photograph well since it is being used primarily for storage. There are two rooms to it, (you can see the doorway to the second room) plus a half bath. It is detached from the main house, across the patio. There entry has a raised ceiling and fan light window over the door. The rest are on HAR Formal living Formal dining Den with terrazzo flooring Kitchen Front Bedroom Study niche off front bedroom Front bath with walk in terrazzo shower Middle bedroom Bath for middle bedroom Rear bedroom The rear bedroom also has a sunken tub (in lavender) with a matching sink no less. And of course the prayer shrine This one has been reduced to $215,000. We did have a full price offer on it, but that one fell apart unfortunately, darn it. So it is still available.

Dan the Man Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 That awesome fridge looks older than 1965. I have a 1948 model that looks identical, except for the handles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
