Lake Gregory




WL and I ran up to Crestline CA yesterday to look at some weekend properties. It's an hour north east of Los Angeles and at 5500', usually 10-20 degrees cooler than the San Bernadino valley.
Of the six we saw, I put in an offer on a very small house on a large piece of land. Three lots and a million dollar view all the way to Apple Valley and Victorville.
The house has a new porch/balcony and is very private on a dirt access road. We are hoping to gut some the interior to give us more space and "open" it up. There used to be a bathroom below the house so we'll investigate a master bedroom down below. I've already told WL that the old potbelly stove will be replaced with some swinging 1970's scandinavian version.
If this bid doesn't go through, we have a second house with no view but again on three lots and a huge backyard with stream on the other side of Lake Gregory.
