Carolands Mansion – One of the bay areas largest homes. . .

If  you’ve never heard of the this house, you’re in for quite a surprise. How could a home of this size go unnoticed in the bay area? Easy, just be located in a community that is strictly for rich residents where most people tend not to go. But for most of the residents of northern SF peninsula, this home is well known.

Here is a video I took over twenty years ago when the home was the Peninsula Decorator show house. Over 68,000 people toured the home over a 3 week period! At $20 per head they raised a lot of money for the Coyote Point museum.

About 6 years after this video was taken, the home was finally purchased by someone with the financial means to do a full blown restoration of the house.

I sincerely hope that now that it has been resorted that it will be maintained so that future generations can enjoy it
