This is one side of the complex, and it's fairly clear that it's been carefully gone through and updated. Though small, the upgraded (recessed lighting, new flooring) as well as the layout make it look sizable. Scroll to see the kitchen on the other side...

9801 Hillside Dr, Forestville - $949,000
3 beds 3 baths 1,752 square feet. Year built: 1973.

Okay, this house is on the higher end of the price scale for what I like to show for median priced listings, but the architecture is just really neat. It reminds me of the main hall at any campground I went to as a kid, so if someone was looking for something more on the woodsy side than on the river side, I would say this is a good choice.

I rest my case. This living room is every campground lodge I've ever seen, albeit with far more attention to detail and aesthetics. I'm really impressed with the couch, too. It would be a plus if it were included in the sale. But there's one more thing, click to find out what it is...

Pool. (Photo courtesy of Berkshire Hathaway)
No estate is complete without a pool. What we didn't see is the fact that this house is on over an acre of land, and set up for organic, or small scale, farming. So, in addition to having the Russian River within walking distance, there's the possibility of starting a small business. Scroll to see the next house...

Not everyone is into the full wooden interior, but I can appreciate how clean and well taken care of it looks. I had been told once that when an interior has a ceiling shaped like this, with wood planks, it was meant to mimic the feeling of being in a boat. Well, as long as the house doesn't start swaying, we're okay. Scroll to head outside...

New flooring, granite counter tops, and a marble back splash grace the kitchen. But there's one unexpected upgrade that's great for a home this size, and one of my favorite interior design trends, click to see...

The bathroom has the sliding 'barn door' which is a big space saver when you don't have a lot of room to work with. Also, it just looks really, really cool.
