Two new listings coming to Riverside this Thursday

16 Summit Road, $3.995 million. Built on the steep hill at the eastern end of Summit, its vertical design wins no architectural award in my eyes, but the owners have lived happily (I assume) here since 2005, so I guess no one’s tumbled off the slope, yet.

26 Glen Avon Drive, $5.995 million. Brother Gid’s bringing this back on the market after encountering buyer resistance last spring. I suspect that in this ever-accelerating market, its appeal has become less selective, and a happy ending will be soon achieved.

Nice house, excellent street, good neighbors, and with the Fountain boys no longer on Gilliam, two streets over, your chances of break-ins and arson are very much diminished.
