Today was our Prudential Grand Lake office meeting. After going over the new listings, changes and closes we went on our Prudential tour of the Piedmont, Montclair and Grand Lake office new listings
*** Another great reason to list with Prudential ***
One of the homes on today's tour was over on Osborne Court in the Piedmont Pines area of Oakland. I noticed that many of the homes in the area ring true to W.R. Yelland as the architect for the tract!
I had never been up on Castle Drive before, but as I drove up the hill, there they were a whole grouping of Yellandesque designs. I just love being a Realtor and exploring areas I haven't been to before.
I have been in the proximity of this area before, because on the other end of Holyrood Drive is Ascot Drive and another known documented Yelland in that tract and in the neighborhood. The Hildreth Residence at 6165 Ascot Drive. ( http://activerain.com/blogsview/295972/Yelland-Expedition )
Back to my original suspicion that Yelland was working with developers, and not necessarily working only with custom homes.
If you remember from my earlier posts you'd have noticed that the architect's in-laws were named Holyrood. ( http://activerain.com/blogsview/348541/A-photograph-of-the )
