Visit to a Claude Oakland-Designed House on Shannon Road
Sunday, May 25th, 2008Jo-Anne spotted a house for sale that was designed by Claude Oakland in 1974. It was located only a few miles away in Los Gatos, on Shannon Road.
We made an appointment to view the house and spent an hour going through it taking photos.
This was an important ‘find’ for us as we now had an architectural precedent where Claude Oakland had designed a house having a roof with a 12:12 pitch. Our house had a roof with a 10:12 pitch and we wanted to keep the roof the same height but reduce the span.
