That's actually pretty reasonable compared to the same vintage/size homes in nearby Orinda that are over $2 million.

Is that where MC Hammer's house was?

"...The folks over at Agent Advice sought to answer that question, polling 3,000 respondents to find the most aspirational streets across the country, according to a statement.

This one is for fun, but Agent Advice notes that, in places across the country, “certain streets are not just thoroughfares – they are symbols of status and sophistication.

“These destinations are the epitome of luxury, representing the highest ideals of prestige and privilege,” Agent Advice notes..."

10 Most Coveted Streets in the United States:
No. 1 Casey Key Road in Nokomis, Florida

No. 2 Laurel Way in Beverly Hills, California


No. 8 Skyline Boulevard in Oakland, California

Sounds like this article was written by someone who has never left Hartford and a bunch of realtors at Agent Advice who have never been to California.

According 3 of my realtor friends (who work the LA territory) Laurel Way wouldnt even make the Top Ten of "Most coveted streets" if you just include Beverly Hills and West Hollywood. They wouldnt turn down a listing there, but its hardly the top street.

Dont even get me started on Oakland being listed here.

I’m going to nominate Lake Earl Drive, in beautiful Crescent City, CA. For those who may have missed this prestigious location in their travels, look it up and many will agree!

Note the architecture at 5905 in particular! Veritable castle! You can’t just buy a place like this. You’ve got to earn your way into the neighborhood. Very exclusive!

It’s in Georgia next to Atlanta.
My friend from Pleasanton California lives in a 3.2 million house visited and he was amazed at the homes in sandy springs. He admitted having never been here he thought of Georgia as a podunk state originally.
It’s funny that Georgia is called a flyover state considering the airport is the busiest not only if the United States but the world in terms of passenger traffic. If you land in a state, is it still a flyover state?

Absolutely.

Georgia is still a fly-over State.

That's a beautiful area, but I don't particularly like that location you mentioned.

It’s an acquired taste I guess
