Some homes hold furniture. This one holds a life — two lives, a family, and nearly a century of beautiful accumulation. This estate belonged to a remarkable couple. He was a WW II Merchant Marine for over two decades who sailed into history and came home with the instincts of a collector and the eye of a traveler. She was an accomplished violinist — Oakland-born, Oakland Tech raised — who graced the stages of local symphonies and earned medals for her artistry. Together they built a home, raised a family, and filled their rooms with everything that mattered: treasures from around the world, music, community, and the everyday artifacts of a household that was filled with love. The collection spans an extraordinary range — from 1920s antiques and wartime keepsakes through the confident lines of mid-century modern, all the way into the warmth and color of the 1970s and 80s. Every decade left something behind. Scrapbooks document her musical years. His slide carousels from the 1940s capture postwar Japan and ports of call across the globe. Tucked throughout the house are the traces of a family life: toys, games, train sets, and schoolwork kept with care. Come ready to linger; this one has layers.
