Faircourt is a compact 1956 recording without an architect named on the tract map. The date puts it squarely in Eichler's best period, and the houses reflect the standard the operation had reached by then even without an attribution to lean on.
It would later be extended — Faircourt No. 3 & 4 follows in 1957 — which makes this the first half of a two-part neighborhood built a year apart. The recorded lots run along Richardson Court.
What was built here
The classic period. Larger plans, more assured roof geometry, longer glass runs — and, from about 1957, the atrium: an open-air room dropped into the middle of the plan. Whether a given house has one is the first question to ask.
What moves the number in Faircourt
- 1956 plans, right at the edge of the atrium's introduction.
- Read alongside Faircourt No. 3 & 4 next door; the two recordings are a year and a design step apart.
- Unattributed, which tends to keep it off enthusiast shortlists.
What is it worth?

Before they hit the market
Most Faircourt homes we sell never reach a portal.
Owners in these tracts tend to know each other. When one decides to move, we usually hear first. Join the list and you will hear early too — no volume, no drip campaign.
