Midcourt is a nine-house recording from 1972, near the end of Eichler's building history. The late Oakland houses are a different proposition from the fifties tracts — larger, more enclosed at the street, more complex in section, and built to construction standards that had moved on considerably in twenty years.
Buyers who love the early houses sometimes find the late ones heavy. Buyers who actually have to live in one often find them a great deal more comfortable. The recorded lots run along Toyon Place.
What was built here
The late tracts, largely Claude Oakland's. Bigger, more complex in section, harder-edged at the street and considerably better built in envelope terms — better glazing, better insulation, more comfortable to actually live in.
What moves the number in Midcourt
- 1972 construction — materially better insulated and glazed than the fifties tracts.
- Late Oakland plans are larger and more enclosed at the street.
- Nine houses. Effectively no internal comparable set.
What is it worth?
We price Midcourt the way it was built.
By tract, by architect, by what is still intact. Tell us the address and we will come back with the range and the reasoning behind it — not an automated estimate.
Before they hit the market
Most Midcourt 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.
