The Bakalor's have moved to southern California

Barry and Sue have purchased land near Malibu in northern Los Angeles County, and are building a house on it and moved in this past June. The address of our new home is:

31700 Lobo Canyon Road
Agoura, CA 91301

The land is 20.35 acres in the Santa Monica Mountains, adjacent to the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area. We will be about 3 miles south of Agoura Hills and 9 miles north of Malibu and Zuma Beach.

Directions:

From 101: Take US-101 (Ventura Freeway) to Agoura Hills, and take Kanan Road south 3.3 miles to Triunfo Canyon Road, turn right, go 0.6 miles to Lobo Canyon Road, and turn left. We are 1.2 miles down the road, on the left.

From the Pacific Coast Highway (PCH, Hwy 1), take Kanan Road north for 9 miles to Triunfo Canyon Road, turn left, and continue as described above.

We worked with architect Les Makowski since November 2001 to design the house, which will have about 12,000 square feet of living space and about 16,000 square feet total. Les is also our general contractor.

We broke ground on March 19, 2003. The foundation was completed on May 16, and framing was essentially completed by the end of August. Rough electrical, mechanical, plumbing, and sprinklers were done in September. Exterior doors and windows were next, and in November we added an outdoor covered deck on the second floor. Interior wiring for phones, TV, Internet, and sound was installed in December, followed by insulation. The roof was completed and covered in early January, 2004. The drywall was completed in April, and cabinetry and stone floors began next. We are now well into the finish work.

Take the floorplan walk through.

Here are some images we have of the progress:
