Grace Poe’s second million dollar house in the US – a piece of American history

Grace Poe still owns a million dollar house in Walnut Creek, California. Poe simultaneously owned the million dollar house in California and the million dollar house in Herndon, Virginia.  The California house is “a piece of American history”. Two American houses, 1 million dollars each On 7 December 2015, one of Grace Poe’s lawyers publicly admitted that his client still own “at least two properties” in the United States. What Poe’s camp and Grace Poe herself have never told is that one of these properties, the California house, is worth $1 million. The reason Grace Poe does not tell the truth about her properties in America is simple: There is a huge contradiction between the presidential candidate’s presentation of herself as a hard-working overseas Filipino and the reality of her life of wealth in America. As revealed by OSI, Grace Poe sold her mansion in Herndon, Virginia in May 2006 for 947,000 dollars. http://www.opensourceinvestigations.com/ In August 2005, nine months before selling the Herndon mansion, Grace Poe had become the owner of another million dollar house.

Her house in California is in Rancho San Miguel, a subdivision in Walnut Creek, recently included on the US National Register of Historic Places. Los Cerros Avenue is part of the Rancho San Miguel a development built by Joseph Eichler who “was the only merchant builder in America who built modernist style homes on a large scale, designed by skilled architects and using quality materials”.  http://www.eichlermidcentury.com/ rancho_san_miguel_map The Eichler homes, one story modern houses with open floor plans, glass walls and backyards, inspired the television series Mad Men set design. According to Richard Paoli, Chronicle Real Estate Editor for the San Francisco Gate, “if you own one of the unique homes Eichler built, you know you're living in a piece of American history”.
