This is a San Francisco Peninsula landmark. So cool that the new owner is adding fun touches. Everybody sees the Flintstone House when driving north in I-280. Our kids were probably calling it "The Flintstone House" when they were 5 or 6.
We drove by a week ago and I didn't notice the make-over. We are going that way this Friday and I can't wait to see the new yard art! Good for Ms. Feng!
There's a nice video at the SJMN site.

that house is a very bad copy of a Pueblo dwelling that suffered the further indignity of that horrid color scheme.
what the heck IT IS San Fran. Sanity hasn’t resided there in a long, long time.
that ‘house’ is fugly.

If the dinos don’t always make sarcastic comments about how they’ve been repurposed then they’re not true Flintstones.

It may be different, but it IS iconic and fun to see. Usually buildings like this are hidden away, but this one is out there for all to enjoy.

The cartoon one isn't nearly such an eyesore.

That place looks more like Spongebob Squarepants place than The Flintstones.

For those not familiar with the San Mateo Peninsula, south of San Francisco, that body of water behind the viaduct is sitting on top of the San Andreas Fault.
To: BradyLS
It used to be white and we called it the star wars house.
I like the dinosaues.

You are exactly right. The three reservoir lakes are located in a "rift valley" right on the San Andreas Fault. I was on a docent-led hike today at Los Trancos and we had a retired seismologist from USGS describing the fault system. We could see upper and lower Crystal Springs reservoirs and San Andreas reservoir beyond. Our view was lined up perfectly along all three.
The Flintstone House is located near #3 on the map just on the east side of 280.

Almost 8 million people live here. There is exactly ONE Flintstone House.

That thing has cultural misappropriation written all over it. Only “people” who should be allowed to live there are the Geico cavemen.
