(the banner is from last night when I had my candles lit and looked across the room and saw how pretty the cabins that my sis painted looked in candlelight).
I happened to come across the link to the LA Times article on Joe Crocker's house being for sale. I looked at all the pics and then saw that there was a Youtube tour of it.
(I would never want to live in a house this big and opulent - but I would take these acres of land in a minute! He has two greenhouses by the way.)
To me this is one of the most spectacular and appealing celebrity homes that I've ever seen photos of, both inside and out. I do love most of all - the library and a few of the bedroom suites - such a gorgeous house.
Here are a few pics (if like me you love to peek into the homes of celebrities)... and then if you want even more of a feel for the place i put up a youtube.
But if these photos are enough and you are having a busy Saturday - even these few images show you the EXACT KIND of place I could spend the rest of my days in. RIP Joe who passed away at 70 (somewhat recently I believe).
(When you see all the photos - you will see that they had a great decorator who made each room look so welcoming and cozy.)
Below is just one of many awesome bedrooms.

And I doubt anybody has the desire or time to listen or look at two videos I've posted but I enjoyed this one below so wanted it on my blog. This is Billy Joel doing a tribute song to Joe Cocker - singing Get By With the Help of My Friends - and he sounds just like him. Great job.

Wow, very interesting post and what a beautiful estate! I watched that video and I'm listening to Billy Joel singing Joe Cocker's song right now. Loved seeing that estate and grounds!
Wondering where you took the photo for your banner, what room?
wow i would rather live in a one bedroom small house near the ocean and trees, that would be my heaven, now let me go hear from from good old Joel, also enjoyed his songs, always good one Sandy
I-love-your-new-banner!!!!!! yessssssssssssss...
always fun to peek into the homes of the rich and famous. ,-)
but one thing that spoils it for me is, the way stylists change things, for photo shoots.
I would like to know, that I am looking at the home, as it was lived in. by the owner. not as the photo shoot stylist wanted it. -pout-
Oh my, what an amazing house! Way too big for me, but it sure is beautiful! I loved the Billy Joel video too.
thanks all, i agree -the house is too much - but i want the property, yeah!!
Wow....I never would have imagined Joe Cocker having that much money. I just went on line and read that he worked steadily touring all over the world right up until his death. The detail and architecture of the home is stunning! Now I want to go listen to some of his music.
oh and I loved Billy Joel singing Joe Cocker, wonderful video
