| This house has been nicknamed many things including the Flintstone House and the Marshmallow House. It was designed by William Nicholson and built in 1976 by spraying cement over inflated aeronautical balloons. The house was restored in 1988. Around 2007, the off-white house was painted orange. In 2016, the house, failing to sell, was being rented out. It was sold in 2017. In 2018, the house was painted and surrounded with statues and a "Yabba Dabba Doo" sign. Dinosaur statues in the backyard are visible from I-280. In 2019, the City filed paperwork to get the sign and statues removed but everything is still there as of 2020.
