Friday, November 11, 2011, by Sally Kuchar 2513 Pacific is a prime piece of residential real estate tail. The "classic Queen Anne Meets 21st Century" abode is located on a "great block" of Pacific. We're going to agree. The 5-bed, 5-bath home was purchased in early 2006 for $3,425,000, and recently underwent a complete renovation and seismic upgrade by Regan Bice Architects and Ryan Construction. Take a peep at the photo gallery above, and it becomes very clear that no surface was left untouched and no expense was spared. The property just landed on the market today with an asking price of $6,995,000. What say you, dear readers? Think it'll sell for asking?

The subterranean space is clad with rocks that Ehling dug up in the backyard and affixed to the concrete walls; it's renting for $1,350 a month. One word of advice, though: in his earlier days, Ehling used to wrestle under the nickname "Cowboy Cassidy."
