Oldest Home in the Meadows
A seventh grader in Hidden Meadows asked an interesting question by e-mail today: What is the oldest home in Hidden Meadows?
I assumed she meant the oldest remaining home – many old homesites have disappeared, like the old ranch house of the Meadow Lake Ranch, which was converted to a restaurant alongside three lakes off Meadow Glen Way West. That burned in the 60s, and the lakes dried up and disappeared.
I am convinced there is a 1940s home on Mountain Meadow Road, but in modern terms there is a 1955 home on Rolling Rock Road, a 1959 home on Calle de la Reina, and three 1965 homes on Red Stone Lane.
I have several photos of Bob Pierce’s home in 1974, when it was the first home on Par View.
If anyone knows of a home older than the ones I have uncovered, please comment on-line or send me an e-mail.
