The Lodge on Joost An airy, expansive, lodge-like modern residence, set back in its garden is perhaps the oldest building in this historically fascinating setting in San Francisco. Behrend Joost, real estate and railway developer, purchased the forested land from Leland Stanford in approximately 1880. In the early 1900’s, inventor, W.A. Merrall built the landmark, Sunnyside Conservatory: San Francisco’s ‘other conservatory’, which can be seen from the south side of this home. This one of-a-kind dwelling has served a myriad of purposes: barn, neighborhood shop and, in a tradition of Outsidelands innovation, now serves as an inspiring, nature-oriented custom home in one of the city’s best-kept-secret locations.
