1950s

Jean Varda lived in the "unpainted shacks at Crinkles Corner" and on coastal property in Anderson Creek Valley but after WWII began Varda was forced to move inland because he was an "alien". Varda and Virginia lived in two places before moving into the "Carriage House" pictured above. One was the Red Barn which sat "uncertainly atop a small rise above Cannery Row with the glittery blue and white bay beyond." [1]
Inside the barn included this room with fireplace. It is said that Varda pioneered this stlye of fireplace; the hovering hood above an open 360 degree hearth.
