room. It also has a front porch, which is the perfect place
to pass the time resting at this retreat. On one the side
of the house is a large deck and an expansive garden.
Teri is a hostess extraordinaire and loves the flexibility of
the house for parties and gatherings. She and Steve look
forward to hosting family and friends during the holidays.
The Christmas decorations give a festive feel to every
room in the house.
Steve Smith recently moved from Oak Commons in
Gilroy to join Teri. Together they decorated the house for
the holidays. Steve commented, “The Red House is an
absolutely gorgeous site and almost forces you to look
around and enjoy the outdoors, the hills and creek. It
makes you feel at ease.” Steve thinks the sounds made
by the hawks and falcons are “really cool.” The wildlife is
amazing. His most unusual recent sitings are of foxes and
bobcats. Steve has a passion for music, especially classic
rock and blues. He joins many others in mourning the
passing of a talented local musician, John Garcia, who
was his guitar mentor.
Steve has worked in Silicon Valley in information
technology since 1983 and specializes in Cloud and
IT management software marketing.
