We’ve talked about the Marin Dream House Raffle to death, now it’s time to bring it back home with the San Francisco Dream House Raffle which will benefit the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts (thanks to reader “sorrynoblog“).
Schtuff:
- The raffle aims to raise funds for Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in its continuing effort to support the arts in San Francisco. In addition to supporting YBCA, the raffle will be giving away over 370 prizes, of which the grand prize is a $2.4 million San Francisco dream home or $1.8 million in cash.
- Each raffle ticket costs $150.
Let us know if you can figure out the address, that way we can share more details about the house.

BTW, is photoshopping your staging a new econotrend? The perspective on the fake furniture is making me nauseous.
@ rick. yeah, that’s hard to read, but we’re getting close. 1200 block of 5th ave for sure…
Definitely 1234 5th Ave. or next door. Check out the Streetview on Google Maps – http://tinyurl.com/cjfyy2 – you can see the detail on the roofline and the adjacent houses match.
@wtr3: thanks for the info, but it seems the folks over at socketsite broke the news about the house. it’s actually 1240 5th: http://www.socketsite.com/archives/2009/03/cant_sell_raffle_1240_5th_avenue_the_san_francisco_drea.html

I found a great site that promotes home raffles from around the United States. Most of the money goes to charity, so its for a good cause and someone gets to win a house just for donating. Its at:
