Sixty-three years later, the unusual property overlooking Highway 101 in Novato is on the market for the first time, reports the Wall Street Journal.

He is selling the property on behalf of himself and his late brother’s children through commercial real estate firm Marcus & Millichap.Mechanical design and freeway relocationHarkleroad designed the 1,560-square-foot house around a ce...
