Description

In 1997, Ruth Quayle Boone bequeathed the 16-acre Boone family farm known as Forest Home Farms to the City of San Ramon for use as a municipal historic park in memory of her husband, Travis Moore Boone. The 16-acre farm is located at the base of the East Bay Hills and Oak Creek divides it in two almost equal parts. The southern portion of the property is home to the Glass House Museum, a Victorian style home and its tank house built in 1877. The Glass House is a two-story, wood frame dwelling with a one-story rear wing. The tank house, somewhat modified from historic condition, is a two-story, wood-frame structure that is probably slightly later in date than the house. The Glass House has recently been restored to its original beauty and is open for tours and a Vicotrian Life education program
