The Villa is SF's newest, hottest Entrepreneur Mansion.
Situated in the hills bordering Noe Valley and Castro with stunning views overlooking San Francisco, the house boasts 3 stories, 6 bedrooms, 6 decks, a theater room, and heated pool.
It's currently occupied by 6 entreprenuers @BWay, @HermioneWay, @MarcusLovingood, @JohnnyDiggz, @RichCambridge and of course me @ChrisSaad.
We are each involved in separate startups.
Like most homes in Silicon Valley, we host all kinds of private events for our friends. These events are attended by a variety of people (depending on the theme and purpose of the event) ranging from our close friends to VCs and Founders. There are a mix of event types including small gatherings, dinners, large mixers, parties, networking and so on.
It's a place to live your work and enjoy your life. It is our home.
3 of the housemates (out of 6) happen to be involved in the BravoTV Reality TV show about Silicon Valley, so TV cameras are sometimes found roaming around.

What The Villa is NOT
It is NOT the set of the reality TV show (unlike the Real World suite or Big Brother house). When there are cameras here (which is fairly rarely) they are focused on the cast of the show and it is VERY obvious - no hidden cameras or mics. The house is also big enough that one can easily keep to oneself. The camera crew is typically attracted to large events hosted at The Villa - in which case the event is clearly labeled as an “on camera event” to attendees, ahead of time.
It was NOT scouted by, set up or paid for by Bravo.
