Eddy Cue, who oversees Apple's Internet Software and Services division, has listed his four-bedroom, 3,721-square-foot Los Altos, Calif., home for sale with an asking price of $3.895 million.
The detached single-family, one-story residential home has been on the market for 8 days by realtor Ethel Green. The home was built in 2004 and it features 3 and a half bathrooms and rests on a lot sized at 18,295 square feet.
The listing was first highlighted by Realtor.com, which described the neighborhood as "unassuming" and "quiet," while located close to Mountain View. Inside the home are "gorgeous wood floors throughout the main living space, wood ceilings over the open kitchen and living area, and abundant natural light everywhere."
Outside, the house has "huge" spaces, including a "lush backyard" complete with large pool and jacuzzi. Other homes in the same Los Altos neighborhood have sold for at least $3 million.
Cue has been with Apple for 25 years, and currently holds the title of vice president as one of the company's top brass. He's overseen a number of significant projects for the company during his tenure, most notably playing a major role in the creation of its first online store in 1998, the launch of the iTunes Store in 2003, and the iOS App Store in 2008.
Prior to joining Apple, Cue earned a bachelor's degree in Computer Science and Economics from Duke University.
While the value of Cue's home on the open market has yet to be decided, we do have an idea of how much an hour of his time is worth. Last month, Cue participated in a charity auction offering a lunch date with him along with a 13-inch MacBook Air, and bidding reached north of $40,000 before the auction closed at an undisclosed price. The funds went to benefit the National Association of Basketball Coaches Foundation.

I'm impressed, the house is modest for someone in his position.
Nice house. Love the back yard. Cue is asking less than $4M for a house on an 18,000 sq ft lot. Jony Ive paid $17M for a house in San Francisco that's on a 5,400 sq ft lot with basically no yard. Crazy how expensive real estate is in the big cities. Would be interesting to see what it looks like when he's done remodeling it. http://www.businessinsider.com/photos-of-apples-jony-ives-new-home-2012-9?op=1 [IMG]http://i61.tinypic.com/28cjdw0.jpg[/IMG]
Very nice, reflecting excellent taste and simplicity; very Apple-ish:)

Trust the Brit to want a brick house!

[/quote] When I first saw photos it reminded me of something you'd see in England. What's hilarious is he bought this house in 2012 but for some reason Business Insider decided to recycle the story (and thus others picked it up) a week or so ago. All over Twitter people are making fun of the decor not realizing the photos are of the house before he bought it and that he's spending $2M to remodel it. :lol:
