The home offers a perfect remote work environment; peace, quiet and excellent high speed internet service.
Step inside the light-filled, elegant interior and you’ll find soaring vaulted combed spruce ceilings and other exquisite wood features.
The architecture is rich with exposed wooden beams, high ceilings, and warm natural light that fills the open space. Everything in the room whispers comfort, care, and intentional living. But what really makes the scene unforgettable is the sunset spilling in through the windows.
Walls of windows flood the interior with natural light and frame the sweeping vistas beyond.
Golden-orange hues stretch across the horizon, casting a soft glow on the wooden floors and bathing the entire room in a honeyed light. Through the glass doors and wraparound windows, you can see layers of distant hills fading into dusky blues with the sun resting gently above.
"Light. Wood. Silence. The day exhales.”
The dining area welcomes one and all to sit for awhile.
It’s not just a home—it’s a sanctuary with a front-row seat to nature’s nightly masterpiece.

Welcome to this Japanese inspired retreat
Enjoy panoramic views. Fire sprinklers are in place for the wrap around deck.
The horizon glows with a warm glow—from golden amber to deepening blue—casting a gentle light over the vivid green grass and surrounding trees.
There's no sound here but the faint rustle of wind through trees, maybe the distant call of a hawk, maybe silence itself. The deck offers a place where you can feel the presence of the land.
The house sits gently within the landscape, its design harmonizing with nature rather than interrupting it. The architecture, inspired by Japanese influences feels intentional, timeless, and deeply grounded.
Nothing as special as the morning sun streaming through the redwoods
Meticulous landscaping has sculpted separate garden sanctuaries, each with its own exquisite charm. Antique roses draped over trellises delight the senses.
Large functional outbuilding, plumbed for a sink is currently used for storage and gardening supplies. The enclosed wood storage sits next door
Vibrant Japanese maple wearing her fall skirt

Raised beds compliment the year round vegetable garden area.
In addition to the home, the property includes a 700 sq ft yurt with its own solar system. The yurt has its own entrance and is privately located away from the home.
Wonderful space for family and friends.
Lovely
For those chilly evenings
Beautiful woodwork, custom design - a very special bathhouse.

An orchard with stunning views afar, below and on high.
A bounty of 50 fruit trees promises a harvest of nature's sweetest offerings year after year - apple, cherry, persimmon, walnut, peach, apricot, quince, fig, and plum.
A special,outdoor area provided by nature
The 39-acre property has been carefully managed to create a park-like setting, with much of the vegetation cleared to promote fire safety and forest health.

Power System: Solar electric system as shown below: 6 kW (nominal) solar system, 7kW (nominal) Cummins propane generator to recharge batteries when sunshine is absent in winter. 6 Lithium Ferrous Phosphate batteries that require next to no maintenance.
