This spacious level-in, two-story house is perfectly situated for peace, comfort, and harmony with its surrounding nature. A grove of giant redwoods is the first thing you’ll notice as you enter this home. Seen through a wall of windows, the trees create a restful setting that affords privacy and offers cooling shade on hot summer days. The light and airy living room with its soaring ceiling provides an inviting and generous space for informal entertaining, a spectacular fireplace serving as its focal point. The kitchen and living room areas flow out to a spacious wrap-around deck perfect for indoor and outdoor entertaining. Downstairs, you will find four generously proportioned bedrooms. The primary ensuite bedroom features custom built-in cherry cabinetry and Arts & Crafts trim. An office just beyond the ensuite bedroom was designed by a Cal professor Peter Bickel, as his study. It features copious built-bookshelves and large working spaces.
