Description

Once upon a time in Larkspur, Frank Pixley, one of California's early influencers, chose this enchanting site to build his country estate. He named it Owls Wood. Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac just minutes to town, this historic property dates back to the late 1800s. Affectionately known as The Honeymoon Cottage, this is the last remaining structure of the Pixley estate. Time has taken it's toll (the cottage is uninhabitable) but echoes of the original charm remain including a gracefully curved...Once upon a time in Larkspur, Frank Pixley, one of California's early influencers, chose this enchanting site to build his country estate. He named it Owls Wood. Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac just minutes to town, this historic property dates back to the late 1800s. Affectionately known as The Honeymoon Cottage, this is the last remaining structure of the Pixley estate. Time has taken it's toll (the cottage is uninhabitable) but echoes of the original charm remain including a gracefully curved ceiling and a front porch. Set on a gently sloping quarter acre parcel with all day sun, this magical property invites a new steward to restore, reimagine or recreate something truly special. The canvas is rich with potential...the location is prime, the light is beautiful and the town is wonderful. The next chapter awaits...
