Remarks

Motivated seller. This extraordinary retreat delivers a rare balance of privacy, beauty, and access. Perched above the treetops with breathtaking 40-mile views, the home lives in harmony with its natural surroundings, offering a true sense of escape just minutes from Highway 17. Expansive picture windows flood the interiors with light and frame sweeping redwood and ridgeline vistas, creating a calm, sanctuary-like atmosphere throughout. The kitchen is warm and inviting, with granite countertops, custom cabinetry, and high-end appliances, flowing seamlessly into an intimate dining area surrounded by panoramic views. The spa-inspired primary bath offers a serene place to unwind, while outdoor living is exceptional. An expansive deck with a hot tub, raised garden beds, and a one-of-a-kind bench wrapped around majestic redwoods creates unforgettable spaces to relax and recharge. Meticulously maintained and thoughtfully improved, this home is ideal for remote work or commuting to Silicon Valley or Santa Cruz, a place to reset, recharge, and live above it all. Not just a home, but a shift in how you live, where space, light, and perspective become part of your everyday experience.
