Peace and quiet aren't an amenity,they define the whole property. The redwoods do the work, filtering the light, softening the sound, holding the air cool on a warm afternoon. The main cabin was rebuilt 17 years ago by a European craftsman, and it shows. The floor plan is simple and open, warm wood throughout, with windows that pull the forest inside from every direction. A sleeping loft sits above, reached by a built in ladder, tucked up under the roofline where you fall asleep under the stars. Out front, a deck faces Mount Tam becomes the main living space from Spring through Fall. Just below sits a second structure, long known as the meditation hut, waiting for someone with the vision to rehab and reimagine it. The second parcel is a vacant lot full of possibility.
