Towering redwoods guard the home, and cast down streams of light upon a huge backyard, a vineyard, and a small seasonal brook. The 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms are smartly spaced, with 1 bedroom suitable for the teen, elder, or office use. Gleaming hardwood floors draw you through the house and connect seamlessly into the beautiful Northern California style landscaping just beyond the numerous dual-paned picture windows. The kitchen draws upon this creative flow, and opens to the living room, much like the home is nestled in this verdant glen, with an impeccably updated kitchen and garden window. As for the primary bedroom, you’ll awaken to serenity and a view of more than a yard-a space for your senses to relax, or more active use.
