Nestled within the serene embrace of Greenwood Ridge, this home stands as a testament to architectural creativity and harmony with nature. Encompassing 17 acres of lush woodland, the residence is a reimagined sanctuary, with material sourced from a church and transformed by an artist's vision into a dwelling of open spaces and natural light. The interior boasts exquisite wood flooring, robust beams, and a plethora of windows, culminating in a cupola that crowns the structure. The design philosophy celebrates the infusion of light and the amplification of nature's chorus, with birdsong as the prevailing symphony. To the east, the landscape offers a canvas for potential panoramic views, requiring only minimal sculpting of the mature foliage. Complementing the main structure, a quaint guest cottage doubles as a creative studio amidst terraced gardens. The home's greenhouse room serves dual purposes: a nurturing ground for plant life and a natural heat reservoir during the colder months. Beneath, a sweet outdoor shower rests against an old redwood stump, plus ample storage and accessible plumbing underscore the thoughtful consideration given to every facet of this home. It is a space not just built, but crafted for inspired living. Anderson Valley and Elk are but 30 minutes away.
