About This Home

As of November 2018

This 3 BDR, meticulously restored organic Usonian mid-century modern home, inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright, sits on a serene 2 acre lot in a quiet town surrounded by evergreen trees, fruit tree orchard and a 1/4 acre organic garden with raised redwood beds. Updates in the last 3 yrs include: Prof. installed cypress roof w/50-100 year shingles, concrete floors with radiant heat, electrical, plumbing, insulation, windows, appliances, and a rebuilt atrium. This property also includes a separate 500 sq. ft heated studio that has a concrete heated floor. Other nice upgrades include a full house water filtration system, underground drainage pipes around house and LED lighting throughout. The modern Triangle Tube SS modulating natural gas boiler operates at 96% efficiency which makes for monthly avg. gas bill of $100. Quality upgrades have been done for you and will last for many many years. Too much to mention so come take a look for yourself.
