Two of the four bedrooms and one and a half baths, with its own kitchen and living room is easily separated for dual living if desired, as this space is permitted as an ADU. A detached auxiliary structure, well-suited for an artist studio, allows for additional imagination. The spacious rooftop deck, complete with outside kitchen will make dining al fresco in the trees a one-of-a-kind experience.
The home's finishes were inspired by natural, organic, and artisanal elements, featuring: handmade Moroccan clay tiles, 19th century reclaimed French terracotta tiles, hand-sculpted terracotta lighting fixtures from London, and custom white oak floors throughout. The modern exterior of the home is accented perfectly by the hundred-year-old oaks, mature olive, and fruit trees. The stonework found throughout the property was created to follow the natural contours of the landscape and highlight the greenery of this picture-perfect setting. The land beckons you to enjoy quintessential indoor-outdoor living.
