About This Home
Sited on 5 sunny acres in one of Occidental's banana belts, secured behind an automated gate and surrounded by majestic Redwoods & Firs, this serene 3 bedroom, 3 bath home offers exceptional indoor-outdoor living and a rare sense of privacy and space. Thoughtfully designed to embrace its natural setting, the home is filled with light and inviting spaces that flow seamlessly to the outdoors. The main living area begins with the living room, featuring a vaulted redwood ceiling and a cozy wood stove, creating a warm focal point for relaxing and entertaining. Expansive windows provide dramatic views over the property, and invite tons of natural light into the room. The kitchen features an efficient layout, with plenty of storage, stainless steel appliances and quartz countertops. An adjoining dining area affords wonderful outlooks to the mature Redwoods and Fir that frame the meadow, and direct access to a west-facing deck for chillaxing and alfresco dining. Both kitchen and dining area feature a vaulted ceiling of clear redwood. Completing the main living area is a sequestered home office with plenty of shelving, and lovely views. The private area is composed of three bedrooms, each made special with a unique vantage of the surrounding meadow and forest. The principle bedroom has a private deck and ensuite bath. The ground floor features plenty of storage, a mud room, and laundry facilities, including a utility sink, and a storage room / workshop. Extensive upgrades provide comfort, efficiency, and peace of mind, including electrical updates, MYSA remote thermostats, new bedroom lighting, and Nest smoke detectors. The home is equipped with solar power, backup batteries, a whole-home generator, and a new propane tank, ensuring reliable energy year-round. Comfort has been enhanced with an electric heat pump for heat and AC, along with a new remotely controlled thermostat. The home has 2 car covered parking including 2 EV chargers in the carport and a video doorbell for modern convenience and security. A short drive to downtown destinations in Occidental, and close proximity to Sebastopol and the Sonoma coast. You'll be hard-pressed to find a comparable property at this price. See it!
