Downstairs is another bedroom with an ensuite bathroom and a giant workshop with exterior doors and storage. Lots of outdoor spaces and big deck. On the sunny side of Porter Gulch, with a bridge over Porter Creek. House is set back behind a large front yard with native plants and flowers. Lots of parking and room. The yoga/office gazebo and the guest house are behind the main house, among the redwoods. This is a truly special property in a terrific location.
