About This Home
As of September 2018The famous designer Le Corbusier once said, "The home should be the treasure chest of living." This modern, sophisticated and elegant country house was designed for entertaining and for comfort and convenience in quieter times of repose and rejuvenation. Astonishing views of Capitola & Monterey Bay are the centerpiece to 45 incredible acres, largely accessible by a meandering trail/ road running throughout the property. Day trips to one of many pristine local beaches are minutes away. Markets, boutiques and dining are located within a couple of miles. The glorious grounds nourish the heart, body and soul. There are 3 bedrooms on the main floor, each with an en-suite bathroom. Upstairs, you'll find an entertainment room, office, or whatever you choose to make of it. The property is well-suited to agriculturists, equestrians, vintners, adventurers, and those who appreciate breathtaking privacy- a rarity, these days.
