Commissioned and featured by Sunset Magazine as a true architectural marvel, The Sunset Magazine Idea House flawlessly blends its inspiration from Steinbeck Country's rustic roots with a luxurious modern style designed by Thomas Bateman Hood to perfectly frame the incredible ocean and mountain views. Located on ~1.75 acres within Monterra's prestigious gated community, the property is available for the first time since the original owners purchased it. It includes 3 main structures and integrates sustainable design principles and innovative features. Its open-plan layout utilizes an effortless indoor-outdoor flow, with expansive windows framing the surrounding views of mature oak trees, the Santa Lucia Mountains, and Monterey Bay to the west. Designed for comfort and eco-friendliness, the house incorporates recycled materials such as reclaimed barn wood from a local stagecoach station, energy-efficient systems, and drought-tolerant landscaping. The interior exudes a relaxed yet sophisticated vibe, showcasing contemporary furnishings and artistic touches. Outdoor spaces include a spacious deck, fire pit, pizza oven, built-in BBQ, bocce ball court, producing olive grove, and multiple seating areas nestled between the native plant gardens, encouraging outdoor living.
