About This Home
As of May 2025Set back from the street on a quiet cul-de-sac, this iconic 1957 Buff & Hensman mid-century treehouse has been lovingly renovated by its current owners with sensitivity to its original post and beam architecture. Past a two-car garage, a private, enchanting pathway leads to the house, instantly ensconcing you in nature. Upon entering the home, find a wood-beamed ceiling and floor-to-ceiling windows, all surrounding the open living, dining, and kitchen areas, with access to a sizable deck spanning the entirety of the main level and views of the backyard. Through a skylight-filled hallway, two bedrooms, a full bath, and powder lead to the sumptuous primary suite, with its own bright bathroom, walk-in closet, and outdoor access. Downstairs, a fabulous guest suite and generous flex spaces open to the backyard, with multiple niches and amphitheater-like built-in seating for the ultimate in indoor-outdoor living. With interiors by Tiffany Howell of Night Palm and landscape design by Sarita Jaccard, this is the perfect retreat, rooted in tranquility and ease.
