Tucked into a lush, private landscape, this extraordinary residence feels worlds away—an urban haven wrapped in layers of bamboo, sculptural ornamental grasses with the movement of coastal dunes, majestic Japanese maples, sculptural pines + silvery Mediterranean olive trees. The setting is immersive, textured + incredibly serene, with greenery creating a rare sense of privacy from nearly every vantage point. Birdsong carries through the gardens, the landscape feels alive with movement + the entire property hums with a happy, natural energy. A striking metal roof and clean architectural lines give the home a quietly modern presence. Owned and loved by the same boat woodworker for 40 years, the integrity, craftsmanship + heart of this property are felt deeply throughout. Pristine custom woodwork, beautifully considered details + sculptural light sconces speak to years of care and artistry. Soaring ceilings amplify the sense of volume + golden light. The lower-level woodworking shop is an extraordinary creative studio—ideal for makers, artists + anyone inspired by hands-on creativity. Light filters through the landscape, outdoor spaces unfold like intimate garden rooms + every window frames something beautiful. Thoughtfully composed, the flow between inside and out feels natural, effortless + deeply zen. This is more than a home—it’s a hidden sanctuary, rich in texture, privacy + provenance, with a warm, joyful energy and a sense of place that is almost impossible to replicate.
