This home is ideal for compound living with the single level hacienda on the main floor. A 2004 remodel of the adobe included a significant addition that won the TSP Green Building Award for Best Sustainable Project 2004. The addition expanded the main floor adobe and created two other vertically stacked living areas. On the lowest level of the addition is the stunning stoneclad 1700 sq. ft. open floor plan Stonehouse casita. With its large living room with fireplace, open kitchen area, 2 baths and spacious bedroom. It is ideal for guests or family and can be accessed through the main home or via a separate entry driveway. In between these two separate living areas there is a spectacular two story high open floor plan Studio. The versatile Studio has gorgeous beamed ceilings, wood floors, ample art wall space, bathroom, closet or storage area and a nanodoor accessing a half circular balcony capturing views up and down the canyon with incredible sunset and remote ocean views.
Inspired by Lotusland the home is set in lush landscaping, winding stone paths, gently splashing fountains, specimen succulents, artistic surprises, and drought-tolerant plants, offering a private oasis of tranquility. It is dotted with potting sheds, and accessory structures for storage or workshop.
The entire house is solar powered, and built and sited for passive heating and cooling. The addition has radiant floor heating and is well insulated utilizing tiers of stone clad levels resulting in very thick walls and visual integration into the site.
The neighborhood is 5 minutes from downtown and shopping yet offers oak dotted hillsides, natural canyons, and glorious mountain and ocean views. It is beloved for its walking, cycling, and a laid back lifestyle. The Rose Garden, Sheffield dog park, Parma Park, Rocky Nook Park, the Botanic Gardens and the Natural History Museum are gathering places for the neighbors. Avoid the freeway and settle down to relax and enjoy your new better life.
