Sitting atop a near 13-acre sloping meadow that offers incomparable westward vistas, this magnificent home, located within the community of Tehama and only a short distance from Monterey and Carmel-by-the-Sea, is almost inconsequential compared to the splendor of its natural surroundings. Understanding this, designers chose to build the house with the outdoors in mind, incorporating natural stone elements on the exterior, as well as using them to provide textural warmth to the interior of the American Craftsman style architecture. Though this home introduces itself with grand and rustic impressions, it also has all the comfort and amenities of a state-of-the-art, contemporary home. With built-in features like smart home technology, Internet accessible Colorado vNet Lighting System and for the eco-conscious, a 44-panel solar photovoltaic array that provides up to 13,000kw hours of annual production, this estate has the artisan quality of a mountain retreat within an architecturally stunning residence. Even with all the top of the line technologic comforts, it is the view of the sloping, verdant hillside that is irreplaceable.
