Enter the piazza and enjoy al fresco dining for ten under the pergola. Wisteria and Matilija poppies create a peaceful atmosphere. The property also has thirty mature oak trees, a non-olive-bearing tree orchard, and beehives just down the path. The spacious kitchen and dining area overlook the east courtyard and a spa is situated facing the western hills. The kitchen features a French limestone island, six burner gas Wolf range, and a walk-in pantry. For larger gatherings, there's a custom dining table that can seat fourteen.
The living room/family room boasts impressive 18 foot ceilings and a 10 foot south-facing window, bathing the space in natural light. You'll be captivated by the intimate "bookshelf wealth" atmosphere, curated for your collection of books, design objects, and art pieces. The double-sided fireplace adds a cozy ambiance and warmth to both the living room and kitchen. Snuggle up next to the fireplace or bask in the solarium for a perfect indoor day.
There are three light-filled bedrooms, all with outstanding views, and three bathrooms. A textile studio, for inspiration, can be converted to a fourth bedroom. Custom statement lighting designed by the architect can be found throughout the home.
A solar system is connected to the electrical grid, along with three kilowatt hour batteries for sustainability. An oversized detached two car garage has a 50-amp electric car charging station for two cars.
The area has a rich history with an old mission and a charming downtown. Movies like Hitchcock's Vertigo were filmed at the Mission San Juan Bautista around the corner. The community offers vineyards and wineries of San Benito County for tasting, and the Pinnacles National Park for hiking or watching baby condors learn to soar. And don't forget about the Fremont Peak Observatory offering great views of the night sky.
This serene tranquil retreat is sure to recharge your batteries and inspire your creativity. San Juan Bautista feels a world away, yet it is right around the corner— less than an hour from Silicon Valley, Monterey, Carmel, and Santa Cruz.
