    What's special

    Peaceful Samarkand oasis -- back on the market with refreshed ADU & landscaping. The main residence is a charming 1,394sf Cal Cottage with 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, cool built-ins, and loads of light. Enter through a garden gate into the spacious living room, with stucco fireplace and picture windows framing views of mountains, treetops, and even a little sliver of the sea. The living areas flow effortlessly to an immense limestone deck with multiple spaces for outdoor socializing or relaxation. The cheery cook's kitchen retains its early '50s charm and includes Wolf range, sleek European hood and loads of storage. Both bedrooms access the outside: The primary bedroom has a French door to a private garden courtyard, and the guest room opens to the back deck with great mountain views. The lower level of the home consists of a permitted 1-bd/1-ba ADU (about 900sf) with its own two entrances, a brick fireplace and separate in-home laundry, plus a beautiful hardwood deck at the front door. (This level could be combined with the upstairs living spaces to function as a 3bd/2ba home with large family room.) The living room features a wall of windows with mesmerizing views of the back yard, which offers plenty of options: play areas, organic urban farm or formal gardens. Additional features of this wonderful property include owned solar panels and newer roof (2019), updated electrical, a storage basement big enough for a home gym and your wine cellar, water catchment system, and an attached 2-car garage. Located on one of the best streets in Samarkand, "The Land of Heart's Desire."
