The kitchen is both beautiful and functional, with rich cherry cabinetry (some glass-front), granite countertops, a sage subway tile backsplash, and premium Bosch appliances, including a gas cooktop, double ovens, and integrated dishwasher. A coffee nook and countertop bar create inviting spaces to gather. Downstairs, find custom built-in shelving, track lighting, and a long hallway ideal for an art gallery or display space. A versatile bonus room serves perfectly as an art studio, office, playroom, or craft area. Additional highlights include central A/C, a finished garage, raised garden beds, detached storage, and a fully fenced yard. Among the home’s most enchanting features is a winding timber staircase leading into a private forest sanctuary—ideal for forest bathing or quiet exploration under the giant sequoias.
