A very unique and overwhelmingly usable property. The 2 story brown house is in need of extensive repair and restoration. There is a majestic view from this house and the porch/yard outside. Solar. The Garage has some interior improvements but the condition is old and dirty but with a thorough cleaning it could be brought back to life. Repairs and upgrades are needed. Massive amount of propane storage and propane refill/delivery in place. The improvements are on record with the tax assessor and there are no violations on the property. There are 2 GIGANTIC flat pads along the main Summit Road with 2 separate driveways (one cement and one dirt). They are large enough for multiple large barns, animals grazing and corals, spacious recreational fields, many campsites, etc. Water leads to them from an underground water tank along the main road. There is a cement water tank currently used as a gold fish pond. There is a very recent survey. Madrones and Fig trees Zoned SU (Special Use)
Let's just get this out of the way, the view here is ridiculous. The kind that interrupts conversations. Someones halfway through a sentence, glances out the window & suddenly the whole room goes quiet for a second. Some days its crystal clear across the valley. Other days clouds drift through the mountains. At night, the lights below start to sparkle. The main living spaces were clearly designed around it. The kitchen & family room sit in the center of the home & naturally become the gathering spot. Someones cooking, someones leaning on the counter, & before long everyone has drifted toward the windows again. Outside, two large connected decks make entertaining easy & the hot tub tends to become the evening destination once the valley lights come on. A garden path leads past raised beds to a small vineyard, giving the property its own little slice of Napa, just with ocean views. The primary suite is grand & positioned perfectly toward the valley & ocean beyond, complete with a see-through fireplace & a copper soaking tub that tends to turn five minutes into an hour. There's also an office with the same outlook, which means you'll never need a generic Zoom background again. Space, privacy, fresh air & a setting that somehow manages to steal the show every single time.
