One of the most unique acreage opportunities you will find, this property features two separate homes set within a truly creative and inspiring setting. The original residence is built on a rock foundation and showcases artistic character throughout, including Saltillo tile floors, beamed and vaulted ceilings, and a loft-style art space that adds both charm and functionality. The second dwelling, originally a garage, has been thoughtfully converted into a recently updated two-bedroom, one-bath home.Together, the two residences offer a combined 1,349 square feet of living space (approximately 766 and 583 square feet) and sit on 1.6 acres filled with mature landscaping, eclectic details, and an impressive amount of storage. Multiple storage sheds, a shipping container/delivery truck, and a former outhouse provide endless possibilities for creative, practical, or hobby use. The distinctive and eccentric elements woven throughout the property are far too numerous to capture fully in words and are best appreciated in person.A pump house located between the two homes connects to a single-car carport serving the rock foundation home and also functions as the laundry area. The layout makes this property ideal for an artist retreat, Airbnb setup, or owner-occupied living with the benefit of rental income from the second residence. The parcel offers excellent access and privacy with two separate driveways, each with its own gated entrance. In addition to the carport at the pump house, the two-bedroom residence features its own attached two-car carport.While navigation systems may route you along dirt roads, access from Bramble off Highway 89 provides paved travel until the final two turns, totaling approximately a quarter mile of well-maintained dirt road, leading you into this fully fenced and truly artistic oasis.
