Enjoy this treetop hideaway nestled into the hillside. A peaceful path through the garden and natural vegetation leads to the front door. Original owner was a visionary, collector, artist with a whimsical sensibility. He built this humble home as his sanctuary where he could partake in the magnificent views or enjoy solitude and respite outside next to the flowing water spring. At only 576 square feet, this recently refreshed home is truly "open concept", with the woodstove taking center stage. A French door takes you out to the cantilevered deck where you feel like you are on top of the world. Consider installing exterior stairs at either side of the house for alternative access up to the entrance. There is room for storage under the house, as well as a metal shed and a wooden shed. Whether you are seeking refuge, a place to begin or wind down, a home to let your creativity thrive, or looking for an investment opportunity (vacation rental ???), this could be your found treasure.
