Wow! Fully remodeled "mountain modern" ranch on coveted Tunitas Creek Road. Picturesque creekside redwood setting mindfully thinned to maximize natural light. Tons of outdoor entertaining space including large redwood deck, dining patio, creekside meditation pad, koi pond, and much more. New satellite internet service. Electric gated driveway. Interior seamlessly blends the character of a mountain house with clean contemporary finishes. Bedroom/office on main level. Chef's kitchen opens to expansive south - facing deck which overlooks majestic Tunitas Creek and the endless redwood forest. Upstairs has 2nd living space, guest bedroom, and ensuite master with generous walk-in closet. Ground-floor in-law has its own entrance and view deck lending itself to many uses. Conveniently located about 7 minutes from the beach and about 15 minutes from Half Moon Bay. Homes like this simply do not come up often. You'd better get out here soon. :)
