Down a serene country lane yet only minutes to shopping and dining is this classic mid-century retreat that may well define “California Casual Living”. The rare combination of one-level living, seamless indoor/outdoor flow and a serene setting on over 1 acre of private grounds makes this home a rare find. The well-preserved classic details will take you back to another era while the timeless floorplan offers a simple canvas to re-imagine the spaces with contemporary finishes. Built for easy living and designed for memorable entertaining, this one-of-a-kind property was a forever home for its current owners and on the market for the first time. Welcome to 5424 Fernhoff!
