A private lane winds its way through soaring trees along Coleman Valley Creek to an expansive open meadow. In this secluded setting is a home, a workshop and a barn/shop. The farmhouse offers views of the forest, meadow and the pastureland beyond. The cozy living room has a wood stove. A glass slider leads from the kitchen to a deck. One bedroom and the garage are on this level. The hand-crafted railing on the stairwell leads to a loft, an updated bathroom, and the second bedroom. With good separation from the house, the well-built and well-designed work shop/guest cabin is attractive, efficient and comfortable. A large deck offers tranquil views, and a great spot for a hot tub. Under the covered part of the deck are washer/dryer hookups. The guest cabin has Fiber Optic High-Speed Internet. The substantial barn has a concrete pad, loft, and a row of dual pane windows that let in abundant light. For nighttime, there's ample lighting. Barn doors at one end slide open. An attached shed with shelving runs the length of the shop on the far side. This sublime setting features impressive rock outcroppings, citrus trees and gardens. Next door is 320 acres of open space pastureland with occasional cattle roaming by. This magical West County compound is less than 2 miles from the charming hamlet of Occidental.
