Seeing is believing! A whimsical and magical forest compound. 1,400 sq ft home blending classic redwood cabin charm with a more modern 20' by 20' 'multipurpose room' lined with sumptuous redwood paneling inviting inward and outward focus with plenty of easy places to rest your eyes both near and far; including a platform deck reaching into the sylvan setting like a treehouse. A vertical grain Douglas fir floor is waxed with a dark reddish tone to match the unfinished old growth redwood boards in the walls and ceiling in older parts of the cabin. Impressive river rock fireplace, wood stove and central forced air heating to keep cozy. The kitchen offers stainless appliances, classic checkerboard tile and a vaulted ceiling. Two additional "sleeping cabins" could be fashioned as a writing studio, woodworking shop or guest cottage. A beefy two car garage and walk-in basement for ample storage. Bordered by conserved land along the Butano Ridge to the south, the home site is part of 1920s Dearborn Park subdivision, a large logging parcel dating back to the 1880s. A few old trees still remain alongside healthy second growth including redwoods, tan oaks and Douglas fir, but also mountain oaks, the token madrone, bay laurel, bigleaf maple and of course, huckleberries galore.
