Perched atop a scenic ridge just 12-15 minutes from the heart of Willits, this truly one-of-a-kind 20 acre estate blends thoughtful custom design with breathtaking natural beauty. Oriented with a purposeful south-facing, west-to-east design, the home captures refreshing coastal breezes in the summer while maximizing passive solar warmth in the winter, an ideal balance of comfort and efficiency. From nearly every primary living space, including the kitchen, dining room, living room, and upper levels, enjoy sweeping panoramic views of Mt. Sanhedrin and the picturesque Little Lake Valley below. The main residence offers approximately 2,264SqFt of well-planned living space across two and a half stories, featuring 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths. A welcoming vestibule entry opens to expansive living areas designed for both everyday comfort and entertaining, including a large living room, den, and dedicated office space.

The main level showcases refinished solid red oak flooring, while the upper levels and staircase feature new carpeting. The kitchen is equipped with a new propane range, rare Verde Fuerco granite countertops, and distinctive madrone wood cabinetry, all flowing into a spacious dining area that frames the incredible views. Additional highlights include a high-efficiency propane furnace, new roof, fresh exterior paint, and a generous 225 sq. ft. pantry/mudroom. The home is serviced by PG&E and an abundant well. Enhancing the versatility of the property is an attached 465 sq. ft. studio with a separate entrance ideal for guests, rental income, or a private workspace featuring a half bath, hot and cold water sink, and wall-mounted propane heater. A separate 600 sq. ft. rental cabin offers additional income potential or multi-generational living, complete with its own private setting, full bath, on-demand hot water heater, propane heat, new flooring, and septic system. Further expanding the possibilities is a detached 800 sq. ft. studio/workshop with utilities in place, including water, propane, and septic line access. This flexible space could serve as an art studio, workshop, or be re imagined into additional living quarters. The sellers thoughtfully designed both the home and surrounding grounds to maximize privacy, usability, and the stunning natural setting.
