Straight out of a fairytale, this one-of-a-kind straw bale home is a masterpiece of architecture and design.

The entire second floor is dedicated to the serene bedroom, complete with custom built-ins and windows that frame breathtaking mountain views. The home features artistic nods to the moonrise from perfectly positioned. Behind the scenes amenities include owned solar, new batteries, high speed internet & several detached storage sheds, one of which could become a nice guest suite. Access is easy with a fully paved road and turnouts. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to embrace off-grid living with majestic mountain views that sustainability blends beautifully with nature.

This property is a charming 2 bedroom, 2 bath home located in the scenic Santa Cruz Mountains, near Loch Lomond Recreation Area. The upper floor features 832 square feet of living space, with vaulted open beam ceilings, skylights, and hardwood floors. The seller worked from home and wanted a more open concept, so they removed a wall to a bedroom upstairs, which can be used as a flex space now or replace the wall/do barn doors to have it enclosed again. The wall furnace and wood stove provide heating options, ensuring comfort during colder months. The modern kitchen is equipped with beautiful cabinetry, gleaming counters and a dishwasher for convenience.  The living area opens to a private deck with views of the surrounding forest, providing a serene space to relax. The large windows allow you to bathe in light and forest views.  This home has a covered parking area for 2 cars.
