Description
FULLY PERMITTED AS A SHORT TERM VACATION RENTAL, this contemporary cottage was designed by former Volcano architect, Boone Morrison, and custom built by his craftsman builder, Matt Luera. It has been called "a little jewel box" and lives up to that name! The variety of natural woods and the use of Ohia posts for structural support all illustrate the quality of construction.

Views to the surrounding forest, the changing weather and sun filtering through the trees, can be enjoyed from every room. Skylights provide good natural lighting throughout the day, plus views to the night sky if the covers are opened. The custom designed covers diffuse the bright sunlight and insulate for warmth. A lofted area, accessible by a "ships" ladder, serves as a sleeping loft in the tree tops or a quiet getaway spot. The Secretary desk in main living area was also custom built from redwood. Kitchen cabinets are cherry and flooring in main living areas are carpet or hardwood bamboo. All this and a wood-burning fireplace complete this pretty picture!

Don't miss the extra hidden storage available in the Living Area as well as the storage loft above garage. Out the rear door of the garage is a pump/pressure tank shed to protect and secure the filter system which includes a full house UV system. Dual catchments provide ample water. The system also includes a stand pipe at the front of the driveway for fire response or water delivery if needed. A rare but important feature valued by insurance carriers.

Take a walk to the back of the lot, a magical spot with a mix of sunny, cleared areas for gardening as well as native forest. The back of the property was never developed and offers opportunity as the 2.5 acre lot is zoned RS-20,000.

Don't wait as this "jewel" won't last with the quality built custom design, vacation rental permit and development potential. Sold "turnkey", see inventory at tool bar.
