Contemporary Mountain Retreat Backing Lincoln National Forest Designed by renowned architect Richard Jost and built in 2010, this striking residence showcases Jost’s signature contemporary style and exceptional craftsmanship. Privately situated in the serene Young Canyon area of the Sacramento Mountains, the property spans over 8 acres and borders the Lincoln National Forest, offering an unmatched sense of seclusion and natural beauty. The home features a unique and highly functional floor plan centered around a spacious great room that seamlessly blends the open-concept living, dining, and kitchen areas—perfect for both everyday living and entertaining. Off the main living area is a versatile space ideal for use as a media room or den, along with a full bathroom and guest bedroom. On the opposite side, the great room opens to an inviting outdoor deck and breezeway that leads to a private primary suite. The primary bedroom is generously sized and accompanied by a luxurious bathroom featuring a dual-sink vanity, a large walk-in shower, and an expansive walk-in closet. Laundry room is adjacent as well. Outdoor living is elevated with a fabulous deck that includes a built-in firepit, gas grill, and exhaust fan. A separate front patio houses a relaxing hot tub. Below the home, you'll find a two-car garage and additional storage space. Built with Mickey Block exterior walls, the home is highly energy-efficient and low maintenance. It draws water from Young Spring water rights and includes an additional rainwater catchment system. Each water type is on it's own system and storage tank. An additional structure on the property—originally the main residence built in 1994—is currently used for storage. With its own septic system, it holds great potential for conversion into a charming guest house. Take a look at the 3D tour and schedule your in-person tour today.
