With lots of trees, a babbling brook and private patio, you will feel as if you're on vacation yet still be only minutes away from fine restaurants, museums, theaters, shopping and city life. This jewel box is truly a magical space... think rustic luxury! The space is well laid out, and comfortable. Featuring an updated kitchen with ample counter space and storage. The first floor bathroom has been updated with a soaking tub and shower. In the living area you will find a tiny nook perfect for a desk or eating area, situated adjacent a window with calming views of the mountains and rocky yard. Upstairs find a convenient half bathroom and two small bedrooms, both with window a/c, cozy (electric heater) fireplaces and wool berber carpeting. The house gets plenty of light but there are window coverings throughout in case you like it darker. All of the windows look out to Mother Nature and you will feel like you're in a tree house with the abundance of wildlife and birds. Tucked away in the back, the patio/deck is very private and quiet. There's room for a hammock, lounge furniture, umbrella, fire-pit, gas BBQ grill and dining table. The semi-private front porch seating area is set at the end of a long driveway (parking for max. 2 small cars, tandem) with great mountain views and is a great place to sit and watch the sun fade and the squirrels play. At the other end of the driveway is a creek, which you can hear year round from just about any room in the house. If you are seeking to connect with nature yet be close to everything, this is the perfect place for you. The home is small but well suited for 1-3 quiet people who are comfortable in close quarters.
