The Main Residence
Tucked behind a private gate on 1.25 acres, this extraordinary brown shingle estate blends artisanal craftsmanship with laid-back California luxury. Designed by M. Dean Jones and completed in 2008, the home is rich with detail—hand-hewn antique beams salvaged from an Ohio hay barn, stone fireplaces with surrounds from Montana, and old-growth redwood posts reclaimed from a historic Fortuna lumber yard. Every material was thoughtfully chosen, every finish intentional.
The main house features 3 bedrooms + office, 2.5 baths, and 8 zones of radiant heat beneath ¾-inch hardwood floors. The open-concept kitchen is anchored by a 19-foot island topped with treated Carrara marble countertops (etch-proof, thanks to Fox Marble), a custom Sub-Zero fridge, 6-burner Wolf range with grill top, Thermador downdraft vent, and Miele dishwasher. A walk-in pantry and built-in desk complete the space. Formal and casual dining areas, a large living room, and a den all open onto a Vermont bluestone patio with fireplace and sweeping views—an ideal layout for everyday living and memorable entertaining.
One of the home's most magical spaces lies just below the main level: a private, climate-controlled wine cellar and tasting room, set behind a stone archway with concrete surround. It's an inviting, intimate space to host friends and linger long after the last glass.
Upstairs, the luxe owner’s suite offers vaulted ceilings, an oversized walk-in closet, and a spa-like bathroom with a soaking tub. A stone fireplace adds warmth and ambiance, while French doors open to a private balcony with sunrise views over Richardson Bay. Two additional bedrooms echo the sense of scale and serenity, each with vaulted ceilings, generous closets, and inspiring views in every direction. An adjacent office and large laundry room complete the upper level, bringing convenience and functionality to this thoughtfully designed floor plan.

The Grounds
Spanning over 1.25 acres and tucked behind a private gate, the grounds are as memorable as the home itself. Towering pines create a forested canopy, while the wide-open lawn invites barefoot play, leisurely afternoons, and the possibility of even more—from a sparkling pool to a tennis court or garden studio. Stone pathways connect the main house, guest house, and bonus space, weaving together the property’s structures with intentional flow and relaxed luxury.
The Vermont bluestone patio, just off the kitchen and dining areas, offers an ideal vantage point for soaking in the views—Mountains to one side, Richardson Bay to the other. Gas and plumbing are in place for an outdoor kitchen, making the space perfect for entertaining under the stars. With eight-car parking, reclaimed old-growth redwood posts, and sustainably sourced materials throughout, the grounds reflect the same care, scale, and soul as the home they surround.
