**Elevated Architectural Sanctuary, Floating Among the Redwoods** Ascend above the noise of the everyday to a private hillside sanctuary surrounded by towering Redwoods and Douglas Firs. Nestled high within the forest canopy with sweeping mountain views, this distinctive custom-built home blends thoughtful architecture, natural beauty and exceptional privacy. The crown jewel of the property is an expansive outdoor oasis with a custom deck thoughtfully designed around the harmonious proportions of the Golden Ratio. Unwind in the countersunk gunite hot tub with a natural river-rock bottom and cascading waterfall feature. As the sun sets behind the mountains, gather around the custom Moroccan-tile fire table, surrounded by forest, sky and remarkable privacy. More than a home, this is an elevated retreat from the everyday. The permitted remodel combines the home's original architectural character with extensive contemporary upgrades.
