Winding along the gated, private drive as you enter into Mill Creek Meadows, this 40-acre estate, complete with a main house and studio, separate guest house and workshop, rolling meadows, tree-lined pathways, and year-round creek with waterfall, exudes rustic elegance. The main residence features beautiful hand-hewn timber beams inside and out and is sited at a generous elevation, offering incredible views from virtually every vantage point. An inviting wisteria-draped front porch entrance opens into the first-floor great room. The central core of this room boasts a two-story vaulted ceiling above the dining area and is flanked on one side by the living room and on the other, a kitchen, both with ceilings at a lower profile. The farmhouse-style kitchen is striking with its wraparound counter and breakfast bar, exposed beams and rafters, coffered ceiling and abundant cabinetry. The second floor hosts the primary bedroom suite, bath/laundry and family room, and includes a screened-in porch and steps that lead to a beautiful rose and vegetable garden. The detached studio visually blends into the landscape and features a spacious second bedroom and bath. The grounds are truly spectacular. There are stretches of meadows, terraced gardens, apple orchards, and stands of majestic Redwoods. Additional features include perimeter fencing, a paved driveway, a 3-car garage, green house, and 3 wells.
