Located down a long driveway in the Fernwood area this secluded 3 acre property brings the magic of a vintage architectural that takes in the fullness of the nature that surrounds it. This house is one of only 12 Bob Bates homes in Topanga. Surrounded by elegant eucalyptus, oak & pine, blending perfectly with the surrounding landscape on all 3 levels, it is a house of open spaces & light with dramatic wood beam ceilings which features 3 gorgeous fireplaces built by Jack Rice that anchor the center of the house with one spectacular chimney. The tall windows & French doors serve to bring the outside in at every opportunity. From the upper deck off the great room, there is a 180 degree view of a stream, wildlife, trees, rolling canyon & lush mountains, arguably one of the best unobstructed views in the Canyon. The property borders State Park, has trails, pathways, steps & view decks & is comprised of 2 separate lots, one of which is potentially build-able & can be accessed off Kerry Lane.
