Welcome to one of the finest homes in Redwood Estates, a rare opportunity to own a beautiful retreat offering exceptional privacy. One of very few homes near the very top of the Santa Cruz mountains, the home offers a ridgetop setting with layered Santa Cruz Mountain views from the bedrooms. Wake to distant ridgelines above the redwood canopy. It is easily accessed with a 2 minute travel time from Hwy 17 and only 15 minutes to downtown Los Gatos and 20 minutes to downtown Santa Cruz. One of the property’s most distinctive features is its extraordinary collection of Japanese maples. More than 25 trees representing over 15 different varieties create a living garden that changes character throughout the year, from delicate spring greens to brilliant autumn color. The landscape feels curated yet natural, blending seamlessly with the surrounding mountain setting. The home also features a full 132" projection screen in a 20 foot high slanted ceiling room.
