First time offered, an incredible opportunity for the creative spirit. This enclave was so lovingly constructed as to produce a constant nurturing of the soul and imagination, affording the viewer incomparable vistas of the celestial sphere and distant mountain ranges.

The scenes are constantly changing. A sudden storm produces a Payne’s gray sky, causing the leaves of the near by trees to turn to silver, a flash of lighting and the landscape becomes drenched in light, as if seen looking through the shutter of a camera.

The artist/builder/designer developed this sanctuary with no thought of ever leaving. This is often the case when one lives each day at a time. Therefore the seller is seeking to have us find that certain person that will appreciate the path that has been prepared for the next virtuoso to follow.

The main lodge and studio is laid out to accommodate the artist with all the creature comforts that this world has to offer. Amenities abound, such as huge great room with soaring ceiling and walls of glass - to be one with nature; a gas fireplace, top of the line appliances, hard wood floors, sky lights, stained glass, 2 master bedroom suites, a balcony bedroom, and an upper studio.

The ground floor studio is laid out to furnish the artist and/or apprentices the liberty to work in mixed media. This studio opens out on a covered verandah with incomparable views and north light. A large bath with large Jacuzzi is ready to soothe the body, a sun room/solarium awaits the horticulturist. The exterior of this home is engaging and alluring, a wonderful blend of form and function, The entrance is though a small garden and up a few steps - the front door opens into a marvelous outside sitting room, sheltered from the sky but entirely open to world. I had the feeling that I had just walked onto a movie set, so engaging that I could feel a smile spread across my face.

This area leads to a 8’ x 10’ air lock entry and a deck that runs the entire length of the dwelling. A series of steps and landings leads to the lower lawn and fields.

The piece-de-resistance is to be found in the separate and provocative studio. So designed to act as a catalyst to stimulate one’s creativity. This edifice measures 28’ x 40’, with a ground floor 28’ x 20’ studio or work shop, plus a separate 2 car garage. The upper level is a jaw dropper, this massive space is awesome to say the least, a space 28’ x 40’ with a self contained kitchen and a full bath. The ceiling rises to 16 feet and the room is exclusive of any posts or lolly columns. There are 2 decks - one to sit and capture the morning sun at sunrise, and the other a place to pause and reflect on the day that has passed as the sun slips behind the distant mountains.

This virtual paradise sits on 3 +/- acres with southern exposure and secluded swim pond and pines. The complex is surrounded by verdant farmland, the sun, the moon, and the stars.
