A Timeless Masterpiece Inspired by Nature and Design: Step into a truly one-of-a-kind home, lovingly designed and handcrafted by the original owners with inspiration drawn from the iconic works of Frank Lloyd Wright. This architectural gem beautifully blends natural materials, thoughtful design, and timeless craftsmanship to create a warm and welcoming living experience. The heart of the home is anchored by a striking black slate fireplace, not only a statement feature but a functional divider that eliminates the need for hallways, creating a flowing open-concept layout. Above, the pagoda-style roof and clerestory windows bring in gentle natural light while honoring Asian influences. Massive decorative chains serve as both structural support and striking visual elements, embodying the philosophy that form follows function. Inside, you’ll find a rich variety of authentic wood finishes—from Bruce oak flooring to cherry, ash, walnut, English elm, and clear redwood paneling—each thoughtfully selected and sourced from Georgia Pacific. Acoustic ceiling tiles throughout enhance both the peaceful ambiance and the entertaining potential of the home. Designed in the late 1960s, this home features an ingenious passive cooling system, eliminating the need for air conditioning. Open the screened doors and windows at night to draw in cool air, then close them by day and let the natural thermal properties of the fireplace and stone keep the home comfortably cool. Car enthusiasts and hobbyists will love the expansive four-car garage in the back, complete with a toolroom, grease pit, and paint booth—a dream workspace. The original garage, once a cozy temporary residence, now serves as a charming and functional extension of the property. Energy efficiency continues with a 10kWh solar system paired w/an automatic backup generator, powerful enough to run the entire home, including the private well. Located in one of Mariposa County’s best water regions, the strong well supports the stunning, lush landscaping lovingly created by original homeowner. Her green thumb is evident in the array of flowering plants, shade trees, and unique species not typically found in the area—made possible by the property's water supply. From the carefully chosen materials to the intentional design and self-sufficient systems, every corner of this home reflects passion, precision, and pride, this is more than a home—it's a legacy.
