6.25 Acres in Catheys Valley, CA - $950,000

Luxury living on 6.25 acres in the foothills, an hours drive from Yosemite Valley and just 30 minutes to UC Merced, with spectacular views from every room. This spacious, single-story home is ideally suited for entertaining, remote work, and family life. At its heart is a magnificent great room with soaring ceilings and windows, a formal dining area, wood-burning fireplace, and built-in bar. Steps away, the large, open kitchen with granite countertops looks out onto the breakfast nook and a cozy den with its own fireplace. Two secondary bedrooms share a full bath with shower and jetted tub on the south side of the house. A small hallway on the north side leads, first, to a hexagonal study with a full bathroom, and then to the magnificent primary suite with its own sitting area, spa tub, gas fireplace, and glass doors leading to the heated pool and Japanese gardens. A half-bath is located on the outside of the house, accessible to bathers. Wild turkeys greet you at breakfast outside the breakfast nook. As you work or read in your office, you might catch a glimpse of hummingbirds, hawks, or deer through the plantation shutters. At night, watch the moonrise or count shooting stars. Sleep peacefully, with your full-house Generac generator on duty outside the 3-car garage.
