This home was given Sunset Magazine’s October 1995 Special Award for Indoor – Outdoor Living. It’s 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms in approximately 2700 square feet on a 4350 square foot lot. Called the Van Horne House, it was built by architect Taylor Van Horne. It’s considered to be in the area referred to as Prime Mount Washington.
To enter this property, you walk through a lath-roofed atrium which brings you into a Japanese inspired garden planted with giant bamboo. This will immediately change your mood and you’ll happily leave your day behind as you enter your personal sanctuary.
The entry courtyard leads to the living room, the dining room and the kitchen spaces. These are separated from the atrium by 8 ft tall retractable glass slide doors that take advantage of the outdoor view and also allow for amazing ventillation, especially working with the breezes that so often accompany living on hillsides. The architect stated that his time living in Brazil gave him the perspective and experience to know how to make the breeze work for the home.
Some of the other features of this home include: two master suites – one with a spa tub and the other one with a steaming shower, a large media room that’s perfect for entertaining, a state-of-the-art kitchen that has Gaggenau appliances and a covered patio that stays cozy on those chilly mountain nights.
