This lot and home celebrate the the magnificence of nature. Understated older home sits between a gorgeous meadow and a natural "live" pond. The property was originally developed by and for reknowned architect Gyo Obata and his family. The design of simple lines defined with wood beams, walls and windows has an enduring integrity. An unfettered flow between inside and out is both calming and stimulating for the creative mind. A perfect spot in the world for those with artistic spirit. Subsequent owners have modified and added on but the living room and reading loft, however, are still in original state. An inviting testimony to Obata's original concept. Renovation plans were recently designed by Kiku Obata for the current owner and are available. Ms. Obata would also be amenable to working a fresh approach with a new owner. Home is being sold in its present condition seller to do no repairs.
