Property Description
A once-in-a-generation offering. Once part of the Redding's historic Samuel Clemens (Mark Twain) estate, this extraordinary 5.41 acre property was later home to renowned American Abstract Expressionist painter Robert Natkin, whose creativity inspired its remarkable evolution. Set beside the 161-acre Stormfield Preserve, this secluded private compound offers miles of hiking trails just beyond your doorstep. The understated approach gives way to an unforgettable interior where architecture masterfully employs "compression and release". Step through the glass entry and the home unfolds to a spectacular designer-renovated chef's kitchen with Wolf range/double ovens, Sub-Zero refrigerator, quartz waterfall island, wet bar and a full wall of glass that opens creating seamless indoor-outdoor living to the screened porch, heated saltwater pool and sweeping grounds, ideal for entertaining on any scale. Every principal room captures views of the surrounding landscape, creating a seamless connection to its setting. A climate-controlled studio with 9' glass garage doors opening to the landscape-equally suited as an art studio or fitness space. Designed for multi-generational living with first and second-floor primary suites, three ensuite bedrooms, guest/in-law/au pair apartment, workshop, entry gallery and temperature controlled pole barn for collectors, equestrians, car enthusiasts or hobbyists. R-2 zoning on 5.41 acres offers possible subdivision potential with due diligence.
