Description

Passing through a private gate, you enter into the majestic world of Two Ravens Retreat & Ranch. The 33-+ acres encompasses a main residence, guest house, custom 2 stall redwood stable and barn, two custom yurts, outdoor showers and bath house and Watsu pool. With end of road privacy, the tree-lined entry drive winds through the core of the property and arrives at the base of a water tower inspired residence, guest house and garage, nestled in an open area. The tower's three stories - connected by a central staircase - are a testament to fine joinery and old-world craftsmanship. The core of the tower is wrapped in massive beams and trusses that give strength and character to the 2,600+- sq ft of living space within. The main residence is comprised of two bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms, an open-plan kitchen and solarium, a reception area, a great room (with antique heart pine flooring and a massive stone fireplace), and a roof-top terrace. From the high ceilings, antique heart pine and slate flooring, to the separate bedroom levels, each floor offers an unforgettable unique living experience, all framed by sweeping windows framing pastoral and forest views of the natural world outside. The architectural strength and character of this home is anchored in the primary use of old-growth timbers and steel that created a true visual masterpiece. Nowhere is this more evident than in the Great Room where rough-hewn, exposed beams and trusses; walls of glass; spectacular skylights and a massive stone fireplace come together to create a warm and enveloping sanctuary. Just beyond the wood-line lies a fern studded trail lit by the golden rays of sunlight casting down from the Redwood strewn canopy above. Twisting and turning along the way runs a seasonal stream feeding the delicate and pristine ecosystem all around. The majesty of the forest is a testament to time and offers the transcending ability that only nature can provide. Bordered by nearly 400 acres of Jug Handle Preserve and adjacent Jackson State Forest, the ranch is an equestrian paradise. Nearly all of the property is fenced and crossed fenced allowing for seasonal and year-round grazing. The custom 2 stall redwood stable and barn offers a tack room, large sink, countertops and ample room for hay and equipment storage. Other improvements on the ranch offer the next owner or guests an ADU/Guest house, two custom yurts, outdoor showers and bath house and Watsu pool for extended stays.
