Seventeen Sequoias is a hidden oasis on Austin Creek. A gardener’s sanctuary with an orchard of more than a dozen mature fruit trees including multiple types of apples, three kinds of plums, an Asian pear apple, D’Anjou pear, figs, peach, persimmons, quince and kiwi vines - as well as an area of raised garden beds and an abundance of blackberries. Flowering bulbs, hydrangeas, and extensive succulent gardens mingle between the 17+ ancient redwood trees including several fairy rings. Garden paths wind amid the plantings and natives that also host hummingbirds, butterflies and other wildlife. Explore and experience this 1 acre property as it transforms through the seasons. In fair weather, bring your water wings, floaties, and water shoes to float or walk in the creek - skipping stones and, if you’re lucky, watching otters! The ping-pong table is rated for year-round use and it is next to the outdoor seating area by the cottage.
Your retreat at Seventeen Sequoias extends into the recently remodeled house as a place to relax and recharge any time of year. Play board games in front of the living room fireplace or catch up on movies, snuggling on the extra-long leather sofa and comfy chairs. The refreshed kitchen boasts a fantastic amount of counter space, cabinets well-stocked with pots, pans and kitchen tools, and stainless steel appliances including a Jenn-Air range. You may not want to leave to explore the excellent restaurants in Duncan’s Mills or nearby Jenner, but if you do, you’ll love returning to Seventeen Sequoias!
Adjacent to the spacious master bedroom is the custom built bathroom. The shower is tiled with cut river rock, ceramic and glass tiles. While we hope you don’t need it, the second bedroom doubles as a home office. Fold the Queen Murphy bed up and out of the way, plug in your laptop and get some work done and go back to playing! Lastly, in a creative turn, the laundry room is also a sleeping nook! A single twin bed cozies in with a privacy curtain.
The newest addition – a remodeled cottage in the back yard adds another bedroom, full bathroom, and extensive living room. An antique poker table and movie posters set the laid-back vibe. Through outside to the year-round outdoor ping-pong table and gas firepit in the newly graveled seating area. New photos coming!
