About this House

Rare, sophisticated and woodsy garden cottage in the heart of "Redwood country" in wonderful Mendocino County. Live in modern comfort with off the grid privacy tucked in behind desirable Pine Mountain Estates, a well-established community in the eastern hills of Willits. This unique property offers a beautifully designed 2bed 1 bath cottage nestled in 40 acres of madrone, redwood, ferns, various fir trees, and tan oak. Lush, organic chemistry is experienced here the moment you approach the home. Enjoy your morning coffee from your front porch with views of a natural setting and abundance of wildlife. The yard has maple and blooming dogwood trees sitting atop naturally raised flowerbeds. This home provides an incredibly spacious and private feeling with lots of natural light from the large windows that provide views of the surrounding ferns and redwoods. Additionally, this home comes partially furnished if desired and features open beam ceilings in nearly every room, a wrap-a-round redwood deck, sustainable living with the new solar system, newer metal roof, propane appliances, fresh paint, fireplace, attic storage, new high efficiency propane furnace, and a new diesel generator house for solar backup. Keep cool in the summertime under the redwoods with the afternoon breeze. This property is easily accessible approximately 1.5 miles of maintained dirt road and offers multiple access roads, 5,000 gallon water storage system spring fed for agricultural use, an abundant spring, several flat areas for another potential building site and a fantastic view of Redwood Valley from the main road on the property. This unique home would make great income potential as an Air BnB as it is conveniently an approximate 10 minute drive to downtown Willits and close proximity to the new Hospital. Enjoy peaceful living in the Redwoods!

    "Living in Brooktrails can be difficult, 10 min drive to town, not safe to walk or ride bikes on Sherwood Rd and no safe alternative. While houses and rent may seem less than in town, utilities are high."

    "Brooktrails has had a checkered past - pot growers took over homes abandoned after the bubble burst and trashed a lot of places. But its coming back. Housing costs are at rock bottom - if you're looking for a great price on a home in the redwoods, this is the place. The town, Willits, is as friendly and engaging as any town I've ever been to. We're looking for our retirement home here, and have no doubt we'll find it."
