PROPERTY DESCRIPTION:

Imagine a Virginia horse farm set down a couple miles east of central Palo Cedro, and you will get the flavor of this sophisticated yet rural estate. From the gated entrance set between stone pillars to the curving driveway lined with wildflowers and shade trees, the French Country style home in a secluded garden setting overlooking Cow Creek is just amazing. This 4,000+ sq.ft. 3 bedroom-and-den, 2.5 bath home features amenities such as a formal living and dining room; two-story country kitchen with a 6-burner Wolf range and Subzero refrigerator/freezer, black granite counters, and extensive maple custom cabinetry throughout; and an adjoining two-story great room with stone fireplace,built-in bookshelves, and a wall of windows with french doors providing immediate access to the covered patio and swimming pool. The inlaid wood floors, window-seat reading nooks, and butler's pantry are just a few of the upscale amenities that make for a special home. The nearly 15 acres provide the equestrian with several larger paddocks, an 8-stall barn with half-bath and horse wash area, approximately 100 x 200 outdoor arena, and RV hook-ups, among other features. Three large dog runs, a 3-car garage, and carport round out the various improvements--a domestic well and second 600 gpm (seller) agricultural well supply plenty of irrigation water to lush gardens and pastures. All-in-all this is a rare find in a very desirable area, and within easy commuting distance of Redding.
