Serenity Country Retreat—Living with Mount Shasta As My Companion!
The Seller Tell Us About Her Experience in Living with “The Mountain” as her constant companion.
Living here has been a dream come true…..it is in a great, safe area….with wonderful and supportive neighbors…it is only ½ hour away from a big city (Redding) with all the needed services, shopping, and social activities.
…the house has everything I would ever have wanted and more……it is light, spacious, comfortable and elegant and has beautiful views from every window. It has great connectivity to the outside and I am able to stay in close touch with my clients who are located around the globe.
And the outside…..I feel like I’m living in an ever changing beautiful landscape painting. I never knew what it would be like to have such peace, quiet and wide open space all around me…
- Mount Shasta has become my companion and every day I open the shades and excitedly wait to see how she will reveal herself (or not ) . It is a new experience every day….and she is the main attraction visible through all the main rooms in the house and cottage.
- Nature abounds here….and there is always some excitement to observe (the quail with their babies, deer running through the fields or looking for a shady spot to nap, squirrels playing tag and posing on the rocks, etc. etc.)
- And the sky…..the big unbounded sky …with not a fence in sight to limit it….it feels so spacious and is a dancing arena for the many hawks, birds and even dragonflies to do their magic. It also has some of the best star gazing you can ever find since there is no light pollution around.
The other extraordinary thing is our guest cottage. We have had many friends and family members come to stay here and they have each said it is like having their own private retreat center…..and we can have visitors and yet still have our privacy. It is the best!
Serenity Country Home
3 ½ Acres: Beautiful and spacious property with gorgeous views of Mount Shasta, the Trinity Alps and the Valley located in Shingletown, California.
This “one of kind” custom built home has it all…including a separate guest cottage and office/storage space. It is aesthetically pleasing and has a warm, peaceful and inviting feeling to it. The home was meticulously designed for maximum durability, flexibility, light, space, scenic beauty and technological capability. Building standards were exceeded and the house, cottage and garage all include: 2 by 6 construction, fully upgraded insulation, and double pane windows. This results in living space that is highly energy efficient and quiet. Extra touches include beautiful ceiling breaks, rounded corners on all walls, ceiling fans in all rooms, and 5 inch window sills and floor molding. The beautiful and distinctive flooring is a nice balance of hardwood floors, custom tiles and high grade carpeting.
Window coverings are both custom designed and made by Hunter-Douglas. From a technological standpoint the home includes over 6000 feet of wiring which enables full potential for computer networking, satellite and cable TV in all rooms as well as twenty-two Paradigm in-ceiling speakers throughout the house and two independent Russ Sound systems which are the virtual equivalent of 9 stereo systems. The built in security system is state of the art with motion sensors and smoke detectors. The home also has “off the grid’ capability with 2 in tandem propane tanks (750 gallons in total) and a brand new Generex Generator that will automatically kick in should a power failure arise. The cottage has its own separate Propane tank with a 250 gallon capacity.
The Weather is beautiful here, with a climate better than the Bay Area because although the temperatures are about the same, it is much less humid. It is below the snow line and high enough to avoid the valley heat. (approximately 2000 feet in elevation) Mount Shasta is perfectly centered on the property facing due North and the design of the house provides exquisite views from almost every room in the house.
The Shingletown area is a nature paradise with beautiful mountains, hiking trails, rivers and lakes near by, including such attractions such as Mt. Lassen Park, Whiskeytown Lake, Lake Shasta, Burney Falls and Mount Shasta.
The home was completed in 2003 and the guest cottage in 2005.
Situated on 3.5 acres, the prospective new owner has great flexibility on what to do with the land off the building pad. We currently have a neighbor who plants Alfalfa and maintains it for us. It could be a perfect property for planting a vineyard, or a place to have horses, or put your own swimming pool. Your imagination and dreams are all that is needed to create the living environment you would most like to have. Create your on lifestyle and make your dreams a reality!
