We are in the rural mountains and woods so overall it is pretty rustic! There is dirt right outside the house too.
TV isn't hooked up to cable yet.
It's very quiet in the mountains, music which may not seem loud in the cities can be pretty loud here especially at night.
This can be the perfect getaway, especially for those who enjoy the nature, quietness, serenity, simplicity, sparkling creativity, contemplating spirituality, but not much for the materialistic luxury.
There is a garden growing veggies.
Our water is from a natural spring.
We have a main trail on our 45 acre. The head of the main trail is right by the red Main House, just follow the paved the road down and it will become dirt road. It's about 45min to 1hr hike down to the end where the Amaya creek serves the boundary to the neighbor's property. On the main trail there is also a small waterfall, but it is not visible from the trail, you have to go off the trail on the left side to find it. I put pink ribbon on the tree there, but at other spots too so may not be the best sign.
Enjoy hiking, creeks and small water fall exploration, mountain biking, wildlife viewing (deer, turkey, owl etc), star gazing, relaxation, meditation and more.
There is a private campground down with 10 min hike.
Easy commute to silicon valley companies (30 min to Apple) and fast Wifi allows working from home.
