An hour ago, there was a gathering of good friends and an abundance of laughter at all points of this classic Martis Camp home. Conversations flowed freely, especially at the patio, deck and great room. But like the sunset that everyone paused to admire, the party eventually set. Sundown gave way to night, and quiet, and the intoxicating effects of a hot tub and firepit under starry skies. Located on a 2.25 acre estate lot, this 4,900-square-foot home is a natural entertainer. Along the front entry is a long, alluring, west-facing porch — a pleasant place to relax. Inside is a scene anchored by a great room with access to a deck with generous views of the forest. An office shares that western view and can be private or open to the social spaces. The kitchen and the corner dining room share that same morning sun. Further on is a primary suite with forest views as well. A staircase leads to the ground level of the home where you’ll find four bedrooms, a wine cellar, a media room with fireplace and big screen tv — like most of the rooms at this level — opens to the patio with the expansive views and the alluring hot tub and fire pit.

Only a matter of steps away from the private back yard is the Cross Camp Trail that traverses the community and leads to wonders near and far. Inside, however, is a 5-bed, 4.5-bath home that holds its own appeals. Kitchen countertops are marble while appliances include GE Monogram and Blue Star. Flooring is primarily stone and tile while the master bedroom is carpeted. Decking is cedar, ceilings are vaulted, and the surrounding landscape is mature and includes drip irrigation.
