Beautiful and serene Three Tree Point VIEW HOME! Set high among the aromatic evergreens lies a treetop refuge that feels suspended between earth & sky. Built in '39, its architecture is a charming blend of traditional, craftsman and MC—like a home that has collected eras the way travelers collect stories. Here, the line between home and nature blurs. Eagles drift past and seabirds trace arcs against a backdrop of mountains and shimmering water. From the bay windows and deck, the sun melts into the horizon, the trees catching the light and scattering it in colorful streaks. The surrounding landscape feels both wild and lovingly tended. Fig and apple trees mingle with raspberries, elderberries, and clusters of champagne grapes—a quiet garden orchestra that hums with life. Reaching the home requires following a private drive that feels like a gentle retreat from the world. Yet, surprisingly, shops, restaurants and the airport are close enough to be convenient but far enough to leave the tranquility untouched. Inside, the home bursts with character. Built-in shelving & cabinetry curve into the walls, waiting to hold books, art & keepsakes. Downstairs, a unique arched cove-style fireplace anchors the main room, radiating a warmth that feels both literal and nostalgic. This is more than a house; it’s a perch above the shore, a front-row seat to the quiet theater of sky, sea & forest. A timeless retreat where modern life pauses & nature steals the show. Home Warranty Included!
