Description

Sited on two and a half private acres (with more land available), this stunning home was originally the studio of master painter John Young Hunter (b. 1874), protege of John Singer Sargent and contemporary of famed Western artist Charles M. Russell. Young Hunter worked in this studio until his death in 1955.
 
The property is currently owned by renowned artist William Acheff, who has been meticulous in its renovation, remodel, and addition. The two-bedroom, two-bath, 2527-square-foot double-thick adobe main house has a great room (once Young Hunter's studio) on an open floorplan with a high-end gourmet kitchen (Aga stove, Subzero fridge, maple cabinetry, dumbwaiter). Original to the construction: hand-adzed vigas, gold-leafed columns, and decorative tile insets in the Turkish travertine tile floors.
 
A spiral staircase of maple leads to the second floor, which comprises the master suite, laundry room, and loft. Pull-down stairs in the loft lead to one of the buttresses, which offers top-of-the-world views.
 
The home is wired with a Bang & Olufsen sound system, which is not only a functional music system but also a striking kinetic sculpture.
 
Across a breezeway is a two-story 1513-square-foot guesthouse with one bedroom, one bathroom, and an elevator. It is currently used as a studio.
 
Every detail of both the restoration and the new construction has been carefully considered and executed. Materials and finishes are of the highest quality. This historic property is truly a spectacular residence!
