Property Description
The Engstrand Residence by Sim Bruce Richards is one of the most engaging examples of the architect’s woodsy, organic modernism. Historically designated (with Mills Act property tax savings in place), the home offers intoxicating views from every room. The interior hosts a number of built-in works by artist James Hubbell. Nestled comfortably amidst granite boulders and mature trees, the 0.82-acre site also hosts a myriad of potential formal and informal dining and entertaining opportunities. The pool and spa area is sited to offer privacy for you and your relaxed guests. Beyond the 4 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms inside the home, there is an additional pool-adjacent activity room and half-bath. An additional 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom apartment over the carport has served the owners as a rental as well as professional studio. Since their purchase, the present owners embarked on a number of significant improvements including: new HVAC system, pool equipment, solar, electric car charger, drought-tolerant landscaping with automatic irrigation, and whole-house water filtration among other projects.

Recorded sales in this period (0)
No recorded sales in this range. Select All available for older records; missing records do not mean the home never sold.
ZIP averages use publicly displayable closed sales from our licensed MLS feed, matched to the same ZIP and exact property type. Months with fewer than 3 sales are omitted; the current month is incomplete. Lines connect available monthly observations across gaps and do not represent measured prices in missing months. These averages are not adjusted for size, condition, or location within the ZIP, and are not an appraisal. Feed coverage may not include every sale. All available shows the available home and ZIP history, with mortgage rates over the same dates.
Mortgage benchmark: Freddie Mac Primary Mortgage Market Survey®. © Freddie Mac. Weekly national 30-year fixed rates, not APRs or a loan quote. Actual terms vary. Methodology changed in November 2022. The chart does not establish that interest-rate changes caused a home’s price changes.
Lines connect recorded asking and sale prices. They are visual guides, not estimates of the home’s value between those dates.
