Borrego Springs · 整套民居 · 1室2床1.5卫 · 可住4人 · Star Catcher Cottage: A Borrego Mid-Century Modern
A lovingly renovated Mid-Century Modern cottage in Borrego Springs, located in a quiet neighborhood close to both the magnificent Anza Borrego State Park and the charming town with its shops and restaurants. The home sits on a 1/2 acre of land, surrounded by a new cedar fence for privacy. The house has a separate dining room and laundry room. It includes brand-new appliances and a Caldera spa. Enjoy a Bose speaker unit with built-in Alexa while stargazing from the spa. I was so touched by this solid redwood Mid-Century Modern cottage from the moment I saw it, even though it was very run-down. Maybe I loved it because of the huge beams inside, or the beautiful light that shines in, or outside when it rains a big spiral emerges from the earth. Or perhaps I loved the old desert plants, trees, and the stones and crystals in the yard. And there is the changing desert light playing off all the surrounding mountains and especially the light that changes on Font's Point. I could sit and watch it all day. Oh, and the stars and planets at night are ... well they are awesome, to say the least. Borrego Springs has the rare designation of a Dark Night Sky Community. It was a long and challenging renovation, but worth every moment because it was a labor of love. The house is now 1250 sq. feet with a light-filled and open floor plan. There is a private master bedroom, walk-in closet, and remodeled master bath. Also, the dining room has its own separate space, and so does the laundry room with another 1/2 bath. After all the renovation and remodeling work was done, we added lovely art, antiques, high-end bedding, all-new appliances, a large-screen smart tv, a record player with a vintage record collection, a walk-in closet, bookcases filled with classic books, and many other great details. Outside we added a gorgeous new Caldara spa and a triple burner Weber grill, as well as two outdoor fire pits. We fenced off the house and 1/4 acre of the yard with a new cedar fence, yet left 1/4 acre of our desert land open beyond the back yard for another large fire pit ... and just desert space. The home is a short walk of three blocks to town with all its shops, restaurants, and art galleries, and an equally short walk to the magnificent and wild Anza Borrego State part; the largest state park in California. There is something about this home that has inspired tremendous creativity for us. I hope it does for you too, and that you will love it as much as we do.
This is a very lovely peaceful home and the amenities are extra nice. Loved watching the stars from the backyard and the early morning sunrise. Thank you for a wonderful stay.
Very cute home with lots of character but updated for the 21st century with everything we needed. Lots of spare towels, thoughtful amenities in the kitchen - and a hot tub besides! Plus, Tamara was very responsive and quick to answer any questions. A great place from which to enjoy Borrego Springs, whether it's the quiet desert atmosphere, the great metal sculptures, or the beautiful wildflowers!
Tamara’s place was so special. Lots of creative decorating, great art, comfortable furniture, and a nice hot tub for stargazing. The kitchen was well equipped, the bed comfortable and the neighborhood very quiet. We will definitely be back!
The house is located in a quaint neighborhood that is usually very quiet. However, if you are outside you will sometimes hear cars driving by on the road a few blocks away, roosters out in the neighborhood in the early morning, and an occasional cool music concert a neighbor hosts once a while. Oh and don't let me forget to mention that some amazing birds such as Great Horned Owls live in the trio of old palm trees beside the house. You'll hear them too sometimes, and we love them. In the distance, you'll hear the wild call of coyotes.
The neighborhood has wide streets. The walk to town or the state park is easy and short. There is a whole lot of space for parking in the yard!
自我介绍
Hello, my name is Tamara Shure, and I will be your host. I enjoy saving historic homes that otherwise would be lost, and I'm proud to say that some have been subsequently designated California State Historic Landmarks. All of them, including The Enchanted Lookout, were in very poor shape, but I could see the potential. My passion is to save history and create spaces that inspire and nurture people.
