Tucked into the hillside among dramatic natural boulders in Mount Merritt, a quiet enclave within Casa de Oro–Mount Helix, this home offers a rare combination of privacy, views, and everyday functionality. The setting feels truly special, with cool breezes, abundant natural light, and sweeping views to the west, including Cowles Mountain to the north, Mount Helix due west, Mount San Miguel to the south, and incredible sunset skies.
