This home has been described as,
Wild Wood Park is a collection of buildings and landscape elements developed by Henry Greene in the early 1920s. Located in a seemingly remote canyon, the property reflects the legacy of the Greenes' work in its relationship to the immediate surroundings as well as the use of materials and detailing in construction. For the first time in over 30 years, Cottage D is being offered for sale. Set on over an acre of verdant oak grove, it includes a barn, storage building and the enchanting Composury. The main home is sheltered beneath one of the largest oaks in this region and features 3 bedrooms, 1.75 baths, formal dining room and two dramatic arroyo stone chimneys. French doors open to a wide porch overlooking the rock gardens. The broad, open terrace is flanked by wide stone steps and surrounded by the grove. Plants mingle with stonework, pathways and an amphitheatre under the oaks. This is a rare opportunity to live on a site reminiscent of the 19th-Century California landscape.
