Wingate Forest is an owner-occupied home with three bedrooms and two private living spaces which are separate from the very large kitchen. Wingate Forest features a cottage on a separate footprint from the main home. I am available to offer, optionally, my services as a professional host during your visit, if requested. I do not c0-occupy the primary home at Wingate Forest during any time while I am hosting guests. I either move to a separate second structure on the property or travel to Seattle to stay at my daughter's penthouse in Seattle's South Lake Union area. I have lived at Wingate Forest since 2000 and have striven to make Wingate Forest a very special home. The trees on this property include, but are not limited to, four Giant Sequoia Redwood, three Leyland Cypress, one Deodar Cedar, two Western Hemlock, two Japanese Snowbell, two Arbor Vita, three Azalea. The lawn areas are expansive enough to host large outdoor events. The entryway is an extended entrance hall providing access to the library / parlor, to the kitchen and to the bedroom suites.
