About the host
Hosted by Anna
I live in California with my husband and adultish "kids". I grew up just down the road from this property, but escaped small town living as soon as I could. I moved to London, then Manhattan before settling in the Bay Area, CA 27 years ago. We have travelled to many places in the world and I have spent many years away but Otego has always been home. The people, the countryside, the way of living is so wonderful here. We're happy to be able to share the peace and tranquility along with my father's art for fellow travelers.
Why they chose this property
This land was a haven for me growing up. I loved the smells and sounds of green fields and quiet woods. The house I grew up in burned down in 2005. My father had always envisioned building a "pyramid house up on the hill" so this property is the result of that dream. We love it as much as my father did.
What makes this property unique
The property location was chosen by my father. He had the pond dug in 1990, then came a sauna shortly thereafter and eventually the house in 2015. The home is surrounded by many of the sculptures my father created, as well as tranquil trees and our lovely pond/lake. I call it a "pond", my English husband says it's a "lake"...we'll let you decide. The pond/lake is a world within itself - in constant motion with changing seasons and creatures of all kinds. Our most favorite being the puppy like koi fish and our own bullfrog choir. It's a peaceful place to be. Come check it out!
