This home is not only a beautifully crafted home, built in 1890 and remodeled , it has fine woodwork and workmanship through out with hand crafted details down to the door knobs and hinges. It is decorated by Brazilian artist, who has a deep affinity for color.
The warm glow and whimsical colorful art work is transportive; it will take you to your inner smile.
Windows open to the many views of the mountains, sunrise, and garden. The house has three floors, the third floor which feels more like an atelier/ cozy cottage combined.
The 200 yr. old redwood trees are majestic and add a stillness to this unique property. It is close to downtown, approximately 12-15 minutes walk from the Shakespeare theater, Lithia Park, and the Varsity Cinema and local restaurants.
From behind the house you can access roads that lead to the many mountain trails. You can also walk to downtown through back streets without having to deal with traffic.
A "magical " house would be a very suitable description for this unique home. If Frieda Kahlo had come to Ashland, she would of felt right at home. Images of Ethnic Angels , Kwan Yin, and Buddha . foliage and flowers, all resonate perfectly with one another.
This house has brought much inspiration to many artists, mystics,musicians , creative people & art lovers, from around the world.
Celebration, retreats, a gathering of "three generations" have greatly enjoyed the peaceful quality of this home and it's surroundings.
" Hands on Healing" is available as well as massage therapy with certified practitioners as well as private and certified yoga instructors.

Why the Owner Chose Ashland
This is a house I fell in love with at first sight. The redwood trees are such an important part of the garden- it bring a lot of tranquility and serenity. The garden is quite large considering we are right in town. It's quite an oasis. The waterfall and patio are a delight, especially at night with the twinkling lights & lanterns... It's quiet , surrounded by many old trees.
The Unique Benefits at this House
There are views from every window and ... just sitting at the table and having a cup of tea you will be facing a gorgeous view of the mountains. What I love about this property is the house itself, the trees which make it very quiet and cool at night. There is no noise- no traffic. And you can easily walk or bike to downtown.
Also, the house is very unique in that it has beautiful views from every window. There are many windows, and they are wide so as to fit the awesome views (!)
*****If you have any interest in renting the house for the Dec ,jan, feb, March months- let me know , as I'm thinking to visit my daughter in Brazil. (she's moving there in August 09 )
**Look forward to hearing from you - Jussara
Owner's Map of Ashland
We've lived here for 19 years and it's been a joy and blessing. This house is a wonderful home and a creative environment . Most of all the art work you see was created here. My daughter Sofia plays guitar, and other members of my family play piano and accordion professionally. Abundance: the walls are a living gallery. I love to host a musical evenings and art-exhibits.
Over the years I 've had many offers to buy this house, BUT... I'm not ready just yet. We are still here quite a large part of the time & we love this home, the trees, & garden.. Sharing all this has been a good experience thus far. The house is much too large for our small family, and now others get to enjoy it too. I've had the pleasure meeting some lovely people.
Right now , I'm painting , planting flowers , working on various projects. The garden should have lots of colors by the time you arrive.(!)
So, relax,read, write, or just bask in the sun. You'll be inspired as you enjoy the art & theater and explore the unique natural surroundings of this sweet town
Happy Winter,spring and Summer and Fall !
