Cynthia Carbone Ward recently shared a great account of her 2016 visit to Hollister Ranch with John Hollister Wheelright, who passed away in January of this year. John was the grandson of Jim and Lottie Hollister, who settled there and built an elegant home in 1910 that’s now known simply as the Hollister House. In 2020, I visited this 105-acre estate nearby that was part of the Hollister family’s original holdings. On my way out of the ranch, I strolled the original Hollister House grounds. I snapped the photo above and felt the years of history as I gazed at the aging-yet-still-proud, two-story redwood home, with its porch and balcony standing lookout over this wild and beautiful place.

NOTE: I’m out of the office for the next few weeks, but we want to keep your in box warm while I’m away. Below, find a couple of current homes for sale to tickle your taste buds.
