This contemporary farmhouse, positioned on a knoll, surrounded by open farmland is located in San Luis Obispo’s Edna Valley wine corridor. The 2600 SF home wraps around a central courtyard, which provides an inviting place to convene protected from the seasonal winds. Inside, natural daylight fills the great room with a series of clerestory windows and sliding glass doors. Triangular windows crown the vaulted ceilings providing natural light and giving the home a luxurious open feeling. To minimize the usual amount of lights a vaulted ceiling home needs, pendant lights were strung across the kitchen from wall to wall to provide ambient lighting. The interior fixture choices - white cabinets, stainless steel appliances, neutral-toned backsplashes, and a cornflower blue island keep the home grounded while still maintaining a touch of modern elegance. The owner’s eclectic taste in furnishings gives the home an overall cozy feeling that lends personality to the home.
