Q: Is the backyard fully enclosed?
A: It is not (yet!) fully enclosed. We are about 90% of the way there. The issue is that we are in a Design Control District and are waiting on Monterey County to give us the green light to finish the project.

Q: Can I bring the kiddos?

A: Our driveway can accommodate up to 6 sedans. (Or, it could fit 2 large trucks or Sprinter vans + 2 sedans.) We request that you fit *all* cars in our driveway, out of respect to our neighbors.

A: Yes it is upon special request, with advance notice.
