SOLD! Stetson Rd, Los Gatos Huge heartfelt congratulations to these amazing humans. It’s incredible how close a bond can be formed when helping people with huge milestones in their lives. ... Roxy and Pete (age 2) are pretty much besties, but don’t tell Bjorne (the pup! ), she’ll get jealous. Time and time again, Daniel and Noelle expressed that this home is their dream home - and we agree, with the gorgeous Redwood forest as their backyard, the chef’s kitchen where Noelle will bake up a storm (all those pastry pics have been her doing), to the ginormous detached garage, we can’t imagine a better place to shelter! Looking forward to visiting them soon
