Wooden and Woodsy in Mandeville Canyon, With a Bocce Court

This elaborate house has been hiding out in Mandeville Canyon (zoned for horses) since 2002, when it was built by its current owners. The six bedroom, four and a half bathroom is "nestled in an oak grove," and has birch ceilings, Ipe flooring, and Sapeli cabinets. So woodsy! The listing suggests you "Take the floating staircase and retreat to the Zen master suite and deck. Translucent fiberglass walls offer privacy, light and illumination." The property also includes a guesthouse, pool, art studio, and bocce court. The house first came on the market in March 2010 asking $9.8 million. It was chopped in June of that year to $8.975 million and now the ax swings again--it's down to $8.3 million.
