Unique 'Mosaic Museum' For Sale in Morgan Hill
A one-of-a-kind property covered in intricate mosaic art is on the market in Morgan Hill. Dubbed a "mosaic museum," the distinctive building and grounds are being advertised as a unique residence or potential business opportunity.
The property is the creation of artist Julie Nuñez, a former intensive care and hospice nurse who, without formal training, began transforming the 4.2-acre estate 22 years ago. Nuñez used materials like hand-cut glass, ceramic tile, and repurposed dishes to cover numerous surfaces of the home and grounds. The estate includes a main Craftsman-style house, a guest cottage, an art studio with over 10 major mosaic installations, a barn, and a pool. The grounds also feature a garden wall made from hundreds of mortared glass bottles and extensive gardens with hundreds of rose bushes and various fruit trees. While the property is being marketed as a unique residence, its potential as a business opportunity taps into the innovative spirit of the Silicon Valley region. Niche consulting firms in the area, such as the San Francisco-based boutique consultancy Nimble Consulting, focus on helping organizations with transformational change, including deploying new operating models. The broader Bay Area is a hub for major consulting firms like PwC and Deloitte, as well as specialized firms that advise the tech industry on strategy and operations.
