About this House
Perched above the Pacific Ocean and overlooking Pine Beach, this exceptional coastal retreat offers privacy, tranquility, and access to both Jug Handle State Park and the sandy beach below. Set on a quiet lane, the beautifully maintained property captures the essence of Mendocino Coast living with breathtaking ocean vistas, lush gardens, and thoughtfully designed indoor-outdoor spaces. The single-level residence spans approximately 2,370 square feet and features two fireplaces, three bedrooms (3rd bedroom is being used as an office) and two baths, complemented by a separate guest suite above the garage and a north-facing artist studio with ideal natural light. Expansive windows and inviting gathering spaces create a seamless connection to the surrounding landscape and ocean beyond. Wake up every morning with the sights and sounds of the crashing waves from your primary suite with a beautifully appointed bathroom with double sinks, heated floors, and a door leading to a private patio. Outdoor living is equally captivating, with multiple spaces designed for relaxation and entertaining -- including a spacious ocean-view deck with hot tub and sauna, a fire pit perched above the shoreline, and a sheltered stone patio with fountain overlooking the manicured grounds. Vibrant gardens bloom throughout the seasons, while raised garden beds and a greenhouse provide the perfect setting for cultivating your own coastal garden oasis. The guest quarters offer beautiful views, a private living area with a wet bar, and a full bath, ideal for visitors, extended stays, or creative flexibility. In the past, it has provided a nice supplemental income as a nightly rental. Perfectly positioned between Mendocino and Fort Bragg, with scenic oceanside trails just outside your door.
