Summary:
Salt spray, crashing waves, and a front-row seat to the Pacific -- welcome to the Mendocino Coast. End the day in your private hot tub with the ocean as your soundtrack. Curl up by the fireplace as fog rolls in off the Pacific. Room for 6 in this 3-bedroom home. Walk to local restaurants, river access, and Gualala Point Regional Park. Small-town pace, big coastal beauty -- that's Gualala.
The Space:
Find the time and space to rest, reflect, and soak up the beauty of the Northern California Coast at this three-bedroom home in Sea Ranch. In this serene setting overlooking the meadow and ocean, you'll have a private hot tub, window-lined living spaces, and access to the Bluff Trail and Walk On Beach.
This home enjoys a highly desirable location within Sea Ranch, with the oceanfront Bluff Trail and the broad expanse of Walk On Beach accessible at the end of Mast Head Reach. You'll be within walking distance of the Monarch Glen, One-Eyed Jack's playground, the tidepools of Shell Beach, and the Del Mar Recreation Center - one of the three Sea Ranch rec centers with an outdoor pool, tennis courts, and saunas for which you'll have passes. And with an electric vehicle charger (outlet only)next to the garage, you'll have no trouble reaching the Sea Ranch Golf Links, downtown Gualala, and the other beauties of Highway 1.
Each day begins and ends outside on the deck, where you'll find the hot tub, a pair of lounge chairs, and a bistro table. It's the perfect setting for watching deer graze in the meadow as you sip your coffee and crack open a book.
Inside, the house has been recently and thoughtfully updated with new hardwood floors and new, comfortable sofas. At the heart of the home is an elevated family room lined with windows, where you can look for whale spouts on the ocean horizon and gather for incredible nightly sunsets. Prepare meals with ease using stainless steel appliances and quartz counterspace in the kitchen, dine in the cozy warmth of the woodstove or central forced heat, and spend your evenings watching movies on Netflix, Hulu Live, or DVD.
Bring your pup along -- this home welcomes up to 2 dogs.

Other Things to Note:
This property is located on a bluff and is not suitable for small children due to the unfenced areas.
Keep your eyes on the horizon from December to April -- gray whales migrate just offshore, and this property has a front-row seat. Visit in spring for wildflower season -- the hills above Gualala and the river trails burst with lupine and California poppies. June through September brings the warmest weather. Morning fog is part of the charm -- it usually clears to reveal blue skies.
Cell service can be spotty along the coast. The home has WiFi for staying connected.
