The off-grid, three-bedroom home built with stones from the property itself was designed by its architect-owner who specializes in passive solar sustainable architecture.
The house is built in three closely connected but separate wings for the maximum amount of quiet and privacy, each with full direct views of the ocean. The Cottage Wing includes the kitchen, dining area, laundry, bedroom and full bath. The Studio Wing includes a large library and media room with a half bath; the adjacent Main Bedroom and full bath has single spa tub. A few feet away wholly separate stone walled Sunset Room has a magnificent view of the ocean waves and the moon and stars at night from the queen bed. There are also ocean views from the Sunset room bath and shower.

The house complex has a fully stocked library, including a complete collection of music CDs, an extensive DVD film collection. The house has wireless WIFI and HDTV satellite service.

The house has radiant floor heating throughout with tile and maple floors. The bathrooms and kitchen are served by both conventional and reverse osmosis water systems and have granite and onyx counter-tops.

Hiking trails for the Los Padres National Forest begin at the entrance to the private driveway.

There is a wide meadow to west of the house that accesses the coastal cliffside. There are two sets of wooden steps that allow one to cross a fence to enter the meadow and walk to the cliffside. The cliffside path has a descent of about 30 feet to the undeveloped beach which has many small rocky coves. The size of the sandy areas of the beach varies with the time of the daily high and low tides.

A popular public surfing beach, San Dollar State Beach, is 1.3 miles south of Big Sur Stone House and can be reached by biking or by car. Para-gliding the ocean thermals above the property is also a popular local sport.
