Blufftop home with hot tub & forever oceanfront views & private cottage

Summary:

Salt spray, crashing waves, and a front-row seat to the Pacific -- welcome to the Mendocino Coast. Soak in the hot tub as the sun dips below the Pacific. A warm fire and ocean views anchor cozy evenings in. Room for 10 in this 4-bedroom home. Restaurants, river access, and Gualala Point Regional Park are a very short drive away. River kayaking, beach bonfires, and redwood hikes -- all from your doorstep.



The Space:

Wake up in a newly updated Sea Ranch home made for slowing down—multi-level living, coastal air, and a wraparound deck that invites you outside morning and night. From select spots—especially the primary suite deck and the downstairs deck—you can catch a glimpse of the Pacific above the treetops. The setting feels unmistakably Sonoma Coast.



Outdoor living

The deck wraps the home, creating room to spread out: soak in the private hot tub, circle up at the gas fire pit on chilly evenings, and after dark, take in some of the coast’s best stargazing with minimal light around you. Barbecue on the patio when you want dinner outdoors, then carry the easy mood back inside.



Living, dining & kitchen

The heart of the home is bright and thoughtfully laid out, with evergreens and treetops framing the windows—plus those occasional ocean glimpses from the right angles. Cook with confidence in an open kitchen with upgraded appliances, including a gas range, French-door refrigerator, and wine cooler. Start the day in a window-lined breakfast room, then gather in a separate dining area for longer meals and conversation. In the evening, step down into the sunken living room—gas fireplace, board games, and a natural place to land after a day outside.



Bedrooms & bathrooms

All three bedrooms include en suite bathrooms and smart TVs. The main-level primary suite adds a dedicated yoga space (mats, balance ball, and weights) that opens to the deck—easy stretches with fresh air, or a quiet reset between hikes.



Exploring from here

The home sits just up the hill from Shoreline Highway, with a Tesla charger in the garage for day trips along the coast. Moonraker—the nearest Sea Ranch recreation center, with an outdoor pool, tennis/pickleball, and saunas—is a little over a mile south. You’re about a mile from Pebble Beach, Black Point Beach, and the Bluff Trail, with The Sea Ranch Lodge roughly two miles away, Stewarts Point about four miles, and Gualala about eight miles—all an easy, scenic drive.

Whale watching season runs from December through April -- grab the binoculars and watch for gray whale spouts from your window. Spring wildflowers (April-June) blanket the coastal headlands and the banks of the Gualala River with vibrant color. Summer on the Mendonoma Coast (June-September) means warm days and the occasional morning fog that burns off by lunch.



Cell service can be spotty along the coast. The home has WiFi for staying connected.
