Located between Shell Beach and Stengel Beach on the west side of Highway 1, this lovely Sea Ranch getaway offers classic Sea Ranch architecture with cedar walls and an open floorplan. You'll be near the Bluff Trail at this meadow home. The Sea Ranch Lodge is about five miles south, and the green of the Sea Ranch Golf Links is a four-mile drive north. Head to Annapolis Winery (11 miles southeast) for wine tasting or plan a whole day trip and drive north to Fort Bragg to walk on the Glass Beach (64 miles) and then a late lunch in Mendocino.
Walk inside to a two-story living room. The artwork throughout the house is framed photographs of nature on the Sea Ranch, giving an authentic and organic feeling within the home. There's a sunken inglenook with a stone fireplace and a sheltered deck with a built-in table and benches for outdoor dining. Even when it is very windy outside, the sheltered deck offers warmth and remarkable calm from any wind. It is its own microclimate.
When it's mealtime, the kitchen is well-equipped with all major appliances, including a couple of different coffeemakers (with an espresso maker and grinder) and other gadgets like a blender and toaster. Just pick up some groceries at the nearby Surf Market in Gualala and fix up a feast!
This ocean meadow can showcases bedrooms which are equivalent main bedrooms - the main level bedroom with window seat and ocean views opens onto the expansive deck. The upper-level bedroom features a cedar cathedral ceiling, a corner desk, and breathtaking white water downcoast view. Both bedrooms have full baths. The loft is an open concept that includes a queen mattress on a raised platform and overlooks the main level. There is also a desk, flatscreen/Apple TV, and it is just down the hall from the upper main bedroom. The duvet comforters are new, very high quality down duvets as are the new down pillows. Except for the kitchen and loft with meadow views, the principal rooms and large deck all have superb ocean views.
The spacious attached garage features new industrial lighting and a long built-in wood plank table, ideal for work projects. In addition, several comfortable chairs and two market umbrellas can be found by the back door of the garage, next to the outdoor deck. Home features high-speed 1 Gbps Fiber Optic home network. The house works very well for a single guest, as a romantic getaway for a couple or two couples as the home offers equivalent bedroom suites, each on a separate level.
Guests can enjoy additional conveniences like an electric car charging station. Sea Ranch also offers three rec centers with pools, tennis, saunas, and miles and miles of walking/biking trails. Stroll along the Monarch Glen Interpretive Trail or wander down to Shell Beach to enjoy the perfect sunset.

One of the first Sea Ranch houses. Very authentic experience with beautiful meadow and ocean views. Nicely appointed.
10 / 10Outstanding·Nov 2024
Quiet, with sweeping views of meadow and ocean. Great location within the communithy too. Less than 5 minutes to town, 5-7 minutes to the lodge. Centrally located. Stocked house..my friends love coffee (I am tea and found a holder to make a cup with my loose tea leaves!) and there is an entire cabinet dedicated to coffee making equipment. xxx Thi sis a 10 star out of 5.
10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2024
The house is very comfortable, well-equipped and is set in a lovely location with gorgeous ocean views. The proximity to trails was perfect! The private deck is large and great for evening sunsets and the wildlife is amazing; deer, fox, bunnies (bear paw prints on our car one morning - don't keep food in your car!). Overall. We would return to this serene location.
6 / 10Average·Jun 2025
The size is absolutely perfect for our family of three - we loved all the special nooks and crannies, different sitting areas were each unique and my son tested them all! The meadow view is outstanding and you don't feel like anyone is looking in on you in the home, everyone's view seems very well positioned!
