Dramatic white water and peaceful meadow views from this architectural gem! Perched on a gentle hillside, with commons on three sides for ultimate privacy. The trail to the bluff lies along the back property line. Built in 2002 with the idea of bringing a sailboat to land, 'Sailfish' remains true to the original Sea Ranch concept of living lightly on the land. The home was featured in the 2004 & 2013 editions of Don Lyndon & Jim Alinder's book, 'The Sea Ranch'. The 1 bedroom, 1.5 bath main home and covered carport was designed by Lisa Scott-Dundee, AIA. A 2016 addition, designed by Steve Brodie, AIA, added the 1 BR/1BA guest studio and garage. Numerous thoughtful and artistic details can be found..including Mojave Blue wall tiles, recycled glass kitchen countertops, glass tile mosaic artistry, porcelain tile floors and limestone slab stairs. Seamless indoor/outdoor living is achieved with wrap-around ocean view decks and inner courtyard, ocean view hot tub, fenced yard, heated outdoor shower/fisherman's station and a private bedroom rooftop deck. For efficiency - a 6.3 KW solar system with battery back-up, on-demand hot water, EV charger, keyless entry, high efficiency HVAC heater, Jotul gas stove and Hunter Douglas motorized roller shades. Never before on the market!
