Property Description

Unparalleled aesthetics are on display in this once-in-a-lifetime ocean view masterpiece on the coveted western edge of historic Mendocino! An award-winning remodel of the property was completed in 2017, and no expense was spared in transforming this historic Victorian, originally built in 1876, into an oasis of effortless beauty and modern luxury that must be seen to be properly appreciated. Among the new virtues: a true chef's kitchen boasts a Lacanche double oven, Miele refrigerator and two Fisher-Paykel dishwasher drawers incorporated into custom cabinetry, Calacatta Cremo marble counters and wall accents, and a massive island bordered by custom benches. Each of the three bedrooms has its own personality: the cozy downstairs child's bedroom is light and efficient. Upstairs, the primary bedroom suite boasts both a Tabarka-tiled shower, a large soaking tub in its own alcove, and wide views of the Pacific and the Point Cabrillo lighthouse, while the surprisingly spacious secondary bedroom also looks oceanward and has its own full bath. Lighting of the home was of paramount importance--new recessed ceiling lights throughout are complemented by countless carefully chosen fixtures which celebrate both history and modernity. The flooring is a mix of new wide-plank oak, hand-painted tile, and original Douglas Fir, and warmed primarily by radiant floor heat. The tiled entry is wide and long enough to house a piano, the living room is sumptuous, with built-in cabinets roomy enough to hide a large-screen TV, the laundry room houses a retractable drying rack and farmhouse sink, and a modern storm door conceals a wine cellar beneath the home. Tucked behind the home is a beautiful 500+sf two-story redwood guest house with vaulted ceiling, a full kitchen, and gorgeous views, remodeled in the same style. Outside are two other outbuildings: a versatile one-car garage now outfitted with a home gym and office, and a two-closeted storage building. Renowned high-end landscape designer/artist Gary Ratway has transformed the outdoor spaces into lush expressions of beauty, supported by a full irrigation system and a dedicated 1k gal water storage tank, linked to the separate 3k gal purified residential water supply. Two flagstone patios and a large hot tub with outdoor shower complete the property, while the town of Mendocino, the Mendocino Headlands State Park, and Portuguese Beach all await, just a minute's stroll out the door. A Mendocino dream like no other!
