Property Description

A Must See one of a kind Ocean Front architectural gem! Designed and built by Warren Leopold in 1966, it perfectly captures the organic design ethos of the Big Sur era, blending with and inviting the natural environment into the home. Built primarily of old growth redwood, exposed aggregate concrete and glass, the design genius and craftsmanship are truly breathtaking, as are the stunning unobstructed views and privacy that this beautiful home offers, which includes a private stairway down to the water and a pre-Coastal Act seawall. The established low maintenance Zen style garden, a spacious courtyard that offers a covered seating area as well as the ocean facing flagstone patio allow for many outside dining choices. Inside, the living area has large plate glass windows that feature epic views of the Pacific Ocean. A comfortable platform style bed & a free standing gas fireplace offer warmth and a cozy atmosphere so you can relax for hours, or even days, enjoying the beauty that surrounds you. There is a full kitchen, including a newer gas range, to create and share memorable meals. A separate bedroom with 2 twin beds and built-in cupboards offers a place for guests to reside. The bathtub is a work of art, including ocean views! You will be able to enjoy all that nature has to offer, including breathtaking sunsets, at the edge of the sea in your own piece of paradise. Otters, whales, seals and all the seafaring birdlife thrive here on the Central Coast as Cambria is a part of the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary. The entrance to the Fiscalini Ranch Preserve, which sits on a bluff headland with miles of walking trails, is just down the street. This home has not been on the market since it was built, over 50 years ago. It has been a successful licensed rental since 2005 and has been a source of joy and beauty for the many guests who have stayed here.
