Property Description

This unique Big Sur Modern oceanfront home is constructed with poured-in-place aggregate concrete and redwood in a playful series of hexagons. Built in 1968, at the height of mid-century modernism, this is one of iconic local designer Warren Leopold’s architectural masterpieces. Details include stained glass windows with thinly sliced agate inserted to add detail and whimsy, a two-story turret, hexagonal rooms accentuated with whitewashed redwood, skylights and dentil work throughout. Wraparound decking and secluded patios create an intimate setting for entertaining. The seaview kitchen is adjacent to the unique indoor-outdoor bar and to the living room and its built-in window seats, fireplace, and expansive ocean views. Repeating the hexagonal theme, the master bedroom features a large domed skylight, fireplace, and wraparound windows that allow sweeping views of the coast from south to north. The en-suite bath includes an ocean view jetted tub, separate shower, and large dressing room and closet. There are two additional bedrooms, each with en-suite baths. One is outfitted with a fireplace, the other a private entry which could be used as an in-law or au-pair suite. A successful permitted vacation rental, this unforgettable home has tide pools just steps below its deck. One block from Fiscalini Ranch oceanfront bluff, it is minutes away from restaurants and shops. Hearst Castle, Piedras Blancas Elephant Seal rookery, and world-class wineries are within a short drive.
