Find the perfect spot for your loved ones to gather at this bright, private home in Sea Ranch. Take in the scenery in this private and spacious setting while enjoying the best of this storied seaside community is at your fingertips - a private courtyard including a hot tub, a distant ocean view from the deck, and the golf course, the Del Mar Rec Center, and downtown Gualala within minutes.

This home sits in an open meadow just east of Highway 1. Scenic hiking trails are accessible from the property, Del Mar's heated outdoor pool, tennis courts, and saunas are less than a half-mile walk from the house, and the oceanfront Bluff Trail is only a block or so beyond that.

Enter by way of a sheltered courtyard, where you'll find the hot tub, a gas grill, and cushioned outdoor seating to enjoy in the afternoon sunshine. Inside the main part of the home, you'll be greeted by a two-story great room with generous windows and a gas fireplace to warm you as you watch movies at night. This space blends into an open kitchen with stainless steel appliances, a large island with bar seating, and an adjacent dining room table. An expansive deck - with hammocks, loungers, and rocking chairs - wraps around the house and is accessible through multiple glass doors.

The second-floor loft is a beautiful spot to escape with a good book, set up your laptop, or enjoy a board game. When it's time to turn in, you'll find that each bedroom has its own bathroom and direct access to the outdoors, including a primary suite with a TV, a soaking tub and a shower, and a separate dressing room. The third bedroom is in a detached casita across the courtyard with its own shuffleboard table, refrigerator, and workspace.
