Oceanview home with hot tub, deck, fireplace

Summary:

Where the forest opens to coastal meadows and the shimmer of the Pacific beyond. Soak in the hot tub as the sun dips below the Pacific. Curl up by the fireplace as fog rolls in off the Pacific. Room for 6 in this 3-bedroom home. Near the heated community pool. The Sonoma Coast's best-kept secret is waiting for you. The light here shifts by the hour -- silver mornings, gold afternoons, pink-and-orange sunsets. Morning fog and afternoon sun create a rhythm you'll settle into by day two.



The Space:

Soak in the spectacular surroundings of this tranquil custom Sea Ranch home. Experience the best of the Sea Ranch environment between the meadow and the 6th fairway that ends at the driving range/clubhouse. Admire the sunsets from the privacy of the home and its cypress tree framed ocean views from the kitchen and upper living room across the meadow, or follow the short path and take in sights and smells of the Pacific Ocean along the Bluff Trail. Don’t forget to keep an eye out for passing whales and birds! Take a dip in the private hot tub. Then come inside and cozy up to the wood burning fireplace (wood provided) and enjoy the custom handmade furniture and unique interior design..



An ideal escape for those in search of daytime activity and evening relaxation. The gourmet neighborhood market has all you need to prepare a delicious home-cooked meal in the chef’s kitchen fitted with top of the line stainless steel appliances, six-burner gas range, and unique copper countertops.

Other Things to Note:

Best for guests aged 12 and up



Sea Ranch has three recreation centers with heated pools, saunas, and tennis courts. Access passes are provided with your stay -- check availability upon arrival as these shared amenities can be popular during peak times.



Exterior lighting is minimal by design to preserve the stunning dark sky -- bring a flashlight for evening walks and enjoy some of the best stargazing on the California coast.



Keep your eyes on the horizon from December to April -- gray whales migrate just offshore, and this property has a front-row seat. Visit in spring and the meadows explode with wildflowers. April through June is peak bloom season along the Sonoma Coast. The warmest months are June through September. Expect coastal fog most mornings that gives way to sunny afternoons.



Cell service can be spotty along the coast. The home has WiFi for staying connected.
