Set atop a grand vista point, with a stunning panoramic view of Big River Beach, Mendocino Bay, and the historic landmark village of Mendocino, this Greene and Greene-inspired Arts and Crafts style home, has long been regarded as the Crown Jewel of Mendocino. Built from sturdy old-growth redwood indigenous to the region, this home has been lovingly maintained and improved upon by its current long-time residents of 25 years. Offering a rare blend of tranquility and modern convenience, the property is but a moment's drive, bike ride, or stroll to local beaches, kayaking, hiking trails, dining, groceries, boutiques, and art galleries. Wrap-around windows and expansive, multi-level decks run the western expanse of the house, opening onto a breathtaking 180-degree view shed. Mornings here are ideal for sunrises and birdwatching. All day, one can watch the ever-changing marine layer and weather systems arrive on the horizon. Evenings offer a kaleidoscope of sunsets over the ocean, star gazing and moonlight glittering off the nearby waves. The main entry to this home opens to the ocean view kitchen, dining, and living areas bathed in warm natural light and accented with high ceilings, rich old growth beams, and art nouveau inspired figurehead corbels. The gourmet kitchen has a Viking range, electric oven, cherry cabinetry with a spacious refrigerator, granite countertops, dining bar, and a wood-burning fireplace with an artisan copper surround. The dining area flows to the north of the kitchen, the skylit living room to the east, where there is an additional wood-burning stove. Adjacent is a sunny office with views of the garden and a separate entry. To the south of the living area is a wide hallway with a pantry and half-bath, which leads to the primary bedroom with ocean views, a walk-in closet, and deck access. The ensuite bathroom has two large skylights, a free-standing soaking tub, two vanities with sinks, a large shower, and a separate WC with toilet and bidet. Downstairs leads to a two-car garage and laundry room. The downstairs living suite has separate sliding glass door entries, a full bath, ample closet space, two ocean view bedrooms, and its own patio. It has been pre-plumbed and wired for the installation of an en-suite kitchenette, making this space a flexible option for family, guests or long-term renters to reside in. Included in the sale is a backup generator (essential during North Coast winters) and hot tub.
