A walkable, in-town location meets a tranquil country setting at this inviting home in Gualala, a beautiful escape with blue-water views of the Pacific Ocean. In this secluded coastal town on the rugged Northern California Coast, you'll enjoy a quiet piece of property that's surrounded by wind-blown cypress and lush vegetation, backing up to a seasonal creek. The interior makes gorgeous use of natural wood, including beamed ceilings, richly hued walls, and a staircase that was hand-crafted in the Craftsman style. When the sun is shining on the coast, you can walk to the bluff at Robinson Gulch, light the gas grill for an afternoon barbecue, or simply relax in the fresh air in the yard or on one of the two decks with seasonal views of the creek. And when the fog rolls in, you can retreat indoors to toss the provided beach towels in the washer/dryer, warm up by the gas fireplace, and watch a DVD or stream a favorite on the Smart TV. When it's time to turn in, you'll find one bedroom with a queen-size bed on the main level and another, loft-style room with a queen-size bed upstairs; both bedrooms have access to an outdoor deck.
What's nearby:
This home sits just north of downtown Gualala, between California Highway 1 and the ocean. You'll be only half a mile from the heart of town, allowing you to easily walk to such local favorites as Four-Eyed Frog Books, Trinks Cafe, and the Surf Market with its fantastic weekend barbecues. Glennen Beach and Cooks Beach are both less than two miles north. If you're looking to take a scenic drive, head north on Highway 1 to the charming town of Anchor Bay (three miles north) and the beautiful Point Arena Lighthouse (18 miles north) for sweeping views of ocean waves and rugged sea stacks.
