Bubblesitter, the work of your (expensive) Seattle architect got me looking again last night into some of my “choice” retirement havens and I found a listing featured in Sunset Mag nearly 40 years ago that is “totally me.”
Ironically, over 32 years ago, I stayed in the loft of 3-story cedar home very close to this property for a few days. I’ve only visited Muir Woods/Beach and Stinson Beach once since then. Not only do these beaches bring back many memories of childhood day trips for me, the beauty and ambiance of this spectacular coastline (all the way to Eureka, but ESP. HERE), is unmatched in this state, IMO. Mendocino Coast comes in a close second, Monterrey/Pebble Beach third, the OC 4th and LJ Shores 5th. I can feel the cool breeze just gazing at the photos of the listing shown below. Love the WHOLE area!
Here’s an (expensive) property of mid-century design with an unmatched view further up the coast in Mendocino County. Enjoy!
Guess these two properties don’t qualify as “mtn cabins” but IMHO, they’re even better, what with the “woods and beach” all in the same place . . . . lol![/quote]
Wow, Mendocino prices are out of sight. My father lived there in a cabin house with wood burning stove for heat back in the late 80’s. He loved it….it was boring for me in my 20’s, but such a beautiful place. The headlands are amazing. Did you ever sit on the Philosophers Bench?
