This Sea Ranch home frames the Pacific like a painting -- and the view changes by the hour. Soak in the hot tub as the sun dips below the Pacific. A warm fire and ocean views anchor cozy evenings in. Room for 6 in this 2-bedroom home. Just a 8-minute walk to Shell Beach tidepools. Trails, tidepools, and two heated community pools -- all within reach. Salt air drifts through the windows as the Pacific puts on its daily show just beyond the deck.
The pinnacle of Sea Ranch style and comfort awaits at this light-filled coastal retreat, gorgeously situated with unobstructed ocean and meadow views in two directions. Designed by Don Jacobs (the renowned architect of the iconic Sea Ranch Chapel), this quintessential Sea Ranch home offers a private hot tub on its ocean-facing deck. You’ll also have easy access to the community’s heated outdoor pools, tennis courts, and saunas.
Sit down for coffee each morning in the glassed-in breakfast room and enjoy every season; whether it’s bright and sunny or pouring down rain, you will have fabulous views! Take daily walks along the magnificent Bluff Trail to nearby wild beaches, and come home to the luxe comforts of a wood-burning fireplace, built-in window seats, a streamlined office nook, and a jetted bathtub in the main suite.
The private Sea Ranch community offers three recreation centers for your use, including the large outdoor heated pool, saunas, and tennis, basketball, and volleyball courts at the Ohlson Recreation Center one mile down the road. Follow meandering trails across the bluffs and through hedgerows, look for butterflies on the Monarch Glen Trail, or spend a day out on the greens of the Sea Ranch Golf Links (four miles north).
The small, charming town of Gualala is six miles north, where you’ll find markets, local restaurants, and several galleries and shops to explore.

The drive from San Francisco is approximately 2.5 hours via Highway 101 to Highway 1. Fly into Charles M. Schulz-Sonoma County Airport (STS) in Santa Rosa, about 1.5 hours east, and rent a car. The Highway 1 drive along the coast is spectacular and worth building into your travel day.
Pool passes provided for up to six guests
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.
Whale watching season runs from December through April -- grab the binoculars and watch for gray whale spouts from your window. Spring (April-June) brings a wildflower show across the coastal meadows -- lupine, poppies, and iris paint the landscape. Summer (June-September) brings the warmest days and longest light. Morning fog is common along the coast -- it usually burns off by midday.
Cell service can be spotty along the coast. The home has WiFi for staying connected.

About the area
Here in the west side meadows of Sea Ranch, you'll be half a mile from beautiful Stengel Beach and just over a mile from Shell Beach, where you can explore tide pools teeming with marine life and watch the harbor seals frolic. Gualala is a quick 10-minute drive south for groceries, dining, and fuel. For a scenic outing, Jenner and Bodega Bay are further down Highway 1.
