Remarks

Located just around the corner from world-famous Nepenthe, the Henry Miller Library, and Deetjen's, this 3 bed/3.5 bath home, set on 12+ acres, enjoys fantastic ocean views and serenity only found in "God's greatest meeting of land and sea." Overlooking Packard Ranch looking south down the dramatic Big Sur coastline, the home has a total of ~3,048 SqFt of living space with extra storage areas and beautiful views from every room. Highlights include an expansive wraparound deck, spacious living room with fireplace, vaulted ceilings and skylights that flood the home with natural light, and a comfortable primary suite with soaking tub and a fireplace to cozy up and watch the fog roll in. The home is perfect for a full time residence, but also provides other options as one of the bedrooms can function as an attached studio apartment having a full bath and second kitchen. Enjoy spectacular sunsets and the idyllic central coast lifestyle with your very own Big Sur Escape.
