Property Description

Beyond a long private driveway, where towering redwoods filter the afternoon light, this classic 1971 A-frame offers the timeless charm of a true Mendocino Coast cabin. Set on one peaceful acre overlooking a forested gulch, the property is surrounded by native rhododendrons and framed by expansive picture windows that bring the beauty of the outdoors inside. Inside, the home's character is unmistakable. Beautiful clear-heart redwood is showcased throughout the interior, creating a warm, timeless atmosphere that perfectly complements the surrounding forest. Built during an era when locally sourced old-growth redwood was prized for its exceptional quality and craftsmanship, the home stands as a tribute to the Mendocino Coast's rich building heritage. A striking clear-heart redwood staircase leads to the impressive 504-square-foot loft-style primary bedroom, where expansive windows on both the east and west sides capture peaceful forest views and fill the space with natural light throughout the day. Offering 1,196 square feet, two bedrooms, and one bathroom, the thoughtfully designed floor plan provides flexibility and privacy. The spacious downstairs guest bedroom features an oversized walk-in closet and its own exterior entrance to a private deck, creating an inviting retreat for guests or the perfect space for a home office with direct access outdoors. Additional highlights include a brand-new metal roof, perimeter foundation, wood-burning fireplace, propane heater, water storage tank, and storage shed. Whether you're searching for a peaceful full-time residence, a weekend coastal escape, or an investment opportunity as a vacation rental, this property offers exceptional potential. While the home would benefit from cosmetic updates to suit your personal style, its timeless architecture and extraordinary setting provide the perfect canvas. Located in the highly desirable Forest Lane neighborhood, you'll enjoy peaceful privacy just minutes from MacKerricher State Park, Ward Avenue Beach, Virgin Creek's renowned surf and walking trails, and downtown amenities. Authentic craftsmanship, natural beauty, and classic cabin charm come together in one of the Mendocino Coast's most treasured settings.
