“Top of the World”, in the sun with beautiful ocean views! That’s where this very custom, well-built (Wayne Gracey) home resides. Views of the ocean and the full curve of the north coast to the Piedras Blanca Lighthouse along with the mountains capturing Hearst Castle.
Commanding architecture (Gary Swauger) includes beautiful timbered ceilings, Saltillo tile and solid oak floors, European appliances, a huge library/gallery atrium in surround of the upper floor and open in center to the first floor below. Additionally, a spectacular “viewing room” which is the art studio / office / guest quarters / or “as needed” room. The sunken tea viewing space in the main living area is also a unique feature – this house has a personality of it’s own!
The front yard features granite stone steps, a large aggregate driveway and patios and certain exotic plantings. Bring your ideas and touches to update the ground-level decks & fencing. The freestanding “Garden Room” to the back is a nice retreat for relaxing, art projects or seedlings.
Custom built for the owner in 1992, this house has never before been on the market.
