(population, 18) The original Victorian 2-story house was built in 1880, and carefully preserved in its original glory. There are six other farm buildings and a corral. The Jewel of the property is a 140-Year-old Ficus Fig Tree that stands next to the main house like a gentle sheltering giant. This property is dappled with stands of Eucalyptus, Monterey Cypress, and Pepper corn trees. You can hike up the gently sloped hill behind the property to a stunning view of Morro Rock. This property is centrally located between Cambria to the north and Cayucos to the south.
