A ride out Navarro Ridge reveals homes untroubled by time - this romantic and private getaway or full-time property is no exception. In the sunbelt and adjacent to thousands of acres of forest land, make this a signature Mendocino Coast retreat. Designed to be sustainable, solar panels are tied into PGE, a large backup generator provides backup power, a second well. A large open yard meadow gives plenty of sun to beds to grow your own veggies, as well as a path that wends in and around an established garden, replete with benches to sit and read. Lounge on the deck for dinner and drinks, lie in the hammock, dip in the hot tub and watch the stars. Vaulted, open-beam ceilings, custom woodwork, rough-hewn shingles for the siding, covered porches - a magical, must-see property.

Forest Land District
This district is intended to create and preserve areas suited for the growing, harvesting and production of timber and timber-related products. Processing of products produced on the premises would be permitted as would certain commercial activities associated with timber production and the raising of livestock. Typically the F-L District would be applied to lands not zoned Timberland Production but which have the present or future potential for timber production, intermixed smaller parcels and other contiguous lands, the inclusion of which is necessary for the protection of efficient management of timber resource lands.
