About this home

SANCTUARY AT MOLERA: Located on a private gated road that stretches from Pfeiffer Beach to The River Inn, this 5 acre ultra-quiet & private Big Sur homestead borders Andrew Molera State Park's nearly 5000 acres of wildlands, beaches, and river. Yet, it is also minutes by car from the storied gathering places and provisions of the Big Sur valley. From the house, stunning views of sacred Pico Blanco mountain tower over epic views of the Big Sur river valley and its rolling hills and watersheds. This is the setting where a beloved Big Sur couple (of artists!) built their dream home in 1993, and have lovingly cared for it ever since. The home they built is a fully permitted, impossibly humble and rustic abode with decks and garden paths connecting magical handbuilt rooms that exude that old school Big Sur essence that is becoming increasingly rare. The almost 2000 sq ft are made up of 3 BR / 2 Bath's, a cozy kitchen & dining room, a multilevel living room, mud room, and detached artist studio. .. all solar powered. The grand primary bedroom with claw foot tub features a central fireplace and glass ceiling for truly epic stargazing from bed. A surprisingly large portion of the 5 acres is flat or gently sloped making this property a dreamy canvas for future expansion, and creative use.
