177 Dipsea Rd, Stinson Beach, CA 94970

Set along a quiet stretch of Seadrift, 177 Dipsea Road is a beautifully-designed example of California coastal modern architecture by Turnbull Griffin Haesloop Architects, built by Sawyer Construction in 2014. Clean-lined and understated, the home makes a thoughtful connection to the surrounding landscape. Year-round southern exposure and high ceilings bring steady natural light and create an open, relaxed feel. Warm cedar ceilings, paired with crisp white walls and wide-plank oak floors, maple cabinetry, a walnut-topped island, and Heath tile: simple, timeless materials that make the space feel refined and comfortable. The large double lot affords generous comfort: the great room is ideal for gathering with friends and family, while each of the four bedrooms is spacious and thoughtfully designed for privacy. Every room is positioned to take in the views, with the inner lagoon on one side and the broader expanse of Bolinas Lagoon on the other. At the center of the home, the dining room is wrapped in oversized windows, framing the landscape like a living painting. With over 100 species of birds passing through, the scene is always shifting. Outside, the vertical cedar siding has weathered to a soft gray that blends naturally with the coastal surroundings. Large windows and sliding glass doors open to expansive cedar decks, creating an easy indoor-outdoor flow. The multi-level decking, bordered by mature olive trees, offers space and privacy. The upper deck includes a built-in BBQ and dining area, and a gas fire pit for relaxed evenings, while a stainless steel hot tub offers a perfect place to warm up after a day at the beach. 120 feet of lagoon frontage offers an openness that few homes can match, and the lower deck provides more lounging space and easy water access. Designed with both privacy and connection in mind, it balances quiet retreats with welcoming gathering spaces. It's a home that feels comfortable, unforced, and deeply tied to its setting- where the mountains meet the sea, and life slows to match the rhythm of the landscape.
