A great property with flexibility for families and friends to unite and gather. The approximately 1,000 square foot main two-bedroom and two bath home encapsulates a powerful zen spirit of the surrounding setting. Sunny patios and decks for relaxation and reflection. Up above is a newer one-bedroom and one bath modern-rustic cottage of 600 square feet that provides more private outdoor spaces. Both homes are effortlessly simple and well maintained. The property is comprised of 9 acres where you sit above the canopy of the Sycamore Canyon. Suitable as a primary or vacation home, it has great flexibility for families and is centrally located to Big Sur restaurants, amenities and parks. Used as a refuge by the owner for 30 years, daily highlights include the easy walk down to the famous Pfeiffer Beach where you walk through a grove of cypress trees that opens to windswept dunes, sculpted rocks and a soft-sand beach amongst the crashing surf of the Pacific.
