First time on the market, this treasured 1953 coastal bungalow is ideally located just minutes from historic Mendocino, Noyo Harbor, and the redwoods along scenic Highway 1. The 2-bedroom, 1-bath home features timeless redwood construction, original tile work, and a nostalgic retro kitchen that reflects its enduring character. Set on over an acre of commercially zoned land with a partial ocean view, the property offers abundant space for gardens, recreation, and future possibilities. The commercial zoning also presents potential for continued residential use, long-term rental income, or vacation rental opportunities, subject to buyer verification and applicable regulations. A rare opportunity to reimagine a classic coastal property in an exceptional location.
