10 Canyon Avenue, Bolinas, CA 94924

It's a feeling, not just a house. With a glimpse of the ocean from the main residence to stunning views from the top deck, this quintessential Bohemian refuge is an ideal spot to recharge. Here, days are measured by the tides and changing light, while the simple pleasures of life by the sea are amplified.

A handcrafted brick patio outside a bejeweled front door is the perfect spot for slow mornings, hot coffee, and soothing sea air. Inside, warm knotty pine walls, seasoned fir floors, wood ceilings, corbels and selected vintage stained glass are calming.

Warm yourself by the wood-burning fireplace in the main living area where there's space for both gathering and quiet retreat. The lower level provides private guest quarters, full bath, sauna, a whimsical turret and a hand-carved door depicting whales. The top level offers two detached cabins on a roomy deck where a hot tub is positioned for optimal viewing of daytime surfers or nighttime twinkling lights across the sea.
