45680 Cypress Drive

A rare opportunity to own a genuinely special oceanfront property just north of the town of Mendocino in the desirable Coast Highlands subdivision. Situated on nearly an acre at the end of a private road, the property has unobstructed ocean views and a large ocean-side deck designed to expand living space and take full advantage of the panoramic coastline views and spectacular sunsets. Mature cypress trees buffer the street while the home opens toward the water. A detached covered parking and storage structure with covered breezeway adds meaningful square footage beyond the main residence; a valuable distinction for future expansion permitting in this coastal jurisdiction. The open living room features vaulted ceilings, a wood burning fireplace with stone hearth, and a raised dining area adjacent to the kitchen. Both bedrooms are en suite, with a tiled sun room sitting area off the primary. The single-story, 2 bed/2 bath home has been a beloved family retreat since it was built in 1973 and is now offered for the first time. Priced to reflect its current condition and ready for a full reimagining. Inspections available upon request. For a buyer with vision, the combination of location, lot, privacy, and existing footprint is rarely available at any price.
