First time on the market in generations, this home enjoys an incredible location on Ward Ave, just a short walk to the rolling surf of the Pacific. Once there, the haul road can take you north to the Dunes, south through MacKerricher State Park, all the way into Fort Bragg. Imagine having a nice dinner in town and strolling home along the waterfront! Custom built in 1970, this is an upside-down'' home with the living room and kitchen on the second floor to take advantage of the views and natural light. This configuration also lends itself to passive solar - the east/west orientation keeps the home warmer during colder months. Open beams throughout lend it a rustic charm with solid bones. Overlarge 24x24 deck on the lee side great for gatherings. Abundant storage with large carport and outbuildings. Oversized 1.29 acre lot. This home could use a touch of updating. A great opportunity to have your own ocean sanctuary.
