430 Horseshoe Hill, Bolinas

Sold 3,650,000

Originally conceived as an artist-musician-writer retreat, several structures stand on the 3.4 acre property. The buildings were hand-crafted from rare hand-milled, reclaimed redwood. The Sunset Award-winning design by Jeff Morse features sliding Japanese-style doors, hipped-gable roofs, and eyelash-shaped eaves. It elegantly blends a Zen sensibility with a Craftsmen core.

Imagine yourself from within this magic. Take a book and snuggle into one of several nook-overlooks or on the sky-bridge connecting the Main House to the Bridge House. Bathe in a sunken, tiled bathtub. Gather your family around the central hearth—a beautiful concrete fireplace designed by a master-craftsman. Record music in the Gate House studio space. Write your novel while sipping homemade lavender tea. Meditate inside the Cottage.

Outside, enjoy the sun on one of many sundecks. Dance across your meadow. Explore a forested gully. Paint the redwood covered hillside and valley landscape. Play basketball on your own court. Pick vegetables and herbs from your garden. Bike or walk to the Bolinas Lagoon or to the Bolinas beaches. Take a short drive to the redwoods, world-class surfing, waterfalls spilling onto the beach, rustic lighthouses, mystery trails, and fantastic farm-to-table meals.

Be on-the-grid or off. Harvest your own electricity from a solar panel farm that generates enough power for the entire property’s regular electricity usage. Draw pristine water from your own well.
