Puente Rizal, Stinson Beach

Sold, S4,750,000

Hidden at the end of a cul-de-sac above the shimmering ocean and 3.5 mile crescent expanse of sandy beach is this stunning sunset spot. Meticulously built in 2009 with astounding views, this two-story modern architectural design expands horizontally, laying low and continuous with the terrain.

High ceilings and Kalwall skylights create a museum atmosphere of natural light from sunrise to sunset. Italian ceramic tile and hardwood floors are heated by radiant Warmboard technology. Windows and 12’ sliding doors made by Jeldwen offer a view of the ocean from every room once you open the automatic blinds. From indoors and outdoors, the ocean is amplified, you can feel it with all your senses.

An entertainer’s dream, the seamless kitchen is anchored by a large island with Caesarstone countertops, European SieMatic cabinetry, two sinks, two Miele ovens and two Miele dishwashers, a Thermadore sub zero refrigerator and tasteful Dornbracht faucets. The main and split floor consist of the kitchen, open living room, office, a main sleeping suite and a generous walk in closet.

The lower floor transitions down to the additional bedrooms, laundry room and access to outdoor gathering spaces. Decks and patios are a repetitive theme, each room having its own door to the outside encouraging circulation and connection.

This extraordinary beach house is nestled between the beauteous Mt. Tamalpais Ridge, the Pacific Ocean and the protected Monarch Butterfly Preserve adjoining the property. Mt. Tam trails, the Stinson Beach village and the Stinson Beach public beach are right outside the door and its 45 minutes to San Franscisco.
