Within expanses of lushly beautiful deciduous and evergreen forests, olive and fruit orchards, a thriving pond, groves of oak, a robust solar array and private well water, sits a bathing house with sauna, a guest suite, an outdoor chef’s event kitchen, flower and seasonal vegetable gardens, and two meticulously built residences with ample, open-concept gathering spaces throughout this breathtaking wonderland.

The estate overlooking the lagoon and its sunny microclimate make this a favorite destination for birds and other wildlife. The land offers many different interdependent environments that make this more-than-human ecosystem thrive. Surrounded by redwood trees sits a vibrant pond, stocked with bass and trout, and frequented by the white and grey herons that give the land its name. Between the Earthhouse, Waterhouse and Skyhouse are citrus, apple, fig, kumquat, plum, avocado, pomegranate, pear and olive orchards. At the foot of a dell of coast live oaks affectionately called Auntie’s Hill is an extraordinary tree, Grandfather Oak, wrapped in a generous cedar deck.

Traversing the land, is a maintained trail system, perfect for walking, biking, ATV’s and horseback riding. Two camping enclaves, at differing altitudes, have been equipped for RV hook-ups with water and electricity. The neighbors to the northwest extend the view over their open acreage as far as the eye can see.

The sense and scale of openness and privacy for a coastal property is almost unimaginable in the bay area today.
