Nestled just moments from Mendocino Village yet wonderfully secluded, this charming Craftsman Cottage—constructed in 1988 from full-size old-growth redwood and stone—offers a serene retreat with sweeping views of Big River Beach, the State Park, and the Pacific beyond. Fully renovated and thoughtfully designed to make the most of its extraordinary setting, the home invites you to live, dine, and unwind surrounded by natural beauty visible through expansive picture windows. The main residence features two comfortable bedrooms and loft, two well-appointed baths, generous decks, and an abundance of natural light, with the living room centered around a striking river-rock fireplace that adds warmth and rustic elegance. Just steps away, a separate two-car garage with workshop space below is topped by a private guest suite complete with its own bath and a deck perched among the treetops—an ideal haven for visitors or creative retreat. Mature gardens, forest views, and unforgettable sunsets over the coast complete this enchanting property, making it a rare offering in one of Mendocino’s most breathtaking locations.

This property is one of nineteen residences comprising the Big River Vista subdivision (considered part of the Mendocino Township). Water for Big River Vista is provided by the Big River Vista Mutual Water Company which is wholly owned by the subdivision homeowners. Sewer service is provided by the Mendocino City Community Services District (MCCSD). This historically protected subdivision only allows rentals of 30 days or more, to ensure privacy, security, and cordial relationships with neighbors.
