Iconic Hedgerow Demonstration Home designed by AIA Joseph Esherick,landscape architect Lawrence Halprin & built by Matt Sylvia. A beacon of modernism on the North California Coast the Hedgerow homes were envisioned as a progressive, inclusive community guided by the principles of good design & harmony with nature. The houses served as a model for The Sea Ranch development, taking inspiration from vernacular form with natural weathered, rustic wood materials, & sloped shed roofs. The meadow here seems to almost extend into the house, with a winter stream passing behind & trailing to the sea. As you enter the home from the central wind protected courtyard the Black Point Beach ocean views lead you out across the meadow through windows of the living room. The most dramatic place in the house, is alongside the kitchen, a dining room with a full windowed bay that projects out from the main volume toward the ocean. This space, large enough for a long table, & is completely exposed to the striking views up the north coast & the surf crashing on Black Point. The three bedrooms plus loft & 2 baths with each bedroom having garden access. Radiant heat warms the home. Only 2nd owner. Minutes to rec center, beach & dining. Come enjoy nature & postcard views where the spirit of Sea Ranch began
