Cambria - Beach Property For Sale #7215764

The pinnacle of art, architecture, and coastal living, 2431 Sherwood Drive is a rare oceanfront architectural masterpiece designed by legendary local architect Warren Leopold, a protege of Frank Lloyd Wright. Built at the height of mid-century modernism, this iconic Big Sur Modern residence is constructed of poured-in-place aggregate concrete and redwood, expressed in a sophisticated series of hexagonal spaces that celebrate light, geometry, and the natural environment.

Set forward on a seawall-protected bluff, the home offers over 180 degrees of unobstructed panoramic ocean views, with daily sightings of whales, dolphins, otters, seabirds, tide pools below, and spectacular sunsets. Thick exposed aggregate walls frame expansive new dual-pane windows and signature stained glass--some inlaid with sliced agate--bringing exceptional light, color, and texture throughout.

The open-concept kitchen, dining, and living areas are designed for both comfortable living and effortless entertaining. The chef's kitchen features top-of-the-line appliances, custom cabinetry, and a generous granite island oriented toward the sea. Redwood beams, whitewashed redwood paneling, slate and stone surfaces, built-in seating, fireplaces, skylights, dentil detailing, and an indoor-outdoor bar enhance both function and character.

A protected ocean-view courtyard and wraparound decks with new glass railings extend the living space outdoors, while private concrete stairs provide rare direct access to the shoreline and tide pools.

The home includes three en-suite bedrooms. The primary suite is accessed by a dramatic primary suite accessed via a stained-glass-lined turret staircase, featuring wraparound windows, domed skylight, fireplace, spa-style bath with ocean-view soaking tub, connected office, and walk-in closet. Downstairs a second en-suite bedroom has own fireplace.

A secondary living area with its own living room, laundry, and the third en-suite bedroom with separate entrance adds flexibility and income potential. The property is a successful, permitted vacation rental.

Located among Monterey cypress, close to Fiscalini Ranch Preserve, Moonstone Beach, Lampton Cliffs County Park, and the West Village of Cambria, this one-of-a-kind home offers architectural significance, privacy, and an unparalleled connection to the Pacific Ocean.
