Summary:

White water and commons roll past this Phil Bradley-designed Sea Ranch blufftop home built by Harold Halvorsen on a natural rock outcropping near Pebble Beach. Three bedrooms sleep 6, with handmade quilts, decks on both sides, and a wood stove supplementing central heat. Dogs welcome (up to 2) — the bluff trails start minutes from the door.



The Space:

Handmade quilts on the beds and decks on both sides of the house tell you this Phil Bradley Sea Ranch home was built for families who actually live at the coast — perched on a rock outcropping overlooking white water near Pebble Beach, with a wood stove for foggy evenings and room for two dogs.



Designed by Phil Bradley and built by Harold Halvorsen, this 1,300-square feet home is built on a natural rock out-cropping overlooking white water and commons near Pebble Beach. There are nice decks on both sides of the house and a small landscaped yard area and enclosed area. This is a great house for a family of six, including up to two dogs. A wood stove supplements the central forced air heat.



Garage-stair access note: a flight of stairs leads along the garage to the main entry — guests with mobility concerns can circle to the back deck instead.



KITCHEN AND MEALS

The fully equipped kitchen with dishwasher handles group dinners after Pebble Beach walks — quilts on the beds and decks on both sides keep the home feeling personal.



PEBBLE BEACH FOOTING

Pebble Beach access trail is a 14-minute walk, the south community pool and hot tub about 10 minutes on foot, and Black Point headland trails two minutes by car. Gualala's groceries, galleries, and fuel sit 10 minutes north on Highway 1. Phil Bradley's 1,300-square-foot layout keeps commons and white-water views in frame from both decks.

The Neighborhood:

Nearby highlights include community heated pool and hot tub (South) (10-minute walk), Pebble Beach access trail (14-minute walk), Black Point headland trails (2-minute drive). Trails lead from your door to the bluffs, beaches, and through the forest. Heated pools, tennis courts, a fitness center, and The Sea Ranch Lodge round out the amenities. Gualala is a quick 10-minute drive north for groceries, dining, and fuel. For a scenic outing, Jenner and Bodega Bay are further down Highway 1.



Getting Around:

The drive from San Francisco is approximately 2.5 hours via Highway 101 to Highway 1. Fly into Charles M. Schulz-Sonoma County Airport (STS) in Santa Rosa, about 1.5 hours east, and rent a car. The Highway 1 drive along the coast is spectacular and worth building into your travel day.



Other Things to Note:

Sea Ranch has three recreation centers with heated pools, saunas, and tennis courts. Access passes are provided with your stay -- check availability upon arrival as these shared amenities can be popular during peak times.



Exterior lighting is minimal by design to preserve the stunning dark sky -- bring a flashlight for evening walks and enjoy some of the best stargazing on the California coast.



Whale watching season runs from December through April -- grab the binoculars and watch for gray whale spouts from your window. Spring (April-June) brings a wildflower show across the coastal meadows -- lupine, poppies, and iris paint the landscape. Summer (June-September) brings the warmest days and longest light. Morning fog is common along the coast -- it usually burns off by midday.



Up to 2 dogs are welcome. Please keep dogs on leash on trails and clean up after them.



Cell service can be spotty along the coast. The home has WiFi for staying connected.
