A rare opportunity. An entire 100-acre parcel with a canyon all your own, and unmarred, natural vistas in every direction. Owned & loved for a half century by a single family, the private, accessible canyon location is hikeable to Drake's beach and just 11 scenic minutes from the HR gatehouse. Two homes designed by renowned architect Andy Neumann integrate exquisite light and incomparable views. The homes are smaller but smarter, reducing the environmental footprint, efficient to heat and cool, solid and sound. Each house has a spare room that could easily be turned into a third bedroom, and lots of clever built-in storage space. In addition, two detached garages provide ample room for five vehicles. All has been diligently permitted, and there are creative options for additions or conversions if desired. The 40-year-old macadamia orchard is a legitimate agricultural project with the benefits that accrue, but even if left unattended, it is a lovely landscape that softens, cools, imbues the air with the fragrance of blossoms, and provides a haven for butterflies, birds, and bees. In addition, there is a row of thriving citrus trees, and mature native plant landscaping. This is private, secure, off-grid living with reliable water from two sources and carefully maintained fire-safety guidelines -- a remarkable, self-sufficient oasis with immediate access to some of California's most wondrous and pristine landscape and coastline. There is nothing like it available here or anywhere else. In uncertain times, this is the place to land.
