luxury house with sea view for sale Inverness, United States

Located for optimal ocean roar and access to beach town amenities, this classic Bolinas sanctuary stands as a reminder that the most extraordinary places are the ones that can’t be duplicated. Artisanal craftmanship meets rugged coastal beauty in this one-of-a-kind retreat. Shaped by hand and weathered by salt air, 10 Canyon Avenue carries a unique authenticity. With a glimpse of the ocean from the main residence to stunning views from the top deck, it’s just a short stroll to the sand, coastal trails, and Bolinas’ beloved cafés and shops. Here, days are measured by the tides, changing light, and simple pleasures of life by the sea. Living area of the main residence is anchored by a wood-burning fireplace and offers space for both gathering and quiet retreat. The lower level provides private guest quarters, full bath, sauna, a whimsical turret and custom hand-carved door depicting three whales. At the top of the property, two detached cabins on a roomy deck offer versatile use. From private Canyon Avenue, handcrafted brick steps rise to a welcoming patio, the perfect spot for slow mornings, hot coffee, and soothing sea air. A hand-carved Dutch door is bejeweled by a yin yang stained-glass window that casts colorful streams of light across the interior. Warm knotty pine walls, seasoned fir floors, wood ceilings, and selected vintage stained glass frame a feeling, not just a house. A second set of exterior steps leads to a secluded hot tub overlooking the coastline, offering an unforgettable vantage point to soak under star-filled skies. At dawn, it's the spot to check the surf before paddling out, watch the fog roll across the headlands, or simply settle in while listening to the waves breaking below.

This isn't just a home, it's a front-row seat to California's most iconic coastal lifestyle, wrapped in history, creativity, and rare exclusivity. Welcome to 99 Brighton, a surfer's paradise and an extraordinary opportunity to own one of Northern California's most legendary oceanfront estates. Offered for the first time in 30 years, you are invited to step into a legacy property that has long served as a sanctuary for artists, visionaries, and ocean-lovers seeking something truly special. Set along nearly 400 feet of pristine Pacific coastline in the coveted enclave of Bolinas, this private, gated retreat captures the essence of effortless coastal living just moments from San Francisco. The setting is nothing short of breathtaking - sweeping views stretch from Stinson Beach across the horizon and up the rugged Bolinas coastline, with the city skyline shimmering in the distance. Previously owned by Jefferson Starship's Grace Slick, the property reflects a rich cultural legacy, having hosted icons like Jerry Garcia and David Crosby. The spirit of creativity still lingers, most notably in the expansive family room, once home to late-night jam sessions and musical collaboration that helped shape an era. The grounds are equally unforgettable: a rare, guitar-shaped pool, sprawling flat lawn, hot tub, sauna, and multiple decks and patios designed for front-row views of the crashing surf below. Every room is oriented toward the ocean, immersing you in the rhythm and beauty of the coast. This is more than a residence, it's a legacy offering, a lifestyle, and a chance to own a meaningful piece of California history. Opportunities like this don't just come along - they're passed down. The owner will also consider selling 1/4, 1/3 or 1/2 shares in the property and fractional ownership paperwork is ready if needed.
