In a quieter, residential area of the Historic Mendocino Village, this home has been lovingly cared for over the years and has been in the same family since 1952. Within a short distance to shopping, groceries, post office, banking, restaurants, parks and beaches..it's quite possible one would never want to leave. It's that close to, well just about everything. The home currently enjoys a water allotment for 4 bedrooms. There is the potential to apply for an additional detached sleeping unit with full bathroom and shift one bedroom over to this unit. An existing structure, which previously had been a detached bath house and storage shed, might provide an easier path for this sleeping unit with its existing footprint. There is a garage for convenience and helping keep your four wheeled friend(s) protected from the elements. The lot is a large one and mature gardens and plantings currently occupy the inner courtyard of the property while the vacant open space on the south on the lot is a blank canvas for someone who wants to continue with their own gardening concepts.

The coastal climate here on the Mendocino Coast also brings people from all over to vacation and relax in comfort where this edge of the continent meets the Pacific Ocean.
