California is home to some of the most incredible properties in the world. And we know you like to watch as much as we do, so each week we’re taking a peek inside famous homes and listings in our recurring feature—California Cribs.
This week, we’re taking a peek into the Newell Ranch in Big Sur!
This 350-acre coastal ranch features a number of residential structures with a combined 12 bedrooms and 11 baths across more than 9,800 square feet of interior living space. The original Ranch House is a sweeping three bedroom residence with an adjacent two bedroom guest house.
Light-filled rooms emphasize the use of natural materials including Purpleheart redwood timbers, brick, rustic stone, as soaring windows and glass sliders capture the mesmerizing coastline. Both an indoor and outdoor pool reside on this original homestead, where covered patios overlook a central fountain and winding paths bind European-inspired gardens to idyllic viewing points perched above the crashing waves.
The Old Log Barn sits closest to the Ranch House, with one bedroom and one bathroom, while the four remaining buildings are located on the other side of the redwood grove. A private access road connects all of the homesites situated along the scenic coastal range.
The largest of the additional homes is Bloomin’ Adeline, a two bedroom and two bathroom retreat with a studio guesthouse. Clean angular lines, contemporary lighting, and modern appliances bring a sleek atmosphere to this retreat nestled between the canyon, forest and water. Also modern in design is the two-bedroom Blueberry’s Barn, and the nearby studio loft, Red Door Barn.
Expansive decks, sweeping patios, and secluded paths allow for a lifestyle centered on the outdoors. Watch the grey whale migration, condors taking flight and red-tailed hawks nesting in the canyon.
The sprawling property also leaves plenty of room for potential development! And for easy in-and-out access, take advantage of the property’s private helipad.
Jonathan Spencer of Compass holds the listing, being offered at $22 million.
