10 Canyon Avenue, Bolinas, CA, 94924
About This Home
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 cafes 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 a hand-carved door depicting 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 leaded-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, check the surf before paddling out, watch the fog roll across the headlands, or simply settle in while listening to the waves breaking below.
