This pastoral four-acre generational property with a farmhouse, guest quarters, and horse arena is a few miles to the ocean shores and contiguous to the Point Reyes National Seashore, the Philip Burton Wilderness, and the traditional homelands of the Coast Miwok. Across the great Highway 1 is the Golden Gate National Park which includes Bolinas Ridge and its many trails and creeks.

This expansive land is a haven for wildlife, where you can often spot deer roaming freely and enjoy the delicate flutters of hummingbirds and butterflies. The Olema Valley is a flyway for many migratory birds. Anna's Hummingbird is considered local and stays year-round within a few miles of the coast while Rufous and Allen's Hummingbirds migrate through the valley.

Originally built in the early 1900s, the main house is characteristic of an architectural farmhouse style that has simple, symmetrical lines, high ceilings, and predominantly wood materials. It has a traditional pitched roof and a welcoming wraparound porch.

There are two wings to the floor plan. The northwest wing faces the beautiful Willow trees and north toward the Inverness Ridge. These rooms exude a warm, sunlit atmosphere, featuring three bedrooms and one bathroom.

The heart of the home is the kitchen, a gathering space offering a blend of comfort and functionality.

An additional family room is a transitional passageway between the two wings offering a second wood-burning stove.

The southwest wing provides an additional bedroom, laundry room, bathroom, and spacious den that faces a sloping pasture and a lush landscape.

The private detached guest house features a separate bedroom, bathroom, loft, kitchenette, and deck. The surrounding view is timeless.
