Baleen is a custom home perched on a private acre atop a breathtaking ocean bluff that provides guests with luxury, serenity, and renewal. Minutes from beach, supplies, and fabulous coastal restaurants. The space Baleen is a luxury property with spectacular ocean views, perfect for a family outing or surprise romantic getaway. This custom cliffside home overlooks Albion's picturesque Navarro Beach, where the Navarro River meets the Pacific Ocean. Listen to the soothing sounds of the waves from the wrap-around deck, witness the sun sink into the cobalt sea, and relax and soak in the panoramic views. Grab a few fluffy towels and stargaze on a cool, clear night in the secluded hot tub with room for six. An established, popular vacation home on the Mendocino coast, Baleen - named for the blue whales (Balaenoptera musculus) that can be seen from the deck during migration - was exquisitely furnished by a professional decorator and completely renovated from the ground up. It is a meticulous melding of comfort and serenity, and includes: - Two private, gorgeous bedroom suites (plus two queen-sized sofabeds with custom memory foam mattresses--one in each of 2 TV lounges) - 3 full bathrooms (complete with heated limestone floors) - Full gourmet kitchen - Washer/Dryer Baleen includes all the expected (and unexpected) amenities of a luxury vacation home, including multiple flat-screen TVs, stereo, gorgeous gas stove, granite countertops of rose quartz and Labradorite in the bathrooms, bamboo flooring throughout the first floor, an outdoor hot/cold shower for an "al fresco" experience under sun or stars, and a high-end Hawke telescope for whale-watching. To round out your safety and security, there is an automatic-transfer Generac generator standing by in case of electrical outages. Order breakfast at favorite local hotspot Queenie's Roadhouse Cafe or choose to dine at one of several fine renowned restaurants, including a Michelin star winner, all within a few short miles from your doorstep. Experience the internationally-renowned wineries in Anderson Valley. Take a stroll in downtown Mendocino, soak in the landscape, or take a drive up the coast. Experience Mendocino at a slow, inspired pace. Guest access Please note that there is no direct beach access: you are on a blufftop.
