46480 clear ridge road

This is the property which Big Sur's original legendary realtor, Hank Adams, who knew the properties of Big Sur like no other for decades, called his home. Located just above one of the most beautiful beaches on the planet (Pfeiffer Beach), this property's 20 acres sit on Clear Ridge at precisely the height which offers panoramic views of the Santa Lucia coastal mountain range and it's sunrises, the south coast's meeting with the ocean as far as one can see, and west to the Pacific's horizon and it's glorious sunsets. It is here that one finds a remarkably wide and gently sloped ridge top series of old growth oak studded meadows, if you will, from which those views become even more spectacular. It was in the very center of this setting that Hank chose to build the wood and glass home which he called Teapot. Inside, a wood burning stove with a wall of windows behind it anchors the living room and kitchen, with multiple sliding glass doors opening to the wraparound deck. The master bedroom features ocean views, and a beloved outdoor shower, should one prefer it to the two interior bathrooms. This humble Shangri La is ready to be enjoyed now, but also is a perfect candidate for a new owner to design and build their dream home that takes Hank's Teapot dream to the next level.
