Gualala 2BR craftsman home with ocean views, deck & EV charger

Summary:

Craftsman detail runs through this Gualala retreat — exposed beam ceilings, a lofted layout, and partial ocean views from the spacious deck. Cook on the gas range, draw a sunset bath in the soaking tub, and let the in-floor radiant heat warm cool nights. Sleeps 6 in 2 bedrooms with an EV charger.



The Space:

It's all in the details at this striking craftsman home here in the landscape of Gualala! Boasting unmatched exposed beam ceilings, partial ocean views from the spacious deck, and a lofted layout that will give everyone their own piece of paradise, there will be no need to leave this oasis.



Start mornings out slow with a warm cup of coffee in the ocean breeze and let the chef of the group whip up a tasty breakfast for the whole gang in the perfectly equipped kitchen boasting a gas range and all of the appliances of home.



After a full day of beach activities, draw a bath in the soaking tub as the dazzling colors of the sunset filter through the trees. When nights cool down, the in-floor radiant heated fir wood floors will be just the ticket to slip right into relaxation mode.

House and property was gorgeous, clean and cozy. We loved the book nook in the sun. Hot water system did malfunction a few times so that was inconvenient but the house managers were awesome and attentive so it wasn’t a problem. Loved this place, pictures do not do it justice!

Perfect Relaxation House

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! My daughters loved the window seats for reading and the porch was an excellent place to relax and watch the ocean. The claw foot tub was a luxury! We’d definitely stay here again!

peaceful ocean view home

This house was a perfect getaway to recharge our family's batteries. Fast wireless internet (2 kids doing Zoom school classes was no problem) and the views of the ocean from the deck and master bedroom are amazing. Only a 10 minute walk to Cook's Beach. The neighborhood is very dark and quiet so the stargazing at night was really something special.

Tucked away gem

Me and my wife have been visiting the north coast a few times a year for almost a decade now and we always stay in VRBOs. We normally try and book unique homes that embody the vibe of the area. This home was just exactly what we look for. Clean, accommodating and eccentric in the right ways. Would recommend.

Loved the home, the view was great, and decorating was delightful.

The home is obviously loved by the owners who have a great tastes. If you want to watch tv, it is not located in the best place, but we never watched it as the view was great. The walkway to the house is very bumpy and a bit of a slope.
