Contact me for detailed information about available properties in the coastal communities along Highway 1.

You will discover that real estate in Mendocino, Fort Bragg and neighboring communities is enticingly more affordable than in most other areas with so much to offer. 
 
Choices range from a home with awe-inspiring ocean views to one nestled among towering redwoods; from horse property with barns to quaint Victorians in town; from the romantic to the rustic; from the elegant to the contemporary. Enchanting Bed and Breakfasts and a variety of other business opportunities are also available.
 
The Mendocino Coast offers a year-round smorgasbord of events, among many others: the annual two-week long Mendocino Music Festival, the Mendocino Film Festival, Operas by Opera Fresca, the Mendocino Theater Company, the Mendocino Art Center, the extraordinary 47 acre Botanical Gardens and the College of the Redwoods.  

The Woods is an exceptionally attractive Senior Retirement Community, less than five minutes east of Highway 1.  It is situated among the redwoods in Little River and has an Assisted Living adjunct, The Lodge at the Woods

The weather has an undeserved reputation for being rainy and foggy; in reality, there are many more clear, blue-skied and sunny days than is rumored.

Traffic is a non-issue.  

Note: The population numbers that follow are approximations based on the 2000 census by zip code, not city limits: 

Mendocino (population 2,223), is an historical village, well-known for its New England Victorian style buildings, its enticing shops and art galleries galore, its gracious Bed and Breakfasts, its outstanding restaurants, and the historic Mendocino Hotel.  All are within view of the waves crashing against the cliffs. The very lively, robust community life includes food and wine festivals, art openings, readings at the Gallery Bookshop, the annual, quintessentially Americana Fourth of July Parade, the Christmas Candle  Light Tour of Bed and Breakfast Inns, and much more. Markets, bakeries, health food store, schools, churches, post office, etc. are all within walking distance of each other!   

Fort Bragg  (population 14,410), 15 minutes north of Mendocino, offers wonderful opportunities to purchase property in a seaside town.  (Not to be confused with the military installation in North Carolina).  It is the largest city on the Mendocino Coast, consequently, the real estate market has a wide range of prices and a variety of architectural styles from which to choose. 

Among Fort Bragg's many attractions is a four screen movie theater, many small specialty shops and exceptional restaurants, the active fishing port in Noyo Harbor, and the famous Skunk Train. It is home to a Starbucks, the Harvest Market, Safeway, and numerous stores which can fulfill all of one's grocery, bakery, household, and  gift needs. The Mendocino Coast District Hospital is also located there.

Albion (population 1,035) is a tiny village less than 15 minutes south of Mendocino on Highway 1. Ocean view and forested properties are available here as well.  In spite of its small size, there is a post office, hardware store, market with deli, and a gas station. Amazingly, it has two ocean-view, world-class restaurants within minutes of each other: the Ledford House and the Albion River Inn.  A well-loved and inviting B&B, the Fensalden Inn, is just a couple of minutes to the east of Highway 1.  Built in 1860, it was originally a stage-coach stop.

All along the Coast are additional delightful places to stay, including the Little River Inn with its 9-hole golf course, the Seafoam Lodge, and the Inn at Schoolhouse Creek, each with ocean views and its own unique appeal.
