Set just outside Cayucos, this exceptional 40 acre ranch offers privacy, scale, and versatility in one of the Central Coast’s most desirable rural settings. Rolling hills frame the property, creating a natural sense of seclusion while remaining just minutes from the beach and town. A sense of rural elegance defines the property, blending refined design with the relaxed beauty of the surrounding landscape.
The main residence spans approximately 3,249 square feet and features 3 bedrooms and 2 and a half baths. Thoughtfully constructed with straw bale construction, the home offers remarkable insulation, energy efficiency, and a quiet, solid feel throughout. Low E windows enhance comfort and efficiency while welcoming natural light and showcasing the surrounding landscape. Inside, tumbled travertine floors add warmth and timeless character, complementing the home’s organic design. Generous living spaces include expansive windows and multiple gathering areas that provide a comfortable balance of openness and warmth. Integrated smart lighting enhances both convenience and ambiance, blending modern functionality with the relaxed ranch setting.
A detached three car garage adds practicality, while the separate 1,089 square foot one bedroom one bath residence offers flexibility for guests, extended family, rental income, or on site caretakers.
The land itself is the true highlight. Forty acres of gently rolling terrain provide usable ground with potential for equestrian use, small scale agriculture, vineyard, or simply wide open space to enjoy. Mature trees, established greenery, and natural contours create privacy and visual interest throughout the property.
This is a rare opportunity to own a substantial ranch estate just outside Cayucos, where coastal proximity meets rural freedom. Whether envisioned as a private retreat, multi generational compound, or working ranch, the possibilities here are significant.
