Perfectly placed on Big Sur's Clear Ridge Road above Pfeiffer Beach, this very private twenty acre property sits 1,100 feet above the surf, with dramatic South Coast and Pacific Ocean views. Just south of Andrew Molera State Park, Clear Ridge is known for remaining clear even as the fog rolls in below. This magical place was the retreat of Big Sur's original real estate legend, Hank Adams, and it is undoubtedly one of the best home sites in all of Big Sur.
