Property Description
Situated at the gateway to one of the most desirable locations on the Mendocino Coast, the Northbound Whale is steeped in the early history of Little River with its elegance and graceful charm, a period piece of Victorian style architecture, that was popular with the early settlers here. Much of living here is the outdoor experience, and this property has proximity to Van Damme State Park, with a path to the beach and an additional 300 acres of spectacular coastal trails, over the old Spring Ranch, being accessible and virtually on your doorstep. The current owners have taken extraordinary steps to renovate this home during their stewardship from the foundation up, and it is now time for new owners to carry on with the love that they have for this historic home. Featuring two bedrooms upstairs, with the south facing bedroom enjoying views of Little River bay, dormers add to the character and a half bath has been added as a convenience. You will love the reading nook with a day bed in the hallway between the bedrooms as a place of relaxation. Downstairs, a bonus room has been used as an additional sleeping room for guests but could also be a home office. A modern kitchen was part of the renovation that anyone with culinary interests will enjoy. The dining area has ample room for entertaining guests, while the French doors allow for the gathering to spill outside to an inviting patio with views of the adjacent coastal forest. The living room still provides the feeling of rustic charm with the cozy fireplace still the centerpiece, but now conveniently is gas, which was engineered to also provide heat for the upstairs bedrooms as well. This home would not be complete without a south-facing sunroom. Not only does the sunroom bring passive warmth to the home but is an inviting room, that draws one in, and suggests it would be nice to stay a while. The main bathroom is a marvel that simply was not available to the early builders of the times but helps put the finishing touches on bringing this historic home into the modern era. For the Buyer who is wanting supplemental income, the North Bound Whale is a perfect balance of a coastal retreat second home but adding vacation rental producing income. Guests will find this home a popular place for the same reasons that an owner will enjoy their time here.Conveniences are just minutes away including Little River Inn with its fine dining and golf course to the town of Mendocino with its restaurants, shops and galleries.
