Capurro Ranch at Moss Landing - Moss Landing House - 5BR with cottage at Elkhorn Slough

You won't believe the views from this one-of-a-kind property overlooking the ocean and the famed Elkhorn Slough! Perched on a bluff midway between Monterey and Santa Cruz, set amid working lettuce and strawberry fields, this 5-bedroom 1950s ranch home has commanding views of the tidal wetlands—a haven for birds, otters, seals and other wildlife. From here you can fish, whale watch, kayak, or explore some of the most lovely beaches in California—and you're just minutes from Moss Landing, a quaint beach town known for great seafood restaurants, cafes and galleries. Enter and step down to the ocean view living room with a leather sofa and chairs facing a large fireplace. Immediately adjacent, the family room has a second fireplace, a large TV, a game table that seats four, and access to a brick courtyard with chairs for lounging and a pergola for shade. There's also a grassy yard and a second patio with an upholstered sectional, a firepit, a Genesis gas barbecue, and a table and chairs for outdoor dining. The property's history as a working ranch home is apparent in the rustic, mid-Century decor: miles of redwood paneling, vintage tile, and extensive use of brick and flagstone. The ranch style kitchen has a dining table for eight (with leaf), a five-burner electric cooktop, built-in double ovens, and a restaurant-style refrigerator. A second refrigerator with top freezer is located in the adjoining laundry room, which doubles as a second prep kitchen. The home has five bedrooms and four full baths. There are four bedrooms and three baths in the main house; the separate guest cottage is in back. The master suite—with garden, ocean and estuary views—has a King bed, a mirrored dressing area, extensive closets, and an en suite bath with a shower and a "walk-in" tub. The adjoining workout room has a built-in ballet barre (bring your exercise mats!). The other three bedrooms (Queen, Double, and two XL twins) share two full baths with showers: one bath is located in the hall; the other is adjacent to the kitchen and laundry room. The private guest cottage has a Queen bed, TV, leather chair, window seat, and a kitchenette. There's bar seating for two along with a four-burner electric range, an apartment size refrigerator, and a petite Cuisinart coffee maker. Located at the end of a palm-lined drive, this is the perfect home for lovers of the outdoors and a great base to explore all the natural wonders of the Monterey Peninsula.
