Follow the long, winding driveway and discover a petite 1912 cottage tucked away on a rare and remarkably private 3.5-acre parcel in Mendocino. While the 2 bedroom cottage awaits restoration, the land itself is rich with beauty, possibility, and a connection to an earlier way of life.Fruit trees, open meadows, and forest paths invite leisurely walks and quiet afternoons. A fenced vegetable garden, flower-festooned chicken coop, and detached sleeping room enhance the property's small-farm charm. It's easy to imagine hanging laundry on the clothesline, tending the garden, or spending the afternoon with nothing more pressing than the next chapter of a good book.Stretching from Gurley Lane all the way to Calypso Lane, the property offers a magical combination of privacy, usable acreage, and natural beauty. Existing infrastructure includes a well and septic system, with the additional option of connecting to the Mendocino Community Services District. Buyers may wish to explore the potential for a second residence with Mendocino County Planning and Building Services.Humble, peaceful, and deeply rooted in its surroundings, this is the kind of property that recalls the Mendocino of generations past--a place where nature sets the pace and simplicity feels like a luxury. Offers will be reviewed on July 1st at 5PM.
