JUGHANDLE HIDEAWAY

Curb appeal: it's a term usually reserved for homes that, when for sale, are pleasing to the eye of the buyer. This home is not for sale, but if it were, it would certainly fit the description!

Once part of a vast land holding, Jughandle Hideaway was the custom-built home of the matriarch of the family that deeded the 1000 acre Jughandle reserve to the state of California. A long, winding drive leads to this distinctive pavilion style home.

The minute you enter through the leaded glass front door, you will be impressed by the attention to detail given this Mendocino coast home. Fine hardwoods adorn much of the built-in furniture, dimmers on many of the lights allow you to control your ambience and the large windows and decks take full advantage of the coastal and wooded splendor surrounding. The master bath offers the unique feature of a Japanese soaking tub - not too wide but deep enough to nearly immerse yourself standing up! Without going into much more detail, we'll let the photos here speak for themselves.

Given that you would probably never find the home without a map, it is surprising how conveniently located this home is: just a ten minute walk from Jughandle Reserve, the beach and a five minute drive to either Mendocino or Fort Bragg. Nevertheless, if you're looking for a retreat from the modern world, you would be hard pressed to get farther away.
