3 Beds ⋅ 4 Baths ⋅ NS26216446 MLS ⋅ Active Status
There are oceanfront homes, and then there are homes that simply could not exist anywhere else. 2431 Sherwood Drive is one of them. Set directly above the Pacific on Cambria’s Marine Terrace, this 1968 residence was designed by Warren Leopold, an artist, craftsman and architectural designer whose story is intertwined with the creative culture of Big Sur. His vision is evident throughout: poured in place exposed aggregate concrete, redwood, stained glass, skylights and unexpected hexagonal spaces designed around light, nature and the ocean. Here, the Pacific is never simply a view. It becomes part of the house. Expansive new dual pane windows frame more than 180 degrees of coastline. Wraparound decks, a protected courtyard and private concrete stairs to the tide pools create an extraordinary connection to the water. Inside, kitchen, dining and living spaces flow around the view. Built in seating, fireplaces, redwood detailing, stone and slate surfaces, and distinctive stained glass incorporating thin slices of agate lend warmth and character. Three ensuite bedrooms offer distinctive spaces. The upper level primary suite is reached through a dramatic stained glass lined turret and features wraparound windows, a domed skylight, fireplace, ocean view soaking tub, office and walk in closet. Downstairs, a second ensuite bedroom has a fireplace. A separate living area with an additional ensuite bedroom, laundry, living space and private entrance offers flexibility for guests and extended stays. Outside, Monterey cypress, secluded patios, ocean view decks and the protected bluff setting offer privacy and an intimate connection to the coastline. Near the gateway to Big Sur and down the coast from Hearst Castle, the setting evokes an earlier, more romantic chapter of coastal California. The home maintains an active vacation rental license, recently renewed by the owners. Cambria’s spacing restrictions limit new vacation rental approvals, making this an especially valuable attribute. Offered at the same price at which it last sold on the open market in 2024, this is an opportunity to acquire one of Cambria’s most distinctive oceanfront residences at an exceptional value. This is not a conventional coastal home, and it was never intended to be. An original expression of Big Sur architecture, bold, unconventional and deeply connected to its setting, 2431 Sherwood Drive offers something that cannot simply be recreated.

Set on an oversized parcel encompassing four original subdivision lots in Cambria's Marine Terrace neighborhood, 380 Drake Street is a Mediterranean-style home where ocean views, sun-filled living spaces, and lush gardens come together just a short walk from the coast. A stone pathway winds through drought-tolerant landscaping to the front entrance. Inside, warm wood finishes, tiled floors, exposed beams, and architectural ceiling details give the home its character. Skylights bring natural light into the open living spaces, where a gas fireplace anchors the living room and the dining area looks toward the Pacific. The kitchen features stone countertops, wood cabinetry, quality appliances, a walk-in pantry, and a generous peninsula with bar seating. Everyday living takes place entirely on this street-level floor, including the primary suite, guest bathroom, and an office with extensive built-ins. The primary bedroom has a particularly inviting feature: a window-lined sitting area that projects into the garden, surrounded by greenery and natural light. It's an intimate space that feels tucked away from the rest of the house. Just beyond the dining room, an enclosed ocean-view patio offers a place to enjoy morning coffee, watch the changing coastal light, or entertain friends around the wet bar, all while protected from the ocean breeze. From here, stairs lead into the gardens below. Stone pathways weave through flowering plants and established landscaping, connecting a koi pond, a bougainvillea-covered pergola with a swing, and a spacious paved gathering area. The gardens wrap around the home, creating a series of private outdoor spaces to explore and enjoy. Downstairs, two additional bedrooms, a guest bathroom, and an oversized laundry room provide space for family and visitors. Extensive storage, a dumbwaiter, a two-car garage, driveway parking, and approximately three additional gravel parking spaces add practicality. Life here extends well beyond the property. Walk down to the ocean and nearby beach access, explore the coastal trails of Fiscalini Ranch Preserve, or spend an afternoon browsing Cambria's shops, restaurants, and tasting rooms. And when the mood strikes, Paso Robles wine country is an easy drive inland.
