Set high above the landscape in Prefumo Canyon, this extraordinary 56± acre private estate offers commanding, unobstructed views of the Pacific Ocean, Morro Rock, the Seven Sisters, Irish Hills, and the city lights of San Luis Obispo—one of the Central Coast’s most iconic vantage points. Despite its peaceful seclusion, the property is located approximately 5.5 miles from downtown San Luis Obispo, about 20 minutes to Avila Beach, and within easy reach of Morro Bay, Montaña de Oro State Park, wineries, shopping, schools, and the regional airport. The custom-built main residence (2004) is thoughtfully designed to embrace its setting, featuring vaulted tongue-and-groove cedar ceilings, walls of glass, skylights, and seamless indoor-outdoor flow. The flexible floor plan includes four bedrooms, three bathrooms, a media room, office, and bonus room or optional fifth bedroom, all arranged to maximize privacy and views. The great room is anchored by a sculptural serpentine stone wall built from on-site stone, a gas fireplace, wraparound windows, and French doors opening to panoramic patios. The kitchen and dining areas offer vaulted beam ceilings, a generous center island, expansive picture windows, and direct access to outdoor entertaining spaces. The main-level primary suite, privately positioned in its own wing, features exposed beam ceilings, patio access, and a spa-inspired bath with a travertine steam shower and soaking tub oriented toward the horizon. A detached cabin, fully separated from the main residence, provides a full kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, living and dining areas, laundry, and dedicated storage/workshop space—ideal for guests, extended stays, or multigenerational living. The land invites exploration with private hiking, abundant wildlife, and ever-changing natural scenery. The property is extensively engineered for comfort and resilience, offering multiple water sources, filtration and storage systems, owned solar with battery backup, a propane-powered generator, fire-resistant construction, and infrastructure designed for reliable year-round living.
