Property Description
NORTHERN BIG SUR NATURE LOVER'S SANCTUARY: This 120 acre parcel in the upper Garrapatos watershed is a pristine, private mountain sanctuary with an abundance of pure spring water and extraordinary views of the Santa Lucia mountains, sacred Pico Blanco, the Palo Colorado ridges, and the immense Pacific Ocean. With it's amazing flora and fauna of bobcats, foxes, deer, eagles, hawks and more, it's like having one's own small game reserve. Night time descends with a myriad of stars and low white clouds, like small waves slowly moving up into the canyons and valleys creating small islands of the surrounding peaks. Access to the land is from the Hoist at the top of Palo Colorado road which branches off from Highway One, thirteen miles south of Carmel and it's excellent amenities. A gated private road leads up to the property past redwoods, madrones, and oak trees, exuding the smell of the lush vegetation so unique to the area. A building site has been graded as well. This is a rare nature lover's sanctuary "far from the madding crowd" to quote Thomas Hardy...a rarity in our increasingly crowded world.
